This is a great song, really simple but very cool. it is worth
noting though that you could play this song using the fills i have
shown below or you can use the chords i've laid out here to play it,
either way works, and both are fine, so whichever you prefer.

..okay here it is

Verse 1
A6sus4                C#              B
A long stone and my day’s all serpentine
A6sus4                     C#                  B
The tired tarnish in my chest rests sense of SARS
A6sus4                        C#                     B
And one dull dawn where they hum that splits its length
A6sus4                      C#                B
Does my name sting your tongue? Now does it beg?

Refrain
A6sus4                C#
oooo uh oooooh ooooo oohuhooo
A6sus4                C#
oooo uh oooooh ooooo oohuhooo..(play the refrain 4 times here)

repeat the intro fill 8 times

Verse 2..(chords are the same as verse 1)

Your thin frame has set my eyes to fray
On our dim stretch of this street, how it aches
For every grey and sad and taut to coil
And our frail eyes and there watch to finally talk

Repeat the refrain again

repeat the intro fill 8 times again

then play this second fill..twice

e-----1-0------1-0-1-0------|
B----------------------3-1--|
G-0-2------0-2--------------|
D---------------------------|
A---------------------------| ...X2
E---------------------------|

Verse 3..(same as verse 1 & 2)

One brash phrase cut crush these fragile days
My thoughts swirl in some shrill sad cannonade
And one such spur that caused my throat to creak
The one dull dawn that I’ve since sensed to repeat

Repeat the refrain again

repeat the intro fill 8 times again

then play this second fill..twice

e-----1-0------1-0-1-0------|
B----------------------3-1--|
G-0-2------0-2--------------|
D---------------------------|
A---------------------------| ...X2 to finish
E---------------------------|
