Chords

off their wonderful LP Strawberry Jam Tabbed by: Eric Lyrics taken from lyricalcollective (http://lyricalcollective.wikispaces.com) (perhaps slightly flat, less than half step) I palm mute all chords, strumming once per beat, but play however you think sounds good. [Intro] E up an octave and bend or slide up and down as the keyboard until the bass and drums come in, then stay on regular E [Verse 1]
C                           F          C
A Peacebone got found in the dinosaur wing

C                                       F                  C
Well I've been jumpin in all over, but my views are slowly shrinking

C                        F            C
I was a jugular vein in a juggler’s girl

C                                  F         C
I was supposedly leaking the most interesting colors

G                C
While half of my fingers

F                C
are dipped in the sand

G                  C                     F
You're progress in letters but you're used to cooking broccoli

G                     C         F        C
The other side of takeout is mildew on rice
[Chorus]
F                         C              G    C
And an obsession with the past is like a dead fly

F                         C          G    C
Just a few things are related to the "old times"

F                        C           G     C
Then we did believe in magic and we  did   die

F                                  C                G    C
It's not my words that you should follow, it's your insides

               G    C
you're just an inside

              G   C
adjust your  in  sides

               G    C
You're just an inside
[Verse 2]
          C                            F         C
I bet the monster was a-happy when we made him a maze

C                                                F           C
Cause he don’t understand intentions a-he just looks at your face

             C                     F           C
And then the bubbles exploded and tickled the bath

            C                               F                C
And all the birds were very curious all the fish were at the surface

     G          C           F             C
Well half of me waiting for myself to get calm

         G             C       
I'm like a pelican at red tide; 

       F                C
I'm a corpse, I'm not a fisherman

G                   C                F          C
A blow out does not mean I will have a good night
[Chorus]
F                         C              G    C
Cause an obsession with the past is like a dead fly

F                         C          G    C
Just a few things are related to the "old times"

F                        C           G     C
Then we did believe in magic and we  did   die

F                                  C                G    C
It's not my words that you should follow, it's your insides

               G    C
you're just an inside

              G   C
adjust your  in  sides

               G    C
You're just an inside

  C                     F        C
I start in a hose and I end in a yard

C                                   F                        C
When I feel like I'm stealing I can keep myself from hearing God

         C                                 F          C
Only the taste of your cooking can make me bow on the ground

           C                                            F                       C
It was the clouds that carved the mountains, It was the mountains that made the kids scream

            G            C             F         C
Oh well she bore all her parts but she never was found.

                G                   C
You think I'll carve a path through New York 

          F                   C
And be an artist, but are you anything

         G                  C     F       C
Then you find out you can't ask a baby to cry
[Chorus]
F                         C              G    C
And an obsession with the past is like a dead fly

It's not my words that you should follow, it's your insides
