Tuning: All standard except for the lap steel guitar, it's in open E (EBEG#Be), near the end
Note: the lead guitar that follows the vocal line in the verses is too
rhythmically random to tab too clean.
The notes are there, the measures are too, but you'll have to listen to the song
to get a better idea of them.
Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr. John Paul Jones (piano intro)

The guitar in the beginning sounds extremely distorted and reverbed, and hitting
rhythms in three's.
Use a slide guitar to ge the sound of the feedback at the end:

Once, out in the rain, I was able to strangle my shadow then unshackle the chains (Chain)
What, what will you do? It is safe to play god in the garden and king of the zoo? (You)
Holes, they need to be filled, Positions availible, yet some are quite hard to get out
of or in (In)

Verse 2:
Cold, alone and alive, you're afraid but that's not what I asked, wanna go for a ride?
Sharpen your teeth my darlings, sharpen your minds,
Take a finger, if the hand feeds you shit, take one scalp at a time
