Here is the guitar part for the song. The last parts (part 4 and 5) are played ONCE at
end of the song. This is the full song for guitar, which means no piano intro or sax solo
The chords are all right, you can do what the guitarist does and add a note to some 
randomly to spice it up. Enjoy!

Order of Song:
Piano Intro

Seen the lights go out on broadway
I saw the Empire State laid low
And life went on beyond the Palisades
They all bought Cadillacs
And left there long ago
They held a concert out in Brooklyn
To watch the island bridges blow

Part 1
They turned our power down
And drove us underground
But we went right on with the show

Part 2 (2x)
Oooh�

Part 3
I've seen the lights go out on Broadway
I saw the ruins at my feet
You know we almost didn't notice it
We'd seen it all time on Forty-second Street
They burned the chuches up in Harlem
Like in the Spanish civil war

Part 1
The flames were everywhere
But no one really cared
It always burned up there before

Part 2 (2x)
Oooh�

Part 3
I've seen the lights go out on Broadway
I watched the mighty skyline fall
The boats were waiting at the battery
The union went on strike
They never sailed at all
They sent a carrier out from Norfolk
And picked the Yankees up for free

Part 1
They said that Queens could stay
And blew the Bronx away
And sank Manhattan out at sea

Part 2 (2x)

Part 4
You know those lights were bright on Broadway
That was so many years ago

Before we all lived here in Florida
Before the Mafia took over Mexico
There are not many who remember
They say a handful still survive

Part 5
To tell the world about
The way the lights went out
And keep the memory alive
