3. I don't know how to play A/G and E/D on the guitar. That's why I suggest
G or Gmaj7 instead of A/G and D or Dmaj7 istead of E/D. It fits also.

Intro: (played on organ)

  Dm6
b[--------0----0-]
g[-----2-----2---]

Verse 1:

A    Gmaj7          D
Devastation at last finally we meet
A     Gmaj7                  D
After all of these years out here on the street
A       Gmaj7             D
I had a feeling you would make yourself known
A          Gmaj7                  D
You came along just to claim your place on the throne
                B
And I have been overthrown
      Dmaj7
Overthrown

Chorus:

    A           A/G          F#m
And I thought if I towed the right lines
    F#dim         A    A/G   F#m          B7  D
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine

Verse 2:

A    Gmaj7               D
Devastation my door was left open wide
A              Gmaj7                      D
You brought me into your heart then you swallowed my pride
A       Gmaj7             D
I had a feeling you were hiding your thoughts
A        Gmaj7            D
I made a note to myself I nearly forgot
          B
Now I am overwrought
        Dmaj7
I'm overwrought

Chorus:

    A           A/G          F#m
And I thought if I towed the right lines
    F#dim         A    A/G   F#m          B7  D
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine

Chorus:

    A           A/G          F#m
And I thought if I towed the right lines
    F#dim         A    A/G   F#m          B7  F#dim
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine

Middle part:

E               Am6
  One day this ground will break
    E           A                F#m    B
And open up for me I hope it will     I hope it will (the last word start the Solo)

Solo:

    E  Dmaj7           A
e[-----7---------------------------]
b[--9-----9--7--7--9---7--5-----5--] x2
g[---------------------------6-----]

Verse 3:

E   Dmaj7            A
Salutations at last down on my knees
E           Dmaj7            A
I heard the bugle this morn blast reveille
E           Dmaj7                   A
Woke from a dream where I was in a terrible realm
E      Dmaj7                    A
All my sails were ablaze I was chained to the helm
              F#
And now I am overwhelmed
         Amaj7
I'm overwhelmed

Chorus:

    E            E/D         C#m
And I thought if I towed the right lines
    C#dim         E    E/D   C#m          B7  D
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine

Chorus:

    A           A/G          F#m
And I thought if I towed the right lines
    F#dim         A    A/G   F#m          B7  D
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine

Chorus:

    A           A/G          F#m
And I thought if I towed the right lines  (devastation at last)
    F#dim         A    A/G   F#m          B7  D
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine

Chorus:

    A           A/G          F#m
And I thought if I towed the right lines  (devastation at last)
    F#dim         A    A/G   F#m          B7  D
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine
