The easiest and quickest song to tab so far! Only 2 guitars. Guitar 1 is a clean
electric which plays figure 1 played where indicated and guitar 2 is a distorted
electric which plays the solo and a few random bends in the background just
before the solo begins which I haven't bothered to tab.
Guitar 1 - Clean Electric
Guitar 2 - Distorted Electric
==============================
verse 1
=======
Sheltering her ego on the edge of a floodlit arc
She'll contemplate seduction, she'll calculate the catch
When she moved, her presence speared me
When she spoke, her words ensnared me
Chorus
======
Watch the lizard, watch the lizard,
Watch the lizard with the crimson veil
verse 2
=======
She crucified my heart in the depth of a satin grave
As I lay in sweating monologue I sensed the lovelight fade
Within the spiral of the cigarette
You betrayed your bedside etiquette
Chorus
======
I saw the lizard, I saw the lizard
I touched the lizard with the crimson veil
Synth Solo

I've seen a different doorway shut a million times before
The smiling she chameleon, the smiling vinyl whores

Outro
=====
They know what they want, they sing your name
And glide between the sheets
I never say no, in chemical glow we'll let our bodies meet
So was it just a fuck, was it just a fuck, just another fuck I said
Loving just for laughs, carnal autograph, lying on a lizard's bed
So was it just a fuck, was it just a fuck, just another fuck I bled
Degraded and alone, raped and still forlorn
Betrayed on a lizard's bed
We chameleon, we chameleon, we chameleon
