Rather than splitting the song 
between two guitars or choosing 
between playing the riff or the 
chords,
there is a solution... As you play 
the chords, simply hammer the 7th 
onto the C#m and
hammer the 6th onto the Am7, so they
 look like this:

E|-------4------4--4-------------
B|-------5------5--6----------5--
G|-------6------6--4-------------
D|-------6------6--6-------6-----

C#m                       Am7
My balls are coals in the bottom of 
our bed
     C#m                     
That sags with the ash of our 
 Am7
passion spent
C#m                          Am7
I kicked the coals to see if they're
 still lit
C#m                     Am7
Oh, how much more can I take of 
this?
E                   Asus4 Am     
I don't know how much more I can 
E        Asus4 Am
take of this


C#m                     Am7
You get undressed and I watch the 
show
C#m                   Am7
You lie beside me but I stay cool
C#m                    Am7
Then the next morning again we go
C#m                       Am7
You dress for work and I watch that,
 too
E                   Asus4 Am     
I don't know how much more I can 
E        Asus4 Am
take of this


Bbm                     A
I know this tunnel will end with 
light
    C#m              A
But I can't see it, I can't see it
Bbm                  A
Must be a reason to stay polite
    C#m              A
But I can't see it, I can't see it
Bbm         A                 C#m
I keep the fire alive in the night
A        Bbm   A         C#m  
  In the night, in the night, 
A       Bbm       A
 in the night, oh oh oh


C#m                       A7
  I'm sick of sleeping in body ash
C#m                       A7
  Our bed is heaping with body ash
C#m                       A7
  I'm sick of sleeping in body ash
C#m                       A7
  Our bed is heaping with body ash

E D# D C# (single note run-down on A
 string)


C#m                  Am7
We go for coffee and comfy chairs
C#m                          Am7
Your pen is to your lips but I don't
 stare
    C#m                       Am7
You lean over the table and between 
your hair
C#m                          Am7
I can't pretend that I don't see 
what's there
C#m (hit)
Sure, sure, I'm a gentleman but this
 just ain't fair


Bbm                     A

I keep the fire alive in the night
A        Bbm   A         C#m  
  In the night, in the night, 
A       Bbm       A
 in the night, oh oh oh
