  • Before I do anything, the guitar for the chorus section (the "crash into my
    arms" part) is:
     
  • A E D E A
    E ----------------|-----------------|-------------|----------------|
    B -6~---6--7-9-6~-|--6-6-6--7-9--6~-|--6--7-9-6~--|-9-9-9--7--6----|
  • G ----------------|-----------------|-------------|-------------7~-|
    D ----------------|-----------------|-------------|----------------|
    A ----------------|-----------------|-------------|----------------|
  • E ----------------|-----------------|-------------|----------------|
     
    A E D E F5 F#m
  • E ----------------|-----------------|-------------|----------------|
    B -6~---6--7-9-6~-|--6-6-6--7-9--6~-|--6--7-9-6~--|-9-9-9--10--11--|
    G ----------------|-----------------|-------------|----------------|
  • D ----------------|-----------------|-------------|----------------|
    A ----------------|-----------------|-------------|----------------|
    E ----------------|-----------------|-------------|----------------|

    The other important part that is featured in this song is that eerie guitar
    part which starts from a high-pitched note down (you know what I mean). I
  • believe it's just (on the high E string):
     
    E -18-18-17--/////(all the way down to the second fret)///----|
  • B ------------------------------------------------------------|
    G ------------------------------------------------------------|
    D ------------------------------------------------------------|
  • A ------------------------------------------------------------|
    E ------------------------------------------------------------|
     
  • The lyrics and chords for the song is as follows:
     
    Intro: F#m D Bm (4x)
  •  
    F#m D Bm
    Oh, you look so tired
  • F#m D Bm
    Mouth is slack and wide
    F#m D Bm
  • Ill-housed and ill-advised
    F#m D Bm A
    Your face is as mean as your life has been
  •  
    E D
    Crash into my arms
  • E A
    I want you
    E D
  • You don't agree but you don't refuse
    E - F5
    I know you
  •  
    F#m D Bm
    And I know a place
  • F#m D Bm
    Where no one is likely to pass
    F#m D Bm
  • Oh, you don't care if it's late
    F#m D Bm
    And you don't care if you're lost
  • F#m D Bm
    And, oh, you look so tired
    F#m D Bm
  • But tonight you presume too much
    F#m D Bm
    Too much, too much
  • F#m
    And if it's the last thing I ever do
    D Bm A
  • I'm gonna get you
     
    E D
  • Crash into my arms
    E A
    I want you
  • E D
    You don't agree but you don't refuse
    E - F5
  • I know you
     
    Break: F#m
  •  
    F#m D Bm (4x)
    A E D E (2x)<-- played with chorus riff
  •  
    A E D
    Crash into my arms
  • D A
    I want you
    E
  • You don't agree
    D
    'Cause you don't refuse
  • E
    I know you
     
  •  
    End on F#m
     
  • Note that the chorus starts on the A chord. The A chord appears on the last
    line in the verse of my transcription because Morrissey sings a second and a
    half after the chord is played.
