maj7
You look like A perfect fit
maj7 /
For a girl in need of a tourniquet
But can you save me
Come on and save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
maj7
'Cause I can tell you know what it's like
maj7 /
The long farewell of the hunger strike
You struck me dumb
Like radium mm mm
Like peter pan or superman
You will come
To save me
Come on and save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone 3x
-maj7 2x
But can you save me
Come on and save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone 3x
for electric rhythm part in the bridge, I get this:
the electric guitar is tuned down 1/2 step to Eb
Starting with that lick before the bridge, which would now be
< = stretch up
> = release back down
+ = hammer-on

That would be an arrangement to play electric guitar, tuned down 1/2 step,
all the way thru, just playing quietly until the bridge
