Standard tuning for this song, for both chords and tab. This is a pretty simple song
to just bash away on, and a lot of fun. (Especially if you have a distortion pedal!)
 
 
[Verse]
C        G                 F   A7  F   A7
Eternal Life is now on my trail
       C                      G                     F    A7  F   A7
Got my red glitter coffin, man, just need one last nail
       C                        G                       F    A7 F   A7
While all these ugly gentlemen play out their foolish games
           C             G                      F    A7 F   A7
There's a flaming red horizon that screams our names
 
 
[Chorus]
G
And as your fantasies are broken in two
         Em
Did you really think this bloody road would
 
Pave the way for you?
            D
You better turn around
                    A                     Em
and blow your kiss hello to life eternal, angel
 
 
[Verse]
C       G                        F    A7 F   A7
Racist everyman, what have you done?
C                  G                      F   A7 F   A7
Man, you've made a killer of your unborn son...
C                   G                      F  A7 F  A7
Crown my fear your king at the point of a gun
C              G                  F  A7 F   A7
All I want to do is love everyone...
 
 
[Chorus]
G
And as your fantasies are broken in two
          Em
Did you really think this bloody road would
 
Pave the way for you?
            D
You better turn around
                    A7                    A7 C F# F B A
and blow your kiss hello to life eternal....
 
 
[Bridge]
A7          C        F#           F
There's no time for hatred, only questions
         B              A                  G
What is love, where is happiness, what is life,
          F
where is peace?
E
When will I find the strength to bring me release?
 
 
[Outro]
C                         G                              F   A7 F   A7
And tell me where is the love in what your prophet has said?
         C                        G                       F   A7 F  A7
Man, It sounds to me just like a prison for the walking dead
     C                      G                      F   A7 F   A7
And I've got a message for you and your twisted hell
            C                                 G
You better turn around and blow your kiss goodbye
           F     A7          G - Em - D - A - G - Em - D - A - Em
to life eternal angel...

If you're going to steal a tab, at least give credit to the author. You didn't even change his personal lines at the top. Just copied and pasted. credit and thanks for this tab should go to m.harris AT iaesr.unimelb.edu.au
