For the (Eb Ebsus4 Eb) sections, the notes are Bb, Ab, G but for those who prefer
chords, I thought it would be easier to write them up as such.

Eb ( Eb Ebsus4
Eb )
Nothing ruins comedy like arenas
Eb ( Eb Ebsus4

That is a well established fact
Eb
But your enjoyment is not as important
( Eb Ebsus4 Eb)
