Email: b777vale@yahoo.com Tuning: standard As far as I can figure out, this song is just some picking at the beginning, and then some chords. Intro: e|------5---------5--------| B|----3-------3-----3------| G|--4-------0--------------| D|-------------------------| A|-------------------------| E|-------------------------|(repeat a few times) the second time the intro is played, the second guitar does something like this: e|--------------------------------| B|--------------------------------| G|------4--4b5-5-5--5-5--5-4------| D|--------------------------------| A|--2---2--2b3-3-3--3-3--3-2------| E|--------------------------------| Here are the lyrics/chords: Bm D The girl in the alley kneels with exhaustion Em G A She's guarded by the skinny guy who limps from some infection Bm D Behind a veil of bleached thin hair her eyes tell a story Em G A Like a photo of Berlin, December 1944 Bm A She's looking for a handout, she's been high for several weeks now Em G A She's too far gone for whoring and the money just gave out Bm D Em D A And her heart still beats inside Bm D Em D A And the blood runs in her veins D A Em Bm A remnant of life remains Bm D Em D A Her heart still beats inside The man finally comes to the door, I've seen him several times He always looks pissed off and his sunglasses stay on I think he got his biceps and tattoos while in prison And it doesnt seem to bother him when he says "go to hell" And his heart still beats inside The blood runs in his veins A remnant of life remains His heart still beats inside The thought it comes to my mind, to somehow intervene But it could bring me trouble, and what can I do anyway? It's hard to be affected when it happens so often To see a life unraveling, through drawn venetian blinds I'm sickened by compassion, I'm stifled by my limitations Anesthetic apathy, come take the pain away And my heart still beats inside The blood runs in my veins A remnant of life remains And my heart still beats inside Oh God, we need you here We're sinking fast and we dont care The evidence is all around me, on both sides of my door Our hearts beat That’s all, hope it’s alright, enjoy. | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ vibrato | + harmonic | x Mute note ===============================================================================
