in full :

F# E
We are the 8 0 1

B F#
We are the central shaft - And we are

E B
here to let you take advantage

F# E
Of our lack of craft

B F#
Certain streets have certain corners

E B
Sooner or later, we'll turn yours

F# E
We are the 8 0 1

B F#
We are the central shaft - And thus through-

E B
-out two years we've crossed the ocean

F# E
in our little craft (Row! Row! Row!)

B F#
Now we're on the telephone

E B
Making final arrangements (Ding! Ding!)

F# E
We are the 8 0 1

B F#
We are the central shaft

E B B

F# E
Looking for a certain ratio

B B
Someone must have left it underneath the carpet

F# E
Looking up and down the radio

B B
Oh-oh, nothing there this time

F# E
Looking for a certain ratio

B B
Someone said they saw it parking in a car-lot

F# E
Looking up and down the radio

B B
Oh-oh, nothing there this time

F# E
Going back down to the radio

B B
Oh, oh - oh, oh - oh, oh - here we go!

=== B, B bent to C/C#, A, B -- like: ===

1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
E |-----------------------|-----------------------|
B |-----------------------|-----------------------|
G |-----------------------|-----------------------|
D |--9-9b10------7-----9--|--9-9b10------7-----9--|
A |-----------------------|-----------------------|

Either keep that up for the last part, or switch to chords.
I like F# , C# , E , B when alone, or F# , C# , B , F# if there is A bass.

F#
We are the table, the captain's table

C#
Let's get it understood, let's get it understood

E
We are the losers, we are the bruisers

B
Let's get it understood, let's get it understood

F#
We are the diners, the final diners

C#
Let's get it understood, let's get it understood

E
Most of us tinkers, some of us tailors,

B
And we've got candlesticks, and lots of cocktail sticks

F#
We saw the lovers, the modern lovers

C#
And they looked very good, they looked as if they could

E
We are the neighbours, the nosy neighbours

B
We think just like we would, we think just like we should.
