NAILS IN MY FEET - crowded house
Capo 3rd fret
Am
My life is a house,
Fm6/B
you crawl through the window
E
Slip across the floor
Am
and into the reception room
Am
You enter the place
Fm6/B
of endless per- suasion
E
Like a knock on the door
Am
when there's ten or more things to do
Chorus
C F - Em
Who is that calling
G C F - Em
Are you my Com- panion?
G C
Run to the water
F E
on a burning beach,
F E7
and it brings me re- lief
Am
Pass through the walls
Fm6/B
to find my in tentions
E
Circle 'round
Am
in a strange, hypnotic state
Am
I look into space
Fm6/B
there is no con- nection
E
A million points of light
Am
and a conversation I can't face
Chorus
C F - Em
Cast me off one day
G C F - Em
to lose my Inhi- bitions
G C F E
Sit like a lap dog on a matron's knee
F E F - E
Wear the nails of your feet
Solo

Am
I woke up the house,
Fm6/B
stumbled in sideways
E
The lights went on
Am
and everybody screamed sur- prise
Am
The savage review,
Fm6/B
it left me gasping
E
But it warms my heart
Am
to see that you can do it too
Chorus
C F - Em
Total sur- render,
G C F - Em
your touch is so tender
G C
Your skin is like water
F G G7
on a burning beach
C F - Em
And it brings me re- lief,
G C F - Em
and it brings me re- lief,
G C F - Em - G
and it brings me re- lief,
C - F - Em - G - C - F - Em - G - C - F
