In The Dust Tab

These chords are not the exact ones, but i tried to make them as close as 
For example, I don't know the correct lyrics to this one so where I don't know 
what it should be, I write --- instead. 

NOTE: I'm not sure that the key is exactly E on the record, nor any other key 
really. To me, it sounds like it's played between 2 keys :S   So if you wanna play 
along with the record, you'll have to untune your guitar or experiment with the 
pitch in programs such as 'Best Practice'.

In The Dust - Atomic Swing

Intro - , , , ,
      - , ,    ,
                                                  
Meanwhile the night turns the story into drama       
                                            
the clowns to ghosts and the law men to thieves
             
I'm sitting alone
                          
   on the top of the church
                        
   under the clock-tower roof
                      
   I get some hours of trust
                               
   when I am here in the dust
                                    
   and picture the world form a little above
                            
In the dust,     from a little above


                                                    
The world sleeps safe on her pillow now, ma'm
                                                      
and the wind plays with leaves on the staircase below
                  
and just like the wind
                      
  I had a playmate who coped
                 
   ------------------
                          
   when life felt hard and unjust
                        
   and we're here in the dust
                                     
   and pictured the world from a little above
                           
in the dust,    from a little above

(Badampadadadampadam)

              
so if you are young
                   
  and almost out of regret
              
  stay forever young
                              
  'cause sparkling youth go to rust

                          
  when you are here in the dust
                                   
  and picture the world from a little above
                          
In the dust,    from a little above

                                               
In the dust,    I'm ringin' the bell for my missing companion
                           
In the dust,    from a little above - I bought the world

(((I don't know the chords in the following part but I play the bass here like 
this. This part is not synced with the lyrics )))

In the dust, you know that, you know that I would never, let  you down

in the dust,    you could have been free, well maybe you are now
                                     
in the dust,    you know I never will   be
