Please note that when transcribing stuff at the 12th fret it is difficult
to tell the difference between a note played at the 12th fret from an open
string, since the note at the 12th fret is an octave higher from its open
string. Have a good listen to the recording and use your best judgement!
x is a muted string or a string slap.
A - 10th fret
B - 11th fret
C - 12th fret
D - 13th fret, etc.

0DDDD0 0CCCC0
|||||| ||||||
Living in Turbulent Indigo?
Same chords for the next verses:
Brash fields, crude crows
In a scary sky.
In a golden frame,
Roped off,
Tourists guided by.
Tourists talking about the madhouse,
Tourists talking about the ear.
The madman hangs in fancy homes
They wouldn't let him near!
He'd piss in their fireplace!
He'd drag them through Turbulent Indigo.

"I'm a burning hearth," he said.
"People see the smoke,
But no one comes to warm themselves
Sloughing off a coat.
And all my little landscapes,
All my yellow afternoons,
Stack up around this vacancy
Like dirty cups and spoons.
No mercy sweet Jesus!
No mercy from Turbulent Indigo."
