Needles in My Eyes by The Beta Band - tabs

Here are the chords to Needles in my eyes by The Beta Band. I couldn't find the chords anywhere so I decided to get them myself, and enrich the internet tubes with my brilliance. No need to thank me, unless you are a girl, in which case, I am willing to have a one night stand with you ;) BUT only if you behave.

The key is E Maj. And the current easy version has only three chords, and all majors, something that I don't usually see. So have fun, this is a great song to play, and is easy, although the vocal rhythm is a bit 'syncopated.' The chord shifts are not accurate, just listen to the record and get it, quite simple actually. This is my first draft, will refine it in a day or two.

And forgive the hyphens, I cant be assed to google how to put spaces in blogger, because it keeps removing the spaces, I tried 3 different ways.
