4/4 time.  Heavy distortion.  Listen to the song for reference to rhythms and guitar 2.

F#5 (eighth notes with palm muting for 4 measures)

F#5
i'm never coming back, i'm never giving in
A5				F#5
i'll never be the shine in your spit
F#5
i disconnect the act, i disconnect the dots
A5			F#5 (gradually open from palm muting to ringing chord)
i disconnect the me in me

F#5	E5	A5 (let chords ring, 3 measures)
F#5	E5 (4?th measure, let E chord ring for rest of measure)

F#5	        E5      A5
and you're mis -tak    -en,
it's you that's fak    -ing
living 	        breath -ing
and dying       too
this mes        -sage is for
anyone who     dares  to
hear                    A
F#5	E5 (let E chord ring for rest of measure)
fool

F#5 (with palm muting for 2 measures)

F#5
you can't bring me back, you can't bring me back
A5			     F#5 (open from palm muting to ringing chord)
cause i gave it all back to you

F#5	     E5	A5
thru sacred alleys,
the living wrecks
wreak their havoc
upon this world
the disenchanted,
The         romantics,
the body face and
soul of        you is
B5	       C#5	  F#5
gone down that deep black hole

F#5	     E5	A5  (2 measures)

F#5	     E5	A5  (2x)
destroy the mind
destroy the bo dy
but you cannot des-
-troy the    heart and

F#5	Ab5	A5	            B5        	  C#5 A5 F#5
you,            you make me so i need to 	  disconnect
and you make it so real i don't need your love to disconnect

F#5 / (gliss) A5 F#5  (real fast 4 measures)
E5  (let E ring through 5?th measure of this section)

F#5 (palm muting, 2 measures then lyrics are spoken, lots of feedback/ noise on guitar 2)
to runaround kids in get-go cars
with vaseline afterbirths and neon coughs
galaxies full of nobodies
giving us the farewell runarounds
i took a virgin mary axe to his sweet baby jane, (slow down & open strings)
lost my innocence to a no good girl,(even slower now)
scratch my face with anvil hands,

(staccato F#5 chord then these lyrics are sung acapella)
and coil my tongue around a bumblebee mouth

      A maj E maj         F#5 (3x, feedback and gliss. with F#5)
and i give it all back to you

        E5 (4 measures, palm muting slowly releases to open chord)
Its for you

(chords ring)
F#5	Ab5	         A5                B5      C#5 A5 F#5
no way, i don't need it, i don't need your love to disconnect
and you make it, so real, i don't need your love to disconnect

F#5 / (gliss) A5 E F#5  (real fast 4 measures)
E5  (let E ring through 5?th measure of this section)

F#5	     E5	A5  (8 measures under guitar solo)

F#5	Ab5    A5	    B5    C#5 A5 F#5(2x)
No way, no way, no way -ay -ay to disconnect
and you make it, so real, i don't need your love to disconnect

F#5 / (gliss) A5 E F#5  (real fast 4 measures)
F#5 / (gliss) A5  E   (let E ring on 4?th measure.  This is a good song for a big noisy ending.)

(Now smash your guitar, bow and toss your pick into the crowd.)
