I believe this to be as accurate a reflection of the Killers' own harmonies as is possible in this format, and even this is not really quite right because there are short sections of intrumental arrangement which are employed to break up the song and which I have omitted. Please do add these if you are able - I would be interested to see what someone else makes of them.
