Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I got a chrome  plated heart
 I got wings on these fingers trying to tear it apart
  I got angels crying  from up above
  And they got rust  in their eyes
 
  They got rust on their love But I have learned
 to leave no stone  unturned
 
 And keep the wall against  my back
 And the love is real as the day is long
 And the night is black
  (same chords as the above)
 I got a two dollar stare
 Midas in my touch and Deliliah in my hair
 I got bad intentions on the soles of my shoes
 With this red hot fever and chromium blues
 And I will feel another lover's wheel
 And drive for miles and not look back
 And the love is real as the day is long
 And the night is black
 As black as night
  And I'll dance  in time and the times are rough
  And I'll pay  the price and I'll pray that  it's enough
  And just outside the door where it always rains
  I'll  take the time to polish these scratches and these stains
  (back to first verse)
  And the only way I know where the train will go
  Is when I'm sleeping on the tracks
  And the love is real as the day is long
  And the night is black
  And the niight is black
  As black as night
