2000 LIGHT YEARS FROM HOME [A start]
(Jagger/Richards)
The "breaks" in this tune are, in my opinion, the coolest part of
the song (Texts of songs ). I only wish I knew what they were; too much for me,
especially stuck with a mere acoustic! Please, somebody, HELP!
Fm
Sun turning 'round with graceful motion
We're setting off with soft explosion
Bbm
Bound for a star with fiery oceans
Ab
It's so very lonely
Bb C Fm
You're a hundred light years from home
Freezing red deserts turn to dark
Energy here in every part
It's so very lonely
you're six hundred light years from home
[Break: Instrumental for first two verse lines, then "it's so
very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home. Then the
two-bars worth of music that normally ends the stanza; then
repeating "it's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years
from home." Back to Intro-type music.]
Bell flight fourteen you can now land
See you on Alpha (?) Boran
Safe on the green desert sand
It's so very lonely
you're two thousand light years from home
[Some music pretty much like the break, but mutating into other
stuff to a beautifully messy end.]

HOW CORRECT IS THIS TAB?
worse better
2000 MAN [well, a start anyways. Pretty close. :-)]
(Jagger/Richards)
[I think the one line of the chorus/bridge/break/whatever ends in
a pun (sun = son), but can't be sure as I'm only listening to the
recording. Any attempt to tab this sucker certainly welcome.]
Intro: Instrumental
A E7 A
Well my name is a number, a piece of plastic film
(A) E7 A
And I grow tiny flowers in my little window sill
D A/Asus4
Don't you know I'm the two thousand man?
D A G A E7
And my kids, they just don't understand me at all
[same chords:]
Though my wife still respects me, I really misuse her
I am having an affair with a random computer
Don't you know I'm the two thousand man?
And my kids, they just don't understand me at all
A D A (A) D A
Oh daddy, be proud of your planet,
A D A E7 A
Oh mommy, be proud of your sun
A D A (A) D A
Oh daddy, be proud of your planet
A D A E7 A
Oh mommy, be proud of your sun
D(?)
Oh daddy, is your brain still flashing
B7 E7
like it did when you were young?
A
Or did you come down crashing
E7 A
seeing all the things you'd done?
E7 A
Oh it's a big put - on
A D A
Oh daddy, be proud of your planet
(A) E7 A
Oh mommy, be proud of your sun
A D A
Oh daddy, be proud of your planet
(A) E7 A
Oh mommy, be proud of your sun
[Beat a bit on a power E, then play these four lines again.
Moving to D]
D A/Asus4
Don't you know I'm the two thousand man?

**** NOTE: I BROKE THE SONG DOWN INTO 7 VERSES. I TRIED TO SHOW
THE STRUMMING PATTERN AND THE CHORDS FOR THE FIRST 5
VERSES. THE REST OF THE SONG WILL CONTINUE IN BASICALLY
THE SAME MANNER.
**** THE TWO MAIN STRUMMING PATTERNS ARE:
B (let ring) D D E E

AND
D D E E D D B (let ring)
/ / / / / / /
VERSE 1:
(Making it), making it, doesn't matter how many
(Taking it), taking it
Well, I can't shake it
Off a my back, damn monkey
It's either too tight, or too slack
VERSE 2:
(Ninety nine), that's all it is, oooh
(Ninety nine)
How much, (ninety nine)
Now, ninety nine
You better hack it, baby (ninety nine)
VERSE 3:
Yeah, my time exploded, space blew up
Need something in my dixie cup

There's the best pair of lips I've kissed all night
verse 4:
How much,(ninety nine), give it to me
I'll pay you later
999, (ninety nine)
Got a pocket calculator, (ninety nine)
Yeah wake up, it don't make no sense
Nickles and dimes

Yeah, the lion and lamb are locked in an embrace
You won't get it 'till it's in your face
Oooh, I got me out of deeper red
Don't panic, (999)
(Ninety nine), ah, it's where I want to be
Yeah, oh (ninety nine)
A useful member of society, huh (999)
VERSE 6:
(Ninety nine), I need a little love and old money
Gimme (ninety nine), ninety nine (gimme, gimme)
(999) well, I can't shake it off a my back
God damn monkey
Yeah, it's too tight or it's too slack
(999), some things never change
Price of bullets remains the same
here we go
VERSE 7:
Hand over fist, slap on the wrist
Ummm, ninety nine, (ninety nine)
That's all I'm asking for, (ninety nine)
How much, (999)
How much do you want to give
Yeah, just a little bit
Nine ninety, (nine ninety nine)
Yeah, they operate
Look at the state of my baby
Will it cost twenty grand? Pitiful
Yeah, that's a nine
Put your money where your mouth is, (ninety nine)
Couph it up, (999)
Oh, nickle and dimes
