Strum
D-DU-UDU
Black  fingernails, red  wine
I  wanna make you, all mine
A  lot of people, underground
You  wanna get there
 You gotta go straight down  Woo-hoo-ha-ho  Staight down
 Palm muted
There's  a culture, everywhere
Smoke  clouds, hang in the air
It's  so loud, can't  hear you talk
You  and I, should take a walk downtown  Woo-hoo-ha-ho
 Straight down
 Downtown  Woo-hoo-ha-ho
 Straight down
 The argument  over god  continues
 In this house
 All  of us stand and point  our fingers
 At the ground
 
 All  of us stand and point our fingers Woo-hoo-ha-ho
 Straight down
 Red-letter day, black heart
 Its gonna tear you, all apart
 It's so loud; can't hear you call
 You and I, are gonna fall straight down
 Straight down
 Downtown
 Straight down
 The argument over god continues
 In this house
 All of us stand and point our fingers
 At the ground
 Argument over all continues
 In this house
 All of stand and point our fingers
 Straight down x3
 Black fingernails, red wine
 I wanna make you, all mine
 A lot of people, underground
 You wanna get there, you gotta go straight down
 The argument over god continues
 In this house
 All of us stand and point our fingers
 At the ground
 The argument over all continues
 In this house
 All of us stand and point our fingers
 Straight down x3
 Hope it´s correct, I´m not sure about the F in the chorus, though. Any corrections:
 welcome to post a corrected version of the tab.
 Have fun, sincerely yours William II.
