so i've been listening to phoenix for a while, but i was totally blown away by Wolfgang
Phoenix.. Lisztomania is definitely one of the top tracks, and when i first heard the
acoustic version on youtube my mind was blown. i checked up for the tab but saw that the
was a bit different, so i thought i'd try to do the best i could and help you guys
there.

Lyrics:
So sentimental
Not sentimental, no!
Romantic, not discussing it
Darling I'm down and lonely
When we're the fortunate only
I've been looking for something else
Duel it, duel it, duel it, juggle it, duel it, duel it
Go slowly, discouraged,
Distant from other interests
On your favorite we can end it
This love's for gentlemen only
That's with the fortunate only
No I gotta be someone else
These days it comes it comes it comes it comes it comes and goes
Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow
Like a ride, like a riot, Oh!
Not easily offended
Know how to let it go
From a mess to the masses
Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow
Like a ride, like a riot, Oh!
Not easily offended
Know how to let it go
From a mess to the masses
Follow, misguide, stand still
Discuss, discourage
On this precious we can end it
This love's for gentlemen only
Wealthiest gentlemen only
And now that you're lonely
Duel it, duel it, duel it, juggle it, duel it, duel it
Let's go slowly, discouraged,
We'll burn the pictures instead
When it's all over we can barely discuss
For one minute only
Not with the fortunate only
Thought it could have been something else
These days it comes it comes it comes it comes it comes and goes
Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow
Like a ride, like a riot, Oh!
Not easily offended
Know how to let it go
From a mess to the masses
