Chords

I took these chords from this thread: http://www.amandapalmer.net/vanilla/ discussion/757/figure-out-the-chords-together-thread/p13 and transposed them to a capo, as well as lining them up with the lyrics. Enjoy! F G E F (x2)
F                     G
They've been circling, they've been circling

Em                     F
Since the day they were born

F               G    
It's disturbing how they're circling

Em                  F
Fifty feet from the pond

F            G
Pretty often, pretty often

Em               F
I don't want to be told

F              G
It's a problem, it's a problem

Em             F
It's a problem, I know

F                 G
I won't keep what I can't catch

   Em               F
In my bare hands without a net

F                   G
It's hard enough to walk on grass

   Em               F
So conscious of the consequences
F G Em F (x2)
F                    G
They've been jerking, they've been jerking

Em               F
In a pail by the dock

F                        G                     Em
I know that oxygen might make them blossom and die

                  F
But I'm not gonna talk

F                  G
Feed them details, feed them e-mails

Em                 F
They'll eventually grow

F                     G
But it's not working, it's not working

Em              F
Not as far as I know

F                  G
And killing things is not so hard

     Em                 F 
It's hurting that's the hardest part

    F               G
And when the wizard gets to me

    Em           F
I'm asking for a smaller heart
F G Em F (x4)
F                 G
When I got you, I thought that I got you

Em                F
Now I'll ruin it all

F                 G
Feeling helpless, acting selfish

Em               F
Being human and all

F                    G
And they're jumping, and they're jumping

Em                    F
But they'll never get out

F                  G
Just keep touring, keep on ignoring

Em               F
Be a good little trout

    F                 G
The butcher stops and winds his watch

    Em                    F
And lays their lives down on the block

   F             G  
He raises up his hatchet and the

Em                 F
Big hand strikes a compromise

F           G          D
Wait, we'll trade you, wait

F            G        D
Please, just one more day

F          G       D 
Then we'll go with no complaining

F               D
No complaining, no complaining

F              G  Em F
Stop killing
F G Em F
F                 G
Killing things is not so hard

     Em                 F 
It's hurting that's the hardest part

F               G
When the wizard gets to me

    Em           F
I'm asking for a smaller heart

    F              G
And if he tells me no

             Em             F
I'll hold my breath until I hit the floor

F            G
Eventually I know I'm doomed

   Em            F
To get what I am asking for
(The rhythm is a bit weird in the end. Play F and G for a normal length measure, then the C G F sequence should be faster. Listen to the song and you'll be able to figure it out.) F G C G F (x2)
F               G
Now my heart is exactly the size

     C         G          F
Of a six sided die cut in half

        C    G           F
Made of ruby red stained glass

      F                        G                          
Can I knock you unconscious as long as I promise

     C            G             F
I'll love you and I'll make you laugh

       F        G 
And my heart is exactly the size

     C         G          F
Of a six sided die cut in half

        C    G           F
Made of ruby red stained glass

      F                        G
Can I knock you unconscious as long as I promise

     C            G             F
I'll love you and I'll make you laugh
