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:
 
    Bm                 D
The girl in the alley kneels with exhaustion
       Em                            G                A
She's guarded by the skinny guy who limps from some infection
Bm                                      D
Behind a veil of bleached thin hair her eyes tell a story
       Em                        G  A
Like a photo of Berlin, December 1944
      Bm                                A
She's looking for a handout, she's been high for several weeks now
       Em                              G                A
She's too far gone for whoring and the money just gave out
 
         Bm    D     Em   D  A
And her heart still beats inside
         Bm    D   Em  D   A
And the blood runs in her veins
   D    A     Em     Bm
A remnant of life remains
     Bm    D     Em   D  A
Her heart still beats inside
 
 
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.
