In standard tab notation a forward 
slash means "slide up," but in 
standard
chord notation it's used to indicate
 a chord with an alternate bass 
note.
To make sure there's no confusion, 
I'll notate the slide with a forward
 arrow
(>), like this:

          C#5       E       B5   
There's a snakeskin bedroom bang 
       F#
in the middle
     B5 > C#5        C#5   B5    
  C#5     E5 C#5
Of a fun——ny  little place called 
"Hell." (Oh well.)
C#5       E           B5        
Everybody there's got trouble by
     F#
 the dozen
       B5 > C#5       C#5   B5 
C#5   E5 C#5
It's a lone-ly little place to dwell
 .  .
G#
. Hope I don't make the trip through
 the floor
    F#                             
You told me once, "I want it but 
  G#
you wanted it more"

 C#5 E5 C#5 :||

C#5    E        B5       F#
I know kung fu, you know nothing

But toge——-ther we can make it real.
 (Good deal.)
C#5         E       B5           
Kicking our own way out of every 
F#
prison
     B5 > C#5        C#5  B5   
C#5   E5 C#5
With my   brains and your high heels
 .  .
G#                                
. Love your myth coupled with your
            G# G
 vast ocean .  .
F#                        G#     
Take my eyes as the prize for 
           G# A
your devotion .  .

C
Make me a saint I'll be the voice of
 restraint
          B     Bb                
I'll take their bullwhips and 
                     A  G#
stones without a hint of complaint

A fun—-ny thing to know you've died?
 (Doves cried.)
C#5    E            B5         
Angels wept just as if I was a 
F#
brother

E5 C#5
And sang the blues for my bride .  .

C#5               E         B5  
I've been keeping time in a 
     F#
skeleton soul band
B5 >  C#5          C#5   B5   C#5
     E5 C#5
Don't it make your heart just bleed?
 (In-deed.)
C#5        E           B5       
Keeping my nose clean, hoping I 
    F#
can crash land

  E5 C#5
Back where I've got mouths to feed .

             G# G
my confusion .  .
       F#                          
You'll see me in the fires of your

own disillusion .  . .

Charted by Dexex

I write chord charts to show how, as
 a rhythm guitarist,
I play songs. I don't claim they are
 the "right" way. They're not
intended to be taken as tabs which 
notate exactly how a song was played
on a recording.
