[Verse 1]
 
Yeah, lover I'm off the streets
Gonna go where the bright lights
And the big city meet
With a red guitar, on fire
Desire
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
She's the candle
Burning in my room
I'm like the needle
Needle and spoon
Over the counter
With a shotgun
Pretty soon, everybody got one
And the fever when I'm beside her
Desire, Desire
 
(Burning, Burning)
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
She's the dollars
She's my protection
She's the promise
In the year of election
Sister, I can't let you go
I'm like a preacher
Stealing hearts at a traveling show
For the love or money, money...?

These Chords work OK - it's just the same riff/pattern repeated throughout the entire song* ! THEREFORE IT IS NOT IMCOMPLETE (*except for the bridge, which is also listed). However, you could try and play an Esus4 instead of the 2nd A at the end of the riff (it's easier, quicker to change, and IMHO sounds more like it) - just play a regular open E, and use your pinky finger on the 2nd fret of the G string (off, on, off) D, A, E, Esus4, E P.S. And it's not listed as a Tab - it's "chords" (learn the difference!) PPS. + try tuning down a 1/2 step to play in-tune with the recording
