TRANQUILIZE             THE KILLERS

( Note: actual song is played with all strings tuned town one semitone - Eb-Ab-C#-F#-Bb-Eb

Dm
Time it tells livin' in my hometown
Wedding bells they begin easy
Live it down, baby dont talk that much
Baby knows that baby don't tease me
F
In the park we could go walking
Bb
Down in the dark we could go sailing
Dm
On the sea-ea


Dm
Always here, always on time close call. 
Was it love or was it just easy
Money talks when people need shoes and socks
Steady boys I think that she needs me
F
I was just sippin on something sweet
Bb
I don't need political process

Prechorus:
D5                              Asus4
I got this feeling that they're gonna break down the door
Dm/F                             Gm*
I got this feeling that they're gonna come back for more
D5                        Asus4
See I was thinking that I lost my mind
Dm/F                        Gm*
But it's been getting to me all this time
     A5
And don't stop dragging me down

Chorus 1:

F          C        Dm                Bb
Silently reflection turns my world to stone
F          C         Dm              A
Patiently correction leaves us all alone
     Bb             C               Dm
And sometimes I'm a travelin' but tonight
Dm           C     Bb   C
This engines failing


(play notes on Bass A string (5th) over next line)



And I still hear the children playing


Dm
Kick the can, kick the can skip and blackjack, 
Steal a car and ring around rosie
Rock and roll, candyland, boogieman, 
Run away and give me your sneakers

Dm
Acid rain when Abel looked up at Cain
We began weeping and a-wailin'
Hurry high from pestilence pills and pride
It's a shame we could have gone sailing
F                                   Bb
But Heaven knows, Heaven knows everything...tranquilize

Prechorus:
D5                              Asus4
I got this feeling that they're gonna break down the door
Dm/F                             Gm*
I got this feeling that they're gonna come back for more
D5                        Asus4
See I was thinkin' that I lost my mind
Dm/F                        Gm*
But it's been getting to me all this time
     A5
And don't stop dragging me down


Chorus:
F          C         Dm               Bb
Silently reflection turns my world to stone
F          C         Dm             A
Patiently correction leaves us all alone
     Bb                C
And sometimes I'm  a travelin' but tonight
Dm           C   Bb  C
This engines failing

(play notes on Bass E and A strings (6th and 5th) over next line)



I still hear the children playing, dead beat dancers come to us and stay

F                             Dm
Cause I don't care where you been
      C                   Am
And I don't care what you seen
          Dm               Gm
We're the ones who still believe
          C             F
And we're looking for a page
C                        Dm
In that lifeless book of hope
       C                   Am
Where dream might help you cope
          Dm             Gm
Where the bushes and the bombs
   C           F
Uh-huh tranquilize
