Breath on a Window  Alice in Chains

Tuning half step down
However, all chords listed are with respect to their position in standard tuning.
Does that make sense? For example, I have E for the first chord.
Technically, it would be an Eb because of the tuning, but the shape is that
of an E in standard tuning...I think anyone that finds this tab should be
able to play the song.
Intro: E
Verse 1:
[E]Mending fence along the road
[G]Barely [D]holding [E]together
[E]Mapless zone the road signs holed
[G]Keep ahea[D]d of the [E]weather
[E]Long past time to close dead eyes
[G]Find a [D]break in the [E]highway
[E]Out here I'm invisible
[G]Very few [D]going my[E] way
*Chorus:
[A]Breath on a wind[E]ow s[A]howing tic tac [E]toe
[A]Rear view [C]reflec[G]ting there ain't nobod[E]y home
Verse 2:
[E]Ghost town strip of misery
[G]I ain't [D]feeling no [E]better
[E]Road kill heart inside of me
[G]Follow [D]it to the [E]letter
[E]Sundown brings a welcome change
[G]Everyth[D]ing that's [E]hiding
[E]More at home in landscapes strange
[G]Are you se[D]lling I'm [E]buying
*Chorus:
[A]Breath on a wind[E]ow s[A]howing tic tac [E]toe
[A]Rear view [C]reflec[G]ting there ain't nobod[E]y home
[A]Cigarette burn h[E]oles [A]outline an old [E]soul
[A]Connect the [C]dot scribb[G]ling
And you would neve[E]r know
Bridge?: F# A A# (use power chords)
[F#]Failed t[A]o h[A#]ead the sign[F#]al[A] [A#]
[F#]Thought [A]you[A#] got through[F#] just i[A]n t[A#]ime (it was hard to line these up
F# A A# F# A A# exactly with the lyrics...so
Crashing hard upon your ego I didn't)
[F#]Penetrat[A]ed [A#]from the sid[F#]e[A] [A#]
[F#] [A] [A#]  
Outro:
[D]I'd l[F#]et you go, but you're [E]always in the [Bm]way
[D]I'm the [F#]damage done, your s[C#]car of yester[E]day
[D]I'd l[F#]ove to go, but you're [E]always in the [Bm]way
[D]I'm the [F#]damage done, your s[C#]car of yesterd[E]ay.
Fade Out:
[D] [F#] [E] [Bm]  
[D] [F#] [C#] [E]  
* For the first two A chords, you can try power chords and sliding
them up a half step and back twice before playing the E to sound like
the record. The last A you can do one half step slide and then go to
the C.
Picking for the bridge:

I figured this out on an acoustic...sometime I have my electric out
I'll work on the outro solo.
