The Killers - Human

Original Key = Bb, a capo on the 3rd fret may be used
I play it in G to lower the key to fit my voice register and have open chords

I adapted this version for sing along guitar only accompaniment
I added the lead melody lines for playing with a simple base or fellow guitarist or bassist.

[Intro]



[Verse]

             
I did my best 

           
to notice when

             
 the call came

          
 down the line

.
             
Up to the plat

            
form of surren

             
der I was brou

              
ght, but I was

 
 kind.
             
And sometimes 

           
I get nervous 

             
when I see an 

     
open door.
             
Close your eye

              
s, clear your 

       
heart.


[Chorus]

             
Cut the cord, 

           
are we human,.

           
..or are we da

ncer?
           
My sign is vit

             
al, my hands a

   
re cold.
             
And I'm on my 

           
knees looking 

        
for the answer

.
            
Are we human,.

           
..or are we da

ncer?
