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:
The [Bm]girl in the alley k[D]neels with exhaustion
She's g[Em]uarded by the skinny guy who l[G]imps from some in[A]fection
[Bm]Behind a veil of bleached thin hair her [D]eyes tell a story
Like a [Em]photo of Berlin, December [G]194[A]4
She's [Bm]looking for a handout, she's been [A]high for several weeks now
She's t[Em]oo far gone for whoring and the [G]money just gave o[A]ut
And her h[Bm]eart s[D]till b[Em]eats [D]ins[A]ide
And the b[Bm]lood r[D]uns [Em]in h[D]er v[A]eins
A r[D]emnan[A]t of l[Em]ife rem[Bm]ains
Her h[Bm]eart s[D]till b[Em]eats [D]ins[A]ide
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.
