Kiss The Dirt Tab

  These are the chords fro Kiss the Dirt (Falling Down the Mountain)
by INXS from the album Listen Like Thieves.  This close on the most 
part.  I could pick up many of the ambiquities Kirk and Tim playing
on the video.  The D#m sounds close in the chorus.  The E in the lyrics
took me along time to come up with but a second opinion would
be appreciated.

Notes:  I play all the chords as barre chords.  I play C# on the
4th and sixth frets and D#m on the six through eigth frets.  The
band plays these farther up the neck (8th and 10th frets) in the
video.  With my acoustic, I can't reach this higher chords very
well.  The E also sounds good as an open chord.

Kiss the Dirt (Falling Down The Mountain) - INXS
(.Farriss/M.Hutchence)
Album: Listen Like Thieves



    Playing in the dust

    We find the seeds of doubt

    Don't water them with your tears

    Don't think about all the years
                            
    You'd rather be without


    Eden lets me in

    I find the seeds of love

    And climb upon the highwire

    I kiss and tell all my fears

  
    Falling down the mountain
   
    End up kissing dirt
  
    Look a little closer
  
    Somethimes it wouldn't hurt

  
    Playing in the dirt

    We find the seeds of fun

    And we scream like alleycats

    Tearing down what we attack
                               
    To prove that we are one


    Cutting through the night

    We find the seeds of lust

    And lose our minds on one intent

    These passions never seem to end


  
    Falling down the mountain
   
    End up kissing dirt
  
    Look a little closer
  
    Somethimes it wouldn't hurt

    
    
    
 
                            
    Falling down the mountain
                       
    End up kissing dirt
                       
    Look a little closer
                              
    Somethimes it wouldn't hurt
                      
    Get up get up get up
                               
    Get up to the top

                            
    Falling down the mountain
                       
    End up kissing dirt

    Falling falling
  


    Cutting through the night

    And we find the seeds of lust

    And lose our minds on one intent

    These passions never seem to end


  
    Falling down the mountain
  
    End up kissing dirt
  
    Look a little closer
  
    Somethimes it wouldn't hurt
