VERSE 1 (6/8 TIME):
Cadd9 Em Am7 G
Now it's day, I've been trying to get that taste off my tongue
Cadd9 Em Am7 G
I was dreaming of just you, now our cereal, it is warm.
Cadd9 Em Am7 G
Attractive day in the rubble of the night from before.
Cadd9 Em Am7 G
Now I can't walk in a vacuum! I feel ugly, I feel my pores.
Cadd9 Em Am7 G
It's the trees of this day that I do battle with for the light,
Cadd9 Em Am7 G
Then I start to feel tragic, people greet me, I'm polite.
Cadd9
"What's the day?"
Em
"What's you doin'?"
Am7
"How's your mood?"
G
"How's that song?"
Cadd9 Em Am7 G
Man it passes right by me, it's behind me, now it's gone
Cadd9
And I can't lift you up, mind is tired
Em
Oh it's family beaches that I desire
Am7
A sacred night, we'll watch the fireworks
G
The frightened babies poo
Cadd9
They've got two flashing eyes and they're colored why
Em Am7 G
They make me feel that I'm only all I see sometimes!
MAIN PROGRESSION x3
Third time, land on the G and change to 4/4 time.
BRIDGE (4/4 TIME)
G, Bm7, D6 (quietly)
G
I've been eatin' with a good friend who said
"A genie made me out of the earth's skin"
Bm7
But in spite of her she is my birth kin
D6
She spits me out in her surly blood rivers
G
All the people life lurkin'
In dominions of a hot Turk dish
Bm7
If the elephants be reaching for our purses
D6
Then meet me after the world with the shivers
REPEAT 3 TIMES, THEN:
VERSE (4/4 TIME)
Cadd9
"What's the day?"
Em
"What's you doin'?"
Am7
"How's your food?"
G
"How's that song?"
Cadd9 Em Am7 G
Man it passes right by me, it's behind me, now it's gone
Cadd9
And I can't lift you up cause mind is tired
Em
It's family beaches that I desire
Am7
A sacred night, we'll watch the fireworks
G
They frightened the babies and you know
Cadd9
THEY'VE GOT TWO flashing eyes and if they're colored why
Em Am7 G
They make me feel that you're only what I see sometimes!
There you go.
I understand if you want to substitute the D6 for a normal D, I just like it is all.
