Harlem Roulette Uke tab by The Mountain Goats

D               G              D
Unknown engines underneath the city
D                   G                   A
Steam pushing up in billows through the grates
        Bm                G              D        G
Frankie Lymon's tracking Seabreeze in a studio in Harlem
Em    A
It's nineteen sixty-eight


D               G              D
Just a pair of tunes to hammer out
D                   G        A
Everybody's off the clock by ten
    Bm        G             D          G
The loneliest people in the whole wide world
        D                  A           D
are the ones you're never going to see again



D                   G           D
Feel so free when I hit the avenue
D              G               A
Nothing like a New York summer night
Bm              G                      
Every dream's a good dream
     D                G
Even awful dreams are good dreams
D                  A
If you're doing it right


D                G               D
Remember soaring higher than the clouds
D               G              A
Get pretty sentimental now and then
    Bm        G             D          G
The loneliest people in the whole wide world
        D                  A           D
are the ones you're never going to see again
 

Bm             G                     D
And four hours North of Portland the radio flips on
         Bm              G                            A
And some no one from the future remembers that you're gone


D              G            D
Armies massing in the dusky distance
D              G               D
Ghosted in the ribbon microphone
Bm             G                 D
Leave a little mark on something maybe
Em              Asus4   A
Take the secret circuit home


D              G               D
Nothing in the shadows but the shadow hands
D               G                    A
Reaching out to sad young frightened men
    Bm        G             D          G
The loneliest people in the whole wide world
        D                  A           D
are the ones you're never going to see again

         Bm        G             D          G
Yeah the loneliest people in the whole wide world
        D                  A           D
are the ones you're never going to see again
