Verse Chords: These are played in a very fast strumming pattern, just copy off the album as well as you can.. e|--10-10-10-10-10---9--9--9--9--9----7--7--7--7--7---9--9--9--9--9---- b|--10-10-10-10-10---9--9--9--9--9----7--7--7--7--7---9--9--9--9--9---- g|--12-12-12-12-12---11-11-11-11-11---9--9--9--9--9---11-11-11-11-11--- d|--12-12-12-12-12---11-11-11-11-11---9--9--9--9--9---11-11-11-11-11--- a|--10---------------9----------------7---------------9--9--9--9--9---- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------- You play that a few times, then play the same thing with a small variation.. e|--10-10-10-10-10---9--9--9--9--9----8--8--8--8--8----8--8--8--8--8----- b|--10-10-10-10-10---9--9--9--9--9----8--8--8--8--8----8--8--8--8--8----- g|--12-12-12-12-12---11-11-11-11-11---10-10-10-10-10---10-10-10-10-10---- d|--12-12-12-12-12---11-11-11-11-11---10-10-10-10-10---10-10-10-10-10---- a|--10---------------9----------------8----------------8----------------- E|----------------------------------------------------------------------- Now comes the chorus, with some really cool lyrics, as well. :-) e|----8----8----8----8-------7---7------5---5------3---3---3---3------ b|----8----8----8----8-------7---7------5---5------3---3---3---3------ g|----8----8----8----8-------7---7------5---5------3---3---3---3------ d|----10---10---10---10------9---9------7---7------5---5---5---5------ a|----10---10---10---10------9---9------7---7------5---5---5---5------ E|----8----8----8----8-------7---7------5---5------3---3---3---3------ "Kerosene... keeps me warm...

Kerosene..." Now after doing that stuff a few times, (just follow the album) you will come across the "solo" section of the song, with a bridge of sorts followed by a guitar solo. You play the intro to the chorus just as you would if a normal chorus was to come about, but then you play this riff. These are the chords... e|----8----8----8----8------7---7------5---5------3---3---3---3------ b|----8----8----8----8------7---7------5---5------3---3---3---3------ g|----8----8----8----8------7---7------5---5------3---3---3---3------ d|----10---10---10---10-----9---9------7---7------5---5---5---5------ a|----10---10---10---10-----9---9------7---7------5---5---5---5------ E|----8----8----8----8------7---7------5---5------3---3---3---3------ e|----0---0-----10---10-----8----8----8----8------10---10---10---10-- b|----0---0-----10---10-----8----8----8----8------10---10---10---10-- g|----0---0-----10---10-----8----8----8----8------10---10---10---10-- d|----2---2-----12---12-----10---10---10---10-----12---12---12---12-- a|----2---2-----12---12-----10---10---10---10-----12---12---12---12-- E|----0---0-----10---10-----8----8----8----8------10---10---10---10-- You just have to piece it together and play the certain parts when they come around in the song.
