Talk Of The Town (ver 3) by The Pretenders
Artist: The Pretenders
Song: Talk of the town
Tabbed by: DJ
6th July 2014
This is based on the full version of the original single,
which is found on The Pretenders 'Greatest Hits' album.
The 'Pretenders II' album had a shorter edited version.
Chrissie now plays a simplified version on acoustic sessions, but
I've tried to emulate what I can hear on the record, with the chords
taking into account a bit of what Pete Farndon was playing on bass.
(G/F#)= 2xxxxx A7sus2= x02000 G/B = x20033 D4 = xx0233
G = 320033 Am7 = x02010 Cadd9 = x32033 C/G = 332010
C = x32013 B7 = x21202 D = xx0232
I find the (G/F#) to G and the (G/B) to C easier as a hammer-on,
but it is probably better as a slide.

It's such a drag to want something sometime,
C D D4 D
One thing leads to a - nother, I know,
B7 G G/B Am7 C D D4 D
Was a time I wanted you for mine, nobody knew!
B7 G G/B Am7
You arrived like a day, and passed like a cloud,

I made a wish, I said it out loud-------,
D4 D Cadd9 G/B G D
A - loud in a crowd----------,

Every - body heard-----------,
D4 D C
'Twas the talk of the town------!

It's not my place to know what you feel,

I'd like to know, but why should I?

Who were you then, who are you now--------?
C D D4 D
Common labourer by night, ...by day high - brow!
B7 G G/B Am7 C D
Back in my room, I wonder, then I ...sit on the bed,

And look at the sky-------------,
D4 D Cadd9 G/B G D
Up in the sky-----------,
D4 D Cadd9 G/B G D
Clouds re - ar - ranged----------,

Oh, but it's hard to live by the rules,
C D D4 D
I never could, and still never do,
B7 G G/B
The rules, and such, never bothered you,
Am7 C D D4 D
You call the shots, and they fol - low!
B7 G G/B Am7
I watch you still ...from a distance then go...
C D D4 D Cadd9 G/B G D
Back to my room, you never know-----------------,
D4 D Cadd9 G/B G D
I want you-------------,
