I got a chrome plated heart
wings on these fingers trying to tear it apart

[pattern 1, but at 5th fret]

e ----------------------------------------------------
B ----------------------------------------------------
G (6)-----------------------------------6-h-7-p-6-----
D ---7---7--5--------5h7-----7---7--5------------7p5--
A ---7--------5-h-7----.-----7------------------------
E ---5-----------------------5---------------------.-- 

I got angels crying from up above

[pattern 1 again, back down at E]
And they got ru[E]st in their eyes They got rust on their love

[C#m] [A]

e -------------------------------------------------------------
B -------------5--------5--------------------5---------5-------
G --------6--------6---------6--------------------6---------6--
D ------6------------6------------------7-----------7----------
A -4---------------------------------7-------------------------
E --------------------------------5---------------------------- 

But I have learned to leave no stone unturned

[pattern2]
[C#m] keep the wall against my b[A]ack
& the love is real as the day is long

[Pattern1]^
and the [E]night is black
as black as night

[pattern 1, at E/nut]
I got a t[E]wo dollar stare
Midas in my touch and Deliliah in my hair

[pattern 1 at A (5th fret)]
I got [A]bad intentions on the soles of my shoes

[pattern1, at E(nut)]
With this [E]red hot fever and these chromium blues

[pattern2]
[C#m] and I will feel another l[A]over's wheel
drive for miles and not look back
& the love is real as the day is long

[pattern1]
and the [E]night is black
as black as night

chrome plated heart. . .

[repeat last riff to fade]

don't play the G string yet, but keep your hand in an Emajor shape
throughout the riff. Also its best to use your 2nd,3rd & 4th fingers for
the E, coz you'll need your index finger for a barre in a minute.

$- is pop/slap bass- pick this by hooking the string away from the
scratchplate with your thumb(nail).

h is a hammer on
p is a pull off
. is cut the note short
