Andrew Bird – Ten-You-Us (Guitar)

C
Tenuous at best was all he had to say

                       Am
when pressed about the rest of it, the world that is

     C
From proto-Sanskrit Minoans to porto-centric Lisboans

      Am
Greek Cypriots and and Hobis-hots who hang around in ports a lot, uh-huh

    C
But here's where things start getting weird

                                                 Am
While chinless men will scratch their beards, uh-huh

C
Tool their minds to sharpened axes

                          Am
Brush up on the Uralic syntaxes

G
Love of hate acts as an axis

G                             F
Love of hate acts as an axis, oh

                           C         Am
First it wanes and then it waxes

C                    Am
Ten you us ness less seven comes to three

C                 Am
Them you us plus eleven

                                G
Thank the heavens for their elasticity

               F                            C        Am
And that's for those who live and die by astronomy

     C
When Coprophagia was writ, know when to stand know when to sit

      Am
Can't stand to stand can't stand to sit and who would want to know this

C                       Am
    Click click click

G                               Em
    Who wants to look upon this

G                               Em
    Who wants to look upon this

   G  Em             G
pra-  -ay       tell

                                Em
    Who wants to look upon this

G                               Em
    Who wants to look upon this

G            Em
pray       tell

C                Am
Tenuousness less seven comes to three

C                 Am
Them you us plus eleven

                    D
Comes just shy of infinity

               Fmaj7                          C
And that's for those who live and die for numerology
