Song: A Boy And His Machine Gun
Band: Matthew Good Band
Album: Beautiful Midnight
Tabbed by: Devil Monkey <swarm@cyberus.ca>

This whole song is tuned down a half step, so keep that in mind.

Verse:

B5 B5/Bb             B5           B5/Bb
Don\'t move, stay right where you are
B5 B5/Bb   B5    B5/Bb
Talking can only give you away
E5                           C#m5
And there\'s so nothing to say

(Same pattern)
The voices say hello
Imprisoned, they\'re invisible
               E5                 C#m5
But we look a lot alike, we look a lot alike

This is boring, all we talk about is you
C\'mon give me a reason
          E5              C#m5
A boy and his machine gun


Chorus:
E          B   G#m      F#
If you\'re fi-nished strugglin\'
E       B  G#m    F#
Are ya fr-ee tonight?
E        B            G#m
Did they stick you in here
    F#            E (let fade)
Cuz you weren\'t workin right?

Verse:
Don\'t move, stay just like you are
You look sane, motionless like that
So very flat
It\'s amazin what velocity can do
When human beings are in season
                 E5              C#m5
A boy and his machine gun
                        E5         C#m5
If you\'re quiet we might see some

Chorus:
When you\'re finished strugglin\'
Are ya free tonight?
Did they stick you in here
Cuz you weren\'t workin\' right?
E, B, G#m, F#

(same pattern)
There\'s a TV in every room
And it\'s free, even pay-per-view
Which you\'ll need if no one\'s
Gonna visit you
E
Animal
C#m
Fuckin\' Animal
E
C#m

E   F#    B         C#m
I know who you\'re waiting for
E   F#    B     C#m
            no one\'s comin\' though

Now it changes to this:

--4-4-4s7s2-2-2s7s0-0-0s7s2-2-2s7---------

(over that):

So fuck you and your principals
And fuck whatever made me
Perhaps you think I\'m evil
What does it matter if we\'re crazy?

Then that part repeats, and you end on G#m

One final note: for the verses, I know it\'s power-chords, but for the choruses
and that weird closing bridge thing, you can use open chords or power-chords,
it\'s up to you.
