This song is from the shoegaze era
if you are listening to the 8 minute version there is a lengthy intro with a hammond organ or something similar and is accompanied by drums and the bass
Verse Chords
B5 - power Chord e B G D A E
x x 4 4 2 x
E - e B G D A E
x x 7 9 9 x
D - two ways of doing this one 1 e B G D A E
I prefer the second, it sounds better 2 3 2 0 0 x
but at about 4:30 there is an acoustic 2 e B G D A E
break in the song and the first x x 7 7 5 x
version of the D chord I listed
is more appropriate.
Intro 0:00 - 0:41
the guitar kicks in at 0:42
this is kind of difficult, there is some feedback and an array of effect pedals at work

Verse
This sounds the best if you just do the barred shapes of the chords going down the neck. You only want to play
the top three strings of the chord though. For example if you are playing the B and the C# it would look like
this
e B G D A E - B e B G D A E - C#
4 4 2 6 6 4
B C#
Wheels turning around
D E
Into alien grounds
B C#
Pass through different times
D E
Leave them all Behind (4)

We've got so far to go

Until we get there

B E

after the second time this lick comes in.
