I got a two       dollar       stare
       Midas in my touch and Deliliah in my hair

I got bad intentions on the soles of my shoes

With this red hot fever and these chromium blues

        and  I  will  feel  another  lover's wheel
        drive for miles and not look back
& the  love  is   real   as   the    day  is  long

and the night is black
    as black as night

  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
