NOTE: The song may not be in standard tuning.
   However, i made a chord tab for it that way.
   ALso, I did the INTRO the way I hear it.
   Feel free to improvise with hammer ons
   and pull offs. This however sounds really
   good to me and is a simplified version and
   is easy to follow.

VERSE:

  C
Behind the red door,
   C
In American skin
 C          F   C
There is a murder of roses

    C
In the midnight hiss,
   C
Come cover me there
  C       F    C
For I am electric nothing


CHORUS
Dm
Out on the tide,
 Dm
Strangers all
   C     C
Are drowning by

Dm
Under eclipse,
  Dm
I wait for your kiss
     Em
With the beating
    C  G
Of her all gone

       C
These idiot hearts

VERSE:
      C
And no more evil now,
  C
No horror sound
  C        F   C
No maniac song from tyrant

     C
And the surfer king
   C
Will show me everything
     C           F    C
In the great green flash of the evening


CHORUS
Dm
Out on the tide,
 Dm
Strangers we ride
 C        C
Smoke in our eyes

Dm
Under eclipse,
  Dm
I wait for your kiss
     Em
With the beating
    C  G
Of her all gone

       Dm  Dm
These idiot hearts
