Biography:
The Raveonettes are an indie rock/shoegaze/noise pop duo formed in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 2001. Comprising Sune Rose Wagner (guitar, instruments, vocals), formerly of Psyched Up Janis, and Sharin Foo (guitar and vocals), their music is characterized by close two-part vocal harmony inspired by The Everly Brothers, coupled with hard-edged electric guitar overlaid with liberal doses of noise.
The name, The Raveonettes, is a direct reference to The Ronettes, and Buddy Holly's song Rave On!.

Listen to the song as you read, this won't make sense otherwise. All comments welcome. ;)
Intro: Play G# barre chord, hammer off/on strings 6 and 5 when appropriate.
After the initial G# part of the intro, the chord progression is:
G# C# G# C# D# C# (x3)
G# C#
With a hole in my head I looked for you
G# C#
through the trenches of war the whole world through
D# C#
my desire to leave with you I just cant constrain
Regret everything Ive done so far
when the pillars of love are all blown apart
I stumble through the rubble and decay
When Im terrified I close my eyes
when Im sad and blue I choose to fight
heartbreak only can take you to the other side
My impression of you is hard to comprehend
when two people have no time to spend
you’re the dreamiest girl that ever entered my life
The bliss I feel knowing youre delirious
makes me feel oh so imperious
when the longing comes Ill fight it till the end
When all broken dreams are glued back together
and theres nothing to talk about not even the weather
and all rivals are all laid to rest
When in purity I silently reach for you
when scarecrows shivered and the corn fields too
Ive reached my goal of eternity with you
When that hateful restless feeling does subside
and your perfume lingers coolly in my night
I'm fit to leave this war behind
I recharge and revolt
my time has come
And Im tempted to duel
even the sun
Ill dodge the rays
and kill it with my gun
Outro: Fade out on the same chords.
