Andrew Bird – I Felt A Funeral In My Brain (Guitar)

F                C
I felt a funeral in my brain

F                      C
And mourners to and fro

F                              C
Treading - treading - 'til it seemed

D7                         F
That sense was breaking through

F                       C
And when we all were seated

F                     C
A service, like a drum

F                              C
beating - beating - 'til I thought

    D7                F
My mind was going numb

F/F#
My mind was growing

A7                        A7
And then I heard them lift a box

Dm                   G
And creak across my soul

            C
With those same boots of lead, again

      A7       Dm            G
Then space - space began to toll

F                               C
As all the heavens were a bell

F                               C
And Being but an ear

F                                       C
And I, and silence, some strange race

D7                      F
Wrecked, solitary, here

F                               C
And then a plank in reason broke

F                               C
And I dropped down, and down

F                               C
And hit a world at every plunge

D7                              F
And finished knowing, then

F/F#
And finished knowing

A7                        A7
And then I heard them lift a box

Dm                   G
And creak across my soul

            C
With those same boots of lead, again

      A7       Dm            G
Then space - space began to toll

F                C
I felt a funeral in my brain

F                      C
And mourners to and fro

F                              C
Treading - treading - 'til it seemed

D7                         F
That sense was breaking through
