Basilica

Here is a rough version of how to play the song.
A lot of the notes are hard to distinguish because he uses so much
distortion, so these are only the major notes.  Enjoy


C#           A     E              D          C#
      Sunken eyed, best friend of mine
       A          E            D             C#
why do you sit so still, still shaking?
      A     E             D              C#
Super hero, sapped of all powers,
          A         E             D
I kneel beside you, watch you for hours.

Pre-Chorus:
B            C#        A
  There's an angel on you
B         C#                A
  Leaning down to kiss your cheek
B           C#          A
  Feather's floating on air
B         C#            A
  This is my prayer for you.

Verse again:
Steps of stone, morning bright blue.
Stick of flame, a candle winks at you.
In the pew, head down I'm crying .
I think you have thoughts of dying.

Pre-Chorus again:
I'm eclipsing them now.
Calling all allies down.
I'm consumed by your eyes.
Keep them open and wide.		Chorus tab=#1			Chorus Tab=#2

#1                                    D
   They love all that they see.

Verse:
Dewy palm, cemetery lawn.
Walk alone in gardens of loss.
You could have a flower of stone.
Never let this soil come between us.

Pre-Chorus:
I'm asking you on a date.
For the rest of your life.

Chorus

After that I'm not so sure about, it sounds like an octave F then C# with 
some arpegiation.  Then the really distorted part sounds like the bass line.
Have fun!
