Standard tuning
Capo 5 (or w/o capo played in D, I just like the chords better in A)

Love this song, but I couldnt find it charted out anywhere, so heres my best shot at it. Enjoy!

I wrote out the chords that might be different from usual...the rest are
just normal. This is how I play it, and it works pretty well with the track.
    C#5   D5   E5
E | ---0------0------0--- | 
B | ---5------3------3--- | 
G | ---6------2------1--- | 
D | ---6------0------2--- | 
A | ---4------0------2--- | 
E | ---4------2------0--- | 

Verse 1:
A5                               C#5
Ooh, ooh, little red, with your heart in Stalingrad
       D5                                 E5
Oh, it kills me how they hate you, but they just dont understand
A5                         C#5
Oh, oh-oh, red, when they put me on the stand
       D5                       E5                            A5
