This song is actually played in Eb on the record. This transcription in E won't go along much with the album unless you tune down.

/F#m G#m/ x 3 F#m7

same as before

They shifted the statues for harboring ghosts Reddened their necks, collared their clothes Then we danced the dance till the menace got out She gathered the corners and called it her gown

P^Elease ^G#mfind my harb^A/Asus2orcoat, ^Ecan't^G#m go outside^A/Asus2 without it ^E ^G#mFind my harb^A/Asus2orcoat, ^Ecan't^G#m go outside^A/Asus2 without it

same as other verses

They crowded up to Lenin with their noses worn off A handshake is worthy if it's all that you've got Metal shoes on wood push through our back There's a splinter in your eye and it reads "REACT", R-E-A-C-T

break Em with 12th fret harmonics played fast and furiously
They shifted the statues for harboring ghosts Reddened their necks, collared their clothes Then we danced the dance till the menace got out She gathered the corners and called it her gown

She said...
