Basic song:
1st part 2nd part 3rd part
F#, E, B F#, E, B, B F#, C#, E, B
alternate
F#, C#, B, F#
in full :
F#We are the 8 0 E1
BWe are the central F#shaft - And we are
Ehere to let you Btake advantage
F#Of our lack of Ecraft
BCertain streets have F#certain corners
ESooner or later, Bwe'll turn yours
F#We are the 8 0 E1
BWe are the central shaF#ft - And thus through-
-Eout two years we've Bcrossed the ocean
F#in our little Ecraft (Row! Row! Row!)
BNow we're on the F#telephone
EMaking final arraBngements (Ding! Ding!)
F#We are the 8 0 E1
BWe are the central shaF#ft
E B B
F#Looking for a certain Eratio
BSomeone must have left it Bunderneath the carpet
F#Looking up and down the Eradio
BOh-oh, nothing there Bthis time
F#Looking for a certain Eratio
BSomeone said they saw it Bparking in a car-lot
F#Looking up and down the Eradio
BOh-oh, nothing there Bthis time
F#Going back down to the rEadio
BOh, oh - oh, oh - oh, oh - Bhere we go!

=== B, B bent to C/C#, A, B -- like: ===
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
E |-----------------------|-----------------------|
B |-----------------------|-----------------------|
G |-----------------------|-----------------------|
D |--9-9b10------7-----9--|--9-9b10------7-----9--|
A |-----------------------|-----------------------|
E |-----------------------|-----------------------|
Either keep that up for the last part, or switch to chords.
I like F#, C#, E, B when alone, or F#, C#, B, F# if there is A bass.

F#We are the table, the captain's table
C#Let's get it understood, let's get it understood
EWe are the losers, we are the bruisers
BLet's get it understood, let's get it understood
F#We are the diners, the final diners
C#Let's get it understood, let's get it understood
EMost of us tinkers, some of us tailors,
BAnd we've got candlesticks, and lots of cocktail sticks
F#We saw the lovers, the modern lovers
C#And they looked very good, they looked as if they could
EWe are the neighbours, the nosy neighbours
BWe think just like we would, we think just like we should.
