As performed 4/3/12 at Quilmes Rock in Argentina...
==PART A==
F C F F7
Sometimes the windmills combine with the suns in a way
Db Gdim Asus4 Asus4
That twitches on a picketed place where the spirits lay, hey
Dm Dm/C# F/C Fmaj7/C
One thing leads to another, nights for sleep blue curtains cover
Eb Ebm Bb Bb
Sequins in the eyes, that's a fine time to dine
Bdim Bdim
Divine hair circling feeding the cards to the midwives
F C F C
Love those alien days, the nonstop alien days
F C F F (drums and bass come in)
Oh, the alien days
==PART A'==

Must have scared the ship in joining the team for a ride.

Decades in the drain, monograms on the brain
Bdim Bdim
Decide what's working and what's moved on to the

Oh, the alien days
