There seem to be no choruses in the traditional sense, and no clear verses, but I guess you know how the song goes...? Play the Dsus2 with the 2nd and 3rd fingers. This makes the change to Esus2 (and on to Csus2/E) much easier. Lift off the B in Cmaj7(no 5th) (gives Am/D xx0555) just before the return to Dsus2... There: you've nailed it! (The rest is practise.) Enjoy! INTRO: Dsus2 Esus2 Csus2/E Cmaj7(no 5th) VERSE: Dsus2 Esus2 Csus2/E Saw myself in a leisure suit: pretty white trash, Cmaj7(no 5th) Dsus2 Floating on the surface of life. Esus2 Csus2/E It always comes to this, that emptiness, Cmaj7(no 5th) Dsus2 No matter how many toys you got. Esus2 Csus2/E It's not enough, not ever enough, Cmaj7(no 5th) D6 Csus2/F# To take away the aching in my heart for human kindness. Cadd9 D6 Dsus2 No one's sleeping in the deafening silence. Esus2 Csus2/E Cmaj7(no 5th) There's no address, no number listed Dsus2 Esus2 For the one that took the shot Csus2/E Cmaj7(no 5th) Dsus2 Ready or not, his righteous and twisted crusade Esus2 Csus2/E Is over now, need someone else Cmaj7(no 5th) D6 Csus2/F# To take away the anguish in our hearts for human kindness. Cadd9 D6 No one's sleeping in the deafening silence. G E And there's time for it for humankind Cmaj7 D6 A I wanna cry so hard, wanna breakdown, it feels so good E Cmaj7 D6 A I wanna ride all night, make you laugh, make you feel good Cmaj7(no 5th) Dsus2 No matter how many toys you got Esus2 Csus2/E It's not enough, not ever enough Cmaj7(no 5th) D6 Csus2/F# To take away the anguish in our hearts for human kindness Cadd9 D6 Is anyone asleep tonight in the deafening silence? Em/D He'll take it away from us G E If we don't make time for humankind Cmaj7 D6 A All right, all right, make you feel good...
