Em
Gather up ye pots and cans,
Em
Gonna have to share the amps
D
And move along from band to band,
A
A race against the sinking sand.
Em
If the pigs come cruising by,
Em
We'll turn off all the lights
D
And keep the stick from hittin' skin
A
Until they're 'round the bend.
Em
This is where the Salt are sharing spit and sweat and steam.
D A
The kids may all get out alive, but none of them go home the same.

Another space is closed, you got no place left to go.

So go save someone else and don't you tell me 'bout no fire code.

There's a Laundromat on Main,

By night another place.

"Someone upstairs is cool,
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/mischief_brew/on_the_sly_crd.html ]
Em
Just leave no trace of you."
D
It's like a new inebriation
A
Against Prohibition.
Em
Only catch is you can't post the time or place.
D A
You got whisper codes on down the lane, it works better anyway.
Em
See, we tried to be legit, we got bound in red tape,
D A
So had to do it on the sly. This is your noise complaint.
