The Kills - Future Starts Slow
By Ollietherocker
I worked this out on standard tuning for those of you who (quite rightly) 
are too afraid to venture into the depths of drop B tuning fearing that 
your guitar may never recover.
Please note this isn't transposed into standard, its still the same notes 
as if you were playing in drop B.
Tuning: Standard
[Riff]

[Intro] - [Riff 1] x2
Bmyou can holler, you can wail
DYou can swing, you can flail
GYou can thump like a brokeDn sail
BmBut I'll never give you up
DIf I ever give you up my hGeart will surely fDail

BmAnd after all GoDd can keep my soul
GEngland have my boDnes
BmBut don't ever give me up
