From the CD: Last stop this town (single) electroshock blues (album)
Tuning: EADGBe

Notes: I just bought the single today (it's got a great version of "novocaine 
for the soul" on it) and i thought i might as well tab it. (I also bought the
manics new album, and what a f--king waste of £13 that was!)
Key to 
x=mute string.
Tab:

Riff 1: (the toy piano during the verse)
e|-----------------------------------|
B|------0-------4-------0------------|
G|----1-------4-------1---4--2--1----|
D|--2-------4-------2-------------4--|
A|-----------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------|
This riff is pretty much repeated through the whole song (listen to the song
to hear where it is and is not played)

Chords: (during, what you would probably call, the chorus)
    E       B       A       B
e|--0-------7-------5-------7--------|
B|--0-------7-------5-------7--------|
G|--1-------8-------6-------8--------|
D|--2-------9-------7-------9--------|
A|--2-------9-------7-------9--------|
E|--0-------7-------5-------7--------|
These chords are played at the bit with the wierd voice singing "hey, ya, ye ye
he, ya, ye ye" (the record scratching)

muted chord riff:   
                    B A                 A

This riff is played several times, after the synchro break.

O.K. here's the song lyrics: (and also a guide to where the riffs go, in brakets)

(riff 1 x3)
(riff 1 repeated from here....)
Your dead but the world ....


Take a flight and you could be ....

(chords played x4)
hey ha ye ye hey ha ye ya....


(muted chord riff x6)
hey ha ye ye ....
(riff 1 repeated to the chords)
ha ye ye hey ha ye ....


fly away.

(chords played x2 and riff 1 x2)
hey ha ye ye hey ....,
