INXS - "kiss the dirt" Tablature

These are the chords fro Kiss the Dirt (Falling Down the Mountain)
by INXS from the album Listen Like Thieves. This close on the most
part. I could pick up many of the ambiquities Kirk and Tim playing
on the video. The D#m sounds close in the chorus. The E in the lyrics
took me along time to come up with but a second opinion would
be appreciated.
Notes: I play all the chords as barre chords. I play C# on the
4th and sixth frets and D#m on the six through eigth frets. The
band plays these farther up the neck (8th and 10th frets) in the
video. With my acoustic, I can't reach this higher chords very
well. The E also sounds good as an open chord.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official INXS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
