Dead Mans Hill chords

Dead Mans Hill

• Dsus9

{In the parts that say "Dsus9 - D7sus9  D6 - D5," play the riff that 
 I've tabbed out at the end.  I.e., don't actually play a Dsus9 chord.} 
{The A5 and D5 are kind of weird; at times, they can sound like Am and D, 
 but do try to lay off the third.}

We were down at Dead Man's Hill, smoking vines like cigarettes 
A5                    G/B        Csus9                 D5 
Looking through the trashy mags, trying to feel what's coming next 
A5               G/B         Csus9                D5 
You told me of crashing cars, older brothers, and late night bars 
A5               G/B        Csus9             Csus9           D     D 
I told you what I feel most, and you kept it like a ghost forever 
  
G                 D      D                   G 
  Don't you write it down, remember this in your head 
{G}         D         D                    G 
  Don't take a picture, remember this in your heart 
{G}          D        D                  G                   
  Don't leave a message, talk to me face to face 
{G}                  
(Talk to me face to face) Talk to me face to face 
  
Dsus9 - D7sus9  D6 - D5    Dsus9 - D7sus9   D6 - D5 
{instrumental} 
 
Lying on the bright blue jumping mat, dinner bell is ringing 
Barking dogs and model planes, and the sound of passing trains 
We watch for bonfires in the sky, on the beach in July 
Spin the bottle, steal the kiss, postcards to the one I miss forever 
    D5            D5     D5 
The one I miss forever 
  
Don't you write it down, remember this in your head 
Don't take a picture, remember this in your heart 
I'll leave a message when everything comes apart 
(Talk to me face to face) Talk to me face to face 
(Everything comes apart) Ahhhhhh, I'll leave a message 
G                     Dsus9 - D7sus9   D6 - D5 
    When everything comes apart 
  
Dsus9 - D7sus9  D6 - D5    Dsus9 - D7sus9   D6 - D5

A5 G/B Csus9 D5   A5 G/B Csus9 D5   A5 G/B Csus9 D5   A5 G/B Csus9 D5 
{instrumental} 
  
I remember cats on fire, gasoline, a burning spiral 
Standing underneath the night, fighting back with all my might 
Empty cans and charred remains, find them in the heat of day 
On the top of Dead Man's Hill, this is what I know of shame forever
