Dead Man Ray - Landslide
This is an acoustic adaptation of this tune, probably not exactly what they play on the CD, but it works fine.

And here is how it goes:
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
I always knew you were a landslide
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
Like plains are roofs until they fly
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
What you've been calling minor cracks dear, I fear
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
Are bound to shift to gaps of greed
E MajorE (let it ring 4 beat) D5,A5,E5,F#5,D5
Leave
A5A5 E5E5 F#5, D5,A5,E5,F#5,D5
before they come and call you
A5A5 E5E5 F#5, D5,A5,E5,F#5,D5,A5
Before you¹re stuck with me
E5E5 F#5F#5
Never ask for any meaning
D5D5 A5A5
Never ask me to be dealing
E5E5 F#5F#5
With the cure for what I'm healing
D5D5 A5A5
Wait in vain for prefab feelings
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
Now comes the time to face the plot dear
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
And to embrace this mental plague
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
I¹m your neurotic countercrashtest may I
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
Steal the engine from your burning wreck ?
E MajorE (let it ring 4 beat) D5,A5,E5,F#5,D5
Fear
A5A5 E5E5 F#5, D5,A5,E5,F#5,D5
won't drive you to my outskirts
A5A5 E5E5 F#5, D5,A5,E5,F#5,D5,A5
So get off while you can
E5E5 F#5F#5
Jump into the same old river
D5D5 A5A5
Knights are white and horses shiver
E5E5 F#5F#5
Hate the series love the trailer
D5D5 A5A5
Like the song but I hate the lyrics
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
So now I¹ve written you my last will
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
It sounds exactly like the first
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
I might escort you to the exit face it
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m
Dear I¹m just a hunter with no gear
E MajorE (let it ring 4 beat) D5,A5,E5,F#5,D5
Hey
A5A5 E5E5 F#5, D5,A5,E5,F#5,D5
this silence is amusing
A5A5 E5E5 F#5, D5,A5,E5,F#5,D5,A5
And it would be a shame to sing
E5E5 F#5F#5
About diamonds falling off my ceiling
D5D5 A5A5
Moralisers keep patrolling
E5E5 F#5F#5
all my exes keep on calling
D5D5 A5A5
greet the gap before you're falling
D5D5 A5A5 E5,F#5
Never say you love me (you don't)
D5D5 A5A5
Never say you do (you don't)
Never say you trust me (you don't)
Don¹t believe my truth (landslide)
Fruits are best forbidden (to rot)
Roots are there to hide (deep down)
Memory¹s a riddance (recall)
Overpaint the slides (landslide)
Love me like a landslide (you don't)
Lead me to my mud (you won't)
Slide into the open (landslide)
Gliding from my hand (landslide)
