[Verse] (same chords)
She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns
He used to do surgery
For girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins
And it wears him out
It wears him out
It wears him out
It wearsAsus4 A
She looks like the real thing
She tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love
But I can't help the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
If I just turn and run
[Chorus]
And it wears me out
it wears me out
It wears me out
It wears me out Amaj7

[Solo]
This is the solo from the third verse. It's pretty quiet on the album but you can make it out OK.
(each dash is a semiquaver (or 16th whatever you call it))

Sorry for the typing mess up in the solo but you can't fit a double figure number into one character!
So to clear it up:| There are 5 8th-note 11s in the fifth measure/bar.
| And the notes in the eighth measure are all 8th-notes
This is one of the greatest songs by the greatest bands ever. And rest assured:
THIS TAB IS 100% ACCURATE (this statement is not legally binding)
Obviously if you're playing the rhythm (Thom's) part to this song you'll just have to
out the picking for your damn self cause I couldn't be hassled with it but the chords are
to the song.
This tab is better than the others on this page.
So happy... tabbing.(?)
