The_other_side_has__some_guy_(unrecognizable,_at_least_to_me)_screaming,
with_the_words_"The_Anderson_Council"_circling_his_head..._Chris_(the
student_aide)_has_no_clue_what_this_is_all_about_--_a_house_he_lived_in_in
British_Columbia_had_a_big_crate_of_these_mugs_in_the_basement!

@The_Man_Who_Invented_Himself
I_met_this_man_called_Mr_Barrett_or_something_in_the_South_Kensington
Subway_playing_this_tune_on_an_old_guitar.__Anyway_I_gave_him_50p_and
he_showed_me_how_to_play_it.
{This_tune_is_played_on_the_joannah_on_CD_so_it_sounds_natuarally
enough_a_little_different_on_guitar.__These_are_the_chords_but_its
worth_hunting_around_to_get_those_inversions_right.

@SONG:_DO_POLICEMEN_SING?
The_opening_riff_isnt_really_a_chord,
but_tabbed_out_I_guess_it_would_look_like:
Bass_plays_low_E...
Gtr._slides_down_from_XXX9-11-X_on_beat_2,
Then_X12XXX,_and_pull_off_on_the_A_string_to_X02XXX.
The_chord_would_be_Em,_and_in_both_cases
the_two_notes_are_E_and_Bb,_so_lets
just_refer_to_them_as_Hi_and_Lo,_shall_we?
Between_couplets_in_the_verse,
the_Asus2_is_just_X02200,_picked,_with_the
bass_going_up_to_B_on_beat_4.
___Hi_______Lo___________Hi_________Lo
"O_do_policemen_sing?"_I_heard_a_person_cry...
____Hi______Lo__________Hi______________Lo__Asus2
"We_can_do_anything!"_I_heard_the_force_re-_ply...
And_so_on_until...the_chorus:
B:______X24442
E:______X79997_(bass_plays_A)
D:______X57775_(bass_plays_G)
C#:_____X46664
C#maj7:_X46564

Its_true_becauzza...__Never_argue_with_a_rozzer...
D______________C#_________C#maj7
Never_show_him_insolence...
F#___________D#m
Confidence...
The_next_5_measures_are_picked,_but_if_they_were_chords
theyd_be_C#:_9-11-11-10-9-9,_B:_799877,_and_B7:_797877.
Some_might_choose_to_play_these_all_as_7ths_if_they
were_playing_them_as_chords.
_____C#_______________B
Cuz_who_supplies_the_evidence?
_____C#_______________B
Its_not_your_mother,_or_your_lover,
B7
Or_your_best_friends_dog...
...And_back_to_Em_and_the_Hi-Lo_verse_part.
The_end_section:
--------------------|

---2---1---2---1----|

...Our_law_and_or-ders_never-never-never-never-never_gonna_break_down
Repeat_3_times,_and_on_the_last_repeat_(remember_theres
an_extra_"never"),_end_(on_"Down")_with_a_chord_which
might_be_described_as_E5_(add_Bb):_022300.
As_for_the_outro,_it_starts_with_the_same_E5_(addBb)_chord,
then_switches_to_XX4442,_and_up_to_XXX775,_XXX997,_XXX9-12-10,
and_XXX-9-11-9,_as_the_song_fades_out.
