Tuning: Standard
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...
