In the cheese pavilion, the only noise I hear
is the sound of someone stacking chairs and mopping up spilled beer

and someone asking questions and basking in the light
G F G [play intro]
of the fifteen fame filled minutes of the fanzine writer
C C/B Am Am C C/B Am Am

C C/B Am G
the revolution is just a T-shirt away
F G C [intro] C/B Am Am
waiting for the great leap forwards
d is a downstroke
u is an upstroke (kind of a lazy, incidental one)
h is a hammer on
* at the end of the last line of [verse part 1], the walk up from the G
to the C *might* be replaced by a walk up from a C to an F, so it'd be
the same fingering as the other lines of the verse, but move the end bit
all up one string
