I haven't seen any decient Sam Roberts Band tabs online yet, so I thought
I'd give it a shot.  The Sam Roberts Band has up to 3 seperate guitar
parts in any given song.  This tab details the main rhythm guitar part.

Note: Standard tuning


PART 1:

        Amaj    Amaj   Dmaj
e |-----0-------0------2------
b |-----0h2-----0h2----3------
g |-----0h2-----0h2----2------
d |-----0h2-----0h2----0------
a |-----0-------0-----(0)-----
E |-----x-------x------x------


PART 2:

        Emaj    Amaj
e |-----0-------0-------------
b |-----0-------2-------------
g |-----1-------2-------------
d |-----2-------2-------------
a |-----2-------0-------------
E |-----0-------x-------------


PART 3:

        Amaj    Emin       Dmaj
e |-----0-------0------|---2---
b |-----2-------0------|---3---
g |-----2-------0------|---2---
d |-----2-------2------|---0---
a |-----0-------2------|--(0)--
E |-----x-------0------|---x---

Note: There is a brief key change here. In this section
you play an Emin NOT an Emaj as performed in Part 2.

Note: Only play Dmaj at end of section.


PART 4:

        		 Amaj
e |----------------------0----
b |----------------------2----
g |----------------------2----
d |---------------2-4-5--2----
a |---------2-3-5--------0----
E |-----3-5--------------x----

Note: The riff is a major scale progression from G to G.


LYRICS


(1)
Oh the Milky Way has gone a little sour
The leaves dried and the flower fell away
I’ve been sitting, I’ve been waiting for a sign
Inhuman beings taking up all of my time 

(1)
Want to leave but I’ve got to stay 
And I’m wondering more everyday 
Montreal to Hong Kong 
Where have all the good people gone? 

Traffic jam but I’m on the shoulder
Took ten cops to pull me over 
Bangkok to Babylon
Where have all the good people gone? 

(1)
I haven’t met a friend in a long long while
They don’t check my head but they check my style 
The modern world is a cold cold world
And all I meet are cold cold girls 

(2)
Want to leave but I’ve got to stay 
And I’m wondering more everyday 
Montreal to Hong Kong 
Where have all the good people gone? 

Traffic jam but I’m on the shoulder
Took ten cops to pull me over 
Bangkok to Babylon
Where have all the good people gone?

(3)
And it’s always the same
We all just turn away 
We are stealing from ourselves 
We are feeding off ourselves

But we were born in a flame
We need a cool breeze and a summer rain 
We are stealing from ourselves 
We are feeding off ourselves

(1)
Come on, Come on

Oh the Milky Way has gone a little sour
The leaves dried and the flower fell away 

(2)
Want to leave but I’ve got to stay
And I’m wondering more everyday 
Montreal to Hong Kong 
Where have all the good people gone? 

Traffic jam but I’m on the shoulder 
Took ten cops to pull me over 
Bangkok to Babylon
Where have all the good people gone? 
Time’s up and we’re running long 
Where have all the good people gone?

(4)

Whoa oh
Oh whoa...
