It's easy to sing but you just keep on humming along<br>
It's easy to sing but you just keep on humming along<br>
Did you hear that, I got a real bad feeling<br>
Did you hear that, I got a real bad feeling<br>
How many moles do you suppose they're keeping?<br>
How many bones do you suppose they're keeping?<br>
Don't make a sound they're not dead, just sleeping
Don't make a sound they're not dead, just sleeping




Dire, dire, dire, it's fleeting (5x)<br>
Dire, dire, dire, it's fleeting (5x)<br>
Wake up, you never looked so glum<br>
Tell me how will we know they can't hear us coming?<br>
It's easy for me, I got a headstart running away<br>
Keep up or your disease spread quick<br>
So how did you learn to be sick, so cunning<br>
It's easy to sing but you just keep on humming along<br>
Did you hear that, I got a real bad feeling<br>
How many moles do you suppose they're keeping?<br>
Don't make a sound they're not dead, just sleeping

Lyrics

Wake up, you never looked so glum
Tell me how will we know they can't hear us coming?
It's easy for me, I got a headstart running away
Keep up or your disease spread quick
So how did you learn to be sick, so cunning
It's easy to sing but you just keep on humming along
Did you hear that, I got a real bad feeling
How many bones do you suppose they're keeping?
Don't make a sound they're not dead, just sleeping


Dire, dire, dire, it's fleeting (5x)

Guitar Tab

Drop-D

riff one - play 2x:

    1    +    2    +    3    +    4    +
D   3              0              6
A   3              0              6
D---3--------------0---------0----6----0----


then:

     1    +    2    +    3    +    4    +
D    3    2    3    0              6    0
A    3    2    3    0              6    0
D----3----2----3----0---------0----6----0----


then:

     1    +    2    +    3    +    4    +
D    3    5    3    0              6    0
A    3    5    3    0              6    0
D----3----5----3----0---------0----6----0----


"Dire, It's fleeting" part:

faster tempo - bend the D notes on the downbeats, release them on the offbeats:

     1  +  2  +  3  +  4  +
D
A    5b r  5b r  5b r  5b r
D-----------------------------


bass part (I think it's just bass) = something like this on low D string:

     1    +    2    +    3    +    4    +
D----2-/--3----3--/-0---------3-/--5----5--/0---


ending (slow tempo): let all notes ring

     1    +    2    +    3    +    4    +  
D    0     
A    0 
D    0--------------------------------------
D    3                             3    5
A    3                             3    5
D    3-----------------------------3----5---
