[Intro]
G
 
[Verse 1]
G                      C/G         G
Radio waves are coming miles and miles
C/G                 G
Bringing only empty boats
                          C/G        G
Whatever feeling they had when they sailed
C/G                             G
Somehow slipped out between the notes
 
[Chorus]
Em                    C/G     G
Out on the desert and feeling lost
Em                      C/G    G
The bonnet wears a wire albatross
Em                      C/G             G
Monster ballads and the stations of the cross
D                     C/G
Sighing just a little bit
D                     C/G
Sighing just a little bit
 
[Verse 2]
G                             C/G  G
And I was thinking 'bout what Katy done
C/G                      G
Thinking 'bout what Katy did
                             C/G      G
The fairest daughter of the Pharoah's son
C/G                             G
Dressed in gold 'neath pyramids
 
[Chorus]
Em                    C/G     G
Out on the desert and feeling lost
Em                      C/G    G
The bonnet wears a wire albatross
Em                      C/G             G
Monster ballads and the stations of the cross
D                     C/G
Sighing just a little bit
D                     C/G
Sighing just a little bit
 
[Bridge]
C/G
Ones and zeroes bleeding mesa noise
G                                D
And when you're empty there's so much space for them
C/G
You turn it off but then a still, small voice
G                          D
Comes in blazing from some vast horizon
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
G                           C/G   G
And I was thinking 'bout my river days
C/G                             G
And I was thinking 'bout me and Jim
                   C/G   G
Passing Cairo on a getaway
C/G                         G
With every steamboat like a hymn
 
[Chorus]
Em                    C/G     G
Out on the desert and feeling lost
Em                      C/G    G
The bonnet wears a wire albatross
Em                      C/G             G
Monster ballads and the stations of the cross
D                     C/G
Sighing just a little bit

Sighing just a little bit

The last line, "Sighing just a little bit", should switch to "Smiling just a little bit", I think. Excellent tab!
