Now for the Act III tension builder where our favorite villain (anti-hero?) gets caught monologuing, these are the tabs for "Slipping"
I don't have much prowess for tabs as it is, and the darker/minor the song the more difficult it is for me to transcribe, lemme know of errors or clarifications you can spot
Gm Cm/G
Look at these people
Gm Cm/G
Amazing how sheep'll

Show up for the slaughter
Gm Cm/G
No one condemning you
Gm Cm/G
Lined up like lemmings
Gm Ddim
You led to the water
Gm Cm
Why can’t they see what I see?
Gm Cm
Why can’t they hear the lies?
Gm Cm Gm
Maybe the fees too pricey for them to realize
F#dim Gm Cm/G Gm
Your disguise is slipping
Cm/G Gm Cm
I think you’re slipping!
Gm Cm/G Gm Cm/G
Now that your saviour is still as the grave
Gm Ddim
You’re beginning to fear me!
Gm Cm/G
Like cavemen fear thunder
Gm Cm/G
I still have to wonder
Gm Ddim
Can you really hear me?
Cm/G
I bring you pain
Gm Cm/G Ddim
The kind you can’t suffer quietly

Fire up your brain
Gm Gm
Remind you inside your rioting
F#dim Gm Cm/G Gm

Get a pic, do a blog

Heroes are over with!
Gm Bb
Look at him, not a word
Cm D
Hammer meet Nail!
Gm Bb
Then I win, then I get

All the cash, all the fame

And social change
Gm Bb
Anarchy, that I run

(Chords)
Gm Cm/G
No sign of Penny
Gm Cm/G
Good, I would give anything
Gm Ddim
Not to have her see
Gm Cm/G
It’s gonna be bloody
Gm Cm/G
Head up Billy Buddy
Gm Ddim
There’s no time for mercy
Gm Ddim
Here goes no mercy!
The line "Everything I ever
The line "Everything I ever wanted"
"All the cash...."
It should be "Everything I ever..."
He never finishes the line and that's reflected in the last song with the echoing voices singing (Everything you ever...)
Thanks
Corrected
Also, the lyric is "Anarchy
Also, the lyric is "Anarchy that I run" because although he wants the status quo changed, he wants control over it.
Corrected
Thanks
Where's the last piece?
I really appreciate you taking the time to do all this. Are you going to post the last piece? Where Billy truly becomes Dr. Horrible when Penny dies.
"... Dr. Horrible is here
to make you quake with fear"
"...and I won't feel
a thing."
Soon
I hope to do it tonight
Your vs You're
Fire up your brain
Remind you inside your rioting
Society is slipping
I can buy "your rioting society is slipping"
What if it's:
Fire up your brain.
Remind you, inside you're rioting.
Society is slipping.
It's not society that's rioting. It's you. It's just hidden under the surface.
Minor, I realize. Just my two cents.
I like the 'you're' version
I like the 'you're' version better.
It fits better, makes more sense.
The under the surface thing. ^_^
Agreed
"You're" makes more sense here than "your", especially given the phrasing of the previous verse.
Sheep'll
To me this line was always the internet slang word "sheeple", meaning, quite literally, "sheep people". Usually used for people who cannot form their own political views. It could go either way, though.
Well, you're wrong. Sheep'll
Well, you're wrong.
Sheep'll refers to:
and if you read the previous lines text this supports it....
"Sheep Will"
Amazing how Sheep'll ( Sheep will)
Show up for the slaughter.
