These are just the raw chords for this song. It's up to you to figure out
the strumming pattern and shapes/positions of the chords that are used.
Intro
G
wait-wait-wait-
bm em
before you go i want you to know
am D G
all that you were and the sound that you made when you moved
bm em
before you leave i need you to see
am D am
all that you mean, you would hardly believe it
(bass build-up on G)
Verse 1
G em
sitting in the kitchen wondering how it is i'll tell you this
am C
when the phone rings, so i start right in then:
G em
we are shells or instruments, inside there's sound that speaks to us
am D
if you listen, and i've been listening
Chorus 1
G em
and i'm sorry to reduce you to this useless imagistic bullshit
F C
but maybe that's all i've got, maybe that's all i've got
G em
sorry to confuse you with some foolish thing that misses truth
F C
but maybe that's all we are, around a brightly dying star
Verse 2
G em
these spiralled shells so sexual, could out-reveal the texts
am C
we dwell upon, or maybe not, but certainly
G em
a sound that's free can open me and easily
am D
just rip my heart out, and start me shouting:
Interlude 1 (played on piano)
G c#m D d#m em em7 C cm
this is how i feel... (repeat)
Chorus 2
G em
i'm sorry to reduce you to this useless imagistic bullshit
F C
but maybe that's all i've got, maybe that's all i've got
G em
sorry to abuse you with this ruthlessly sadistic music
F C
but maybe that's all i want (i'm just a really pretentious guy)
Interlude 2
G
but wait! wait! wait! wait! wait! wait!
bm em
before you go, i want you to know
am D G
all that you were, and the sound that you made when you moved
bm em
before you leave, i need you to see
am D (start making it funky!)
all that you mean, you would hardly believe it
am D
you would hardly believe it, you would hardly believe it...
am D
if i could just speak it, you would hardly believe it...
D
you would hardly believe
Outro (piano again)
G c#m D d#m em em7 C cm
but this is how i feel...
