Through C# Minor: Through G# Minor:
G ------------------ ------------------|

A ------2----4-4---- ------2-4---2-2---|
E --2-4---4--------- --2-4-------------|
Instead of the bass going down to the fourth
fret on the bottom string to play the root
of the G# Minor, it stays on the second fret
of the A string and sits on the minor 3rd, B.
Prominent Guiar Line through Verse:

I think I've seen Bob Rock voice the seventh fret on the
heavy E string with the fourth fret barred and the
sixth frets on the A and D depressed, but not exclusively.

Slightly driven Lead Guitar, through Bridge section
The minor on the C#m for the lead parts is just implied,
I don't bother fretting the minor thirds when doing the
driven guitars

The fourth time through the bridge, they don't go back up to
the B, they just go down to the A, cut it short, and then back

5.) Lyrics
Can I touch you to see if you're real?
Is it nothing this something I feel?
Can my heart take the strain?
Or will it break down again?
In your lips I sense a danger
You've got the eyes of a stranger
Have I been sleeping for all these years?
Is it magic that makes you appear?
When you walked in the room I felt my heart race
But knew I'd been fooled when I looked at your face
In your lips I sense a danger
You've got the eyes of a stranger
In your lips I see a danger
You've got the eyes of a stranger
In your lips I sense a danger
You've got the eyes of a stranger
In your lips I see a danger
You've got the eyes of a stranger
* - It seems that all the lyric engines on the internet
are reporting the second verse incorrectly. As far as I
know, what I've got here is correct.
