(note: The importance of the B7/D# chord in this particular song is the tension heard between the D# and A
[the tritone interval]. To make the chord sound better in the the context of the song, emphasize/highlight
the dissonance between the two notes. On guitar, I like to make the tension most audible by playing a chord
shape that has the tritone interval on the highest strings, shown below.

As the descent began I got the distinct impression
Lake Michigan had been frozen for decades
I conducted the warmth from my metronome sternum
To our massive jetting vessel billowing plumes of spent fuel
B D#m
The tundra under us cracked and ruptured
G#m
To reveal palisades
C#m
Made of blades of gray, gray bristling grass
E
And papulose lichen
B
I was so frightened
E
As my grip on you tightened
E
Your skin got slicker
B D#m
I am a deserted bus depot
G#m
Though our approach suggested
B7/D# D#7 E
An American hazy sea
C#m
Like the one I found inside
E
After driving you home once
E
Still half high
B E x3
G#m7 E
B E B E
I-90 through utter desolation
B E B E
I sense evil at the heart of each far flung well lighted home
B E B E
I close my eyes and see cellar stairways
B E G#m7 E
Vermiculated with delicate animal bone
B D#m
Musty rooms house racks of fur jackets
G#m
Spattered with plasma
C#m
On a bus in Indiana
E
I called you and screamed
B E E
Under ceaseless patterns of weeping light
B B7/D# D#7 G#m B7/D# D#7 E C#m
D# E E
G#m B C#m B7/D#
B G#m B7/D# E C#m E C#m
Although the original song ends with the C#m, I like resolving the song by adding a B at
the end.
