Lets Save Tony Orlandos House tab

Lets Save Tony Orlandos House

Yo La Tengo
Let's Save Tony Orlando's House
And then nothing turned itself inside-out (2000)

Its a simple, but lovely song. I added the bass tab because I love it.

Fmaj7              Ebmaj7
"We Proudly Welcome Tony Orlando"
Fmaj7                 Ebmaj7
The state fair marquee reads
Fmaj7                    Ebmaj7               Fmaj7
Inside, a thousand people with yellow ribbons sing
                  Ebmaj7
And clap on 1 and 3

          Fmaj7
Watch him burn
Ebmaj7
He's dropping to his knees
          Fmaj7
Watch him burn
Ebmaj7
A medley: hits from Grease
          Fmaj7
Watch him burn
Ebmaj7                  Bb Gm
He never fails to please

main riff

Fmaj7              Ebmaj7
Meanwhile in Tahoe outside Casa Tony
Fmaj7           Ebmaj7
Wet rags of gasoline
Fmaj7                        Ebmaj7             Fmaj7
A jealous Frankie Valli says, "Dawn, I want you back"
                             Ebmaj7
Lights a match and counts to three

         Fmaj7
Watch it burn
Ebmaj7
Reluctantly he leaves
         Fmaj7
Watch it burn
      Ebmaj7
Acrid smoke making him wheeze
         Fmaj7
Watch it burn 
         Ebmaj7                   Bb Gm
Humming "Sherry," splits the scene
