Notes from uploader: There are actually 2 guitars, but I only used the
second one in the CHORUS as it is really not needed!
This is from "Guitar World" April 2005!

All tabs for this song seem to have one or more
things wrong, so I decided to make one myself. Altough
this is my first tab, I am a big fan of the killers and
have seen a lot of live videos of the band performing this
song, so I'm confident that it is 100% right. Enjoy!
Tuning: half step down (Eb AB Db Gb Bb eb)
Intro/Verse (play 5 times, because the first is without vocals):
eb:----------0---------------0---------------0--------------0--------|
Bb:-----------17--------------17--------------17-------------17------|
Gb:-----19------19-------19-----19-------19-----19------19-----19----|
Db:---16--16-------0---16--16------0---16--16-----16--16--16------0--|
Ab:-17---------------16----------------------------------------------|
Eb:----------------------------------15-------------15---------------|
The open D string in the main riff above is used as a
transition to make it sound more "fluid". It's hard to
hear but it's there.
Pre-Chorus (starts on the "chest now" part:
eb:--------0---------------0---------------0----------------0-------|
Bb:----------5---------------5---------------5----------------5-----|
Gb:-----7------7--------7------7-------7-------7--------7-------7---|
Db:---0---0------0----0---0------0---0---0-------0----0---0-------0-|
Ab:--------------------------------0----------------0---------------|
Eb:-7---------------7-----------------------------------------------|
eb|-------0----------------0---------------0----------------0--------|
Bb|---------5----------------5---------------5----------------5------|
Gb|----7------7--------7-------7-------7-------7--------7-------7----|
Db|--0---0-------0---0---0-------0---0---0-------0----0---0-------0--|
Ab|------------------------------------------------------------------|
Eb|-3--------------3---------------3----------------3----------------|
What's going on in the pre-chorus is basically
just 3 chord shapes:(7x0750, x00750, 3x0750). You
repeat the progression 2 times, playing the first
two cords for 2 bars each and the third chord for 4 bars.
*NOTE:I highly recomend playing the 7x0750 chord
with you second finger on the 6th string, third finger
on 3rd string and the first finger on the second
string, that's the way dave keuning plays it and it
makes it a lot easier to hold the chord.
Chorus:
Part 1(play 2 times):
eb:-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb:-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb:--11--11--11--11----12--12--12--12---14--14--14--14---9---7---6---7----|
Db:----12--12--12--12----12--12--12--12---12--12--12--12---7---7---7---7--|
Ab:-----------------------------------------------------------------------|

Part 2 (play 2 times):

Gb:---11----11----11---12----12----12---14----14----14--9---7---6---7---|
Db:-----12----12---------12----12---------12----12--------7---7---7---7-|
Ab:---------------------------------------------------------------------|
Eb:---------------------------------------------------------------------|
Interlude 1(played after the first chorus):
Same as Part 1 of the chorus. Play it twice(with no vocals)
and back to the verse:
*NOTE: Sometimes, live, Dave plays just the last
chord of the interlude slightly different to make
it easier to go to the first chord of the verse
again(wich is quite hard to get used to):
eb:--------------|
Bb:--------------|
Gb:-9---7---6----|
Db:---7---7---7--|
Ab:--------------|
Eb:--------------|
Interlude 2( played twice after the second chorus):
eb:---------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb:---------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb:-11--11--12--14--12--14--12--11--11--11--12--11---9--7--6--7---|
Db:---12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12---7--7--7--7-|
Db:---------------------------------------------------------------|
Ab:---------------------------------------------------------------|
Eb:---------------------------------------------------------------|
Ending (First 3 times are the same as the
part 1 of the chorus:
eb:-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb:-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb:--11--11--11--11---12--12--12--12---14--14--14--14---9---7---6---7-----|

Ab:-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Eb:-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
And then( the 4th time):
eb:-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb:-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb:--11--11--11--11--12--12--12--12--14--14--14--14---9---7---6-----------|
Db:----12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12---7---7-------------|
Ab:-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Eb:-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Notes from uploader: I hope I dindn't make this too disorganized to
understand! haha. It's a fantastic tune composed with a lot of
creative guitar parts.
Live, Dave plays the ending with regular D G Bm A chords but the
last time, instead of the A chord hes plays:
eb:--------------|
Bb:--------------|
Gb:-9---7---6----|
Db:---7---7------|
Ab:--------------|
Eb:--------------|
