This is an up-tempo song that I have transferred to acoustic. The Asus4 and A alternating chords need a wah pedal to get the effect as on the record but if you play the note distinctly you can still get the overall feel. Come see me play and I'll show how exactly how it is done. Otherwise I hope the tab is helpful.

Intro chords: E D A (Asus4)

E Dsus2 A Asus4 A alternating

E-------X-X----X-X----------------0---

B-------3-3----2-2--3--2--3--2----0---

G--1-1--2-2----2-2--2--2--2--2---(1)--

D--2-2--0-0----2-2--2--2--2--2---(2)--

A--2-2---------0-0---------------(2)--

E--0-0---------------------------(0)--

For the verses just play each chord twice: EE E D D A A ffr each line.

I'm not worried it's a million miles away

Yeah I saw the news it happens every day

Some Cronkite look-alike numb from what he's reading

Wake me up wake me up it's one of us that's screaming

Chorus:

E A D A

Save this h-o-u-s-e

Save this house the party's gotta end

The welcome mat's worn out & the roof'll never mend

The furniture's on fire this house is a disgrace

Someone change the locks before we trash this place

That's pretty well it.
