Subject: TAB: Music Machine - "Talk Talk"

OK, here's one of my favorite alienated rants.  It came out in late '66,
but my bar band used to do it as late as '75 - with me alternating between
organ, guitar, and tambourine, while barking the lead vocal at the same
time.

Note: the rhythm guitar is tuned down a minor third; the key riff of the
verses is played F#-E but sounds Eb-Db.

	I won't cry out for justice

	Here's the situation

	Guess I'm down to size
