Tuning: Standard, Capo on 1st fret

Main Riff: This plays through the intro and first verse. All of this is relative to the capo.

e|-----0---0-----------------------0---0-------------------------------------|
B|-1h3---3---3-1---1---1---1---1h3---3---3------------------------------------|
G|---------------2---2---2---2-----------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

I can see the words as they come out your mouth
Black balloons form into a poison cloud


Chorus Chords: (listen to song for timing)

  Fm7         G          Dm
e|-0---------------------1-----------------------------------------------------|
B|-3---------------------3-----------------------------------------------------|
G|-2----------0----------2-----------------------------------------------------|
D|-1----------0----------0-----------------------------------------------------|
A|-0----------2----------0-----------------------------------------------------|
E|-0----------3----------------------------------------------------------------|

(I'm not entirely certain about the Dm. It may just be x00320. Try
whatever sounds right to you. There are also
notes being played on the latter part of the chorus. Just use arpeggios that
match the chords being played
and you should be fine)

Hold me down and bring me back up again
Until I can't, I can't tell the difference

Go back to the Main Riff:

Circling vultures always overhead
Force your hand
Every day is life or death

Go back to the Chorus Chords:


Hold me down and bring me back up again
Until I can't, I can't tell the difference

Solo:

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-10/7-7-5----5h7-7-5-5-7-----10/7-7-5----5h7-7-5-5-------------------------|
E|-----------5--------------------------5------------5-----------------------|

(Don't be afraid to mess with these notes a bit, he does a lot of variations on it)

Bridge Chords:

e|-0-0-0-00---0-0-0-00------------------------------|
B|-1-1-1-11---3-3-3-33------------------------------|
G|-2-2-2-22---2-2-2-22------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------|

(The buildup just repeats the chorus chords, as well as the solo)

Now you've changed your name
Do they still ask you twice?

I look on
Red lights flashing for applause
Play your part
Swear you're who you say you are

Back to the Chorus:


You hold me down and bring me back up again
Until I can't, I can't tell the difference
