I got a chrome plated heart
wings on these fingers trying to tear it apart
pattern 1, but at 5th fret
G (6)-----------------------------------6-h-7-p-6-----
D ---7---7--5--------5h7-----7---7--5------------7p5--
A ---7--------5-h-7----.-----7------------------------
I got angels crying from up above
pattern 1 again, back down at
And they got rust in their eyes They got rust on their love
But I have learned to leave no stone unturned
pattern2
keep the wall against my back
& the love is real as the day is long
Pattern1
^�
and the night is black
as black as night
pattern 1, at /nut
I got a two dollar stare
Midas in my touch and Deliliah in my hair
pattern 1 at (5th fret)
I got bad intentions on the soles of my shoes
pattern1, at (nut)
With this red hot fever and these chromium blues
pattern2
and I will feel another lover's wheel
drive for miles and not look back
& the love is real as the day is long
pattern1
and the night is black
as black as night
:
And I'll dance in time and the time is rough
And I'll pay the price & I'll pray that it's enough
And just outside the door where it always rains
C C+9 C D(type2) D
I'll take the time to polish these scratches and these stains

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
