You're The One I Want

I've liked this song for years, but I had been too lazy to tab it out. I this is pretty 
close. Sounds great with some light overdrive.

Standard Tuning

Verse 1:

    F                            Bb

       Blooming black            flower wine
       Slashed arms              and new cut smiles
       Taller for                the falling down
       Stronger now              without you around


Verse 2:

       The prophecies            were realized
       When we gave              them proper time
       All truths                come to light

Move the Bb up to the 6th fret on the fourth line to play this little arpeggio and take 
advantage of the Bb note on the high e.

       You've grown more beautiful

       Cookie crumbs             and alcohol.
       Crooked hands             the band's on hold
       'cause your shoulders     make me old

Move the Bb up to the 6th fret on the fourth line again.

       When you smile
       Crooked style
       You've grown more beautiful
       Since you took off
       What can I do
       I'm in love with you
       And I can't stop

       What's best for everyone is bound to hurt somebody
       What's best for everyone is killing me

Do each of the arpeggios four times.

       Blood crushed             from a clock
       I'm in love               but we just talk
       And your teeth            make me weak

This time, instead of the arpeggio, you just do some bends on one string.
