Chords

There is no chord played in the chorus when she sings "brain" but D9 is written because it harmonizes nicely with her singing. [Intro] C F6 C F6 [Verse 1]
C     
[tab]F6
I endure the flight

C                        G+
Of little wings of white-flamed

                   C
Butterflies in my brain
These ideas of mine
G5
Percolate the mind

Eb7
Trickle down the spine

Ab7/Eb    
Swarm the belly, swelling to a blaze
[Pre-Chorus]
G7              Eb
That's when the pain comes in

G7            Ab
Like a second skeleton

C              G+
Trying to fit beneath the skin

C               G
I can't fit the feelins in
[Chorus]
Am                   E7              D9
Every single night's alright with my brain
[Verse 2]
C
What'd I say to her

What'd I say it to her

What does she think of me

G+
That i'm not what I ought to be

C
That i'm what I try not to be

It's got to be somebody elese's fault

Ab7/Eb
I can't get caught
[Pre-Chorus]
G7                                 Eb
If what I am is what I am, cause I does what I does

     G7                          Ab
Then brother, get back, cause my breast's gonna bust open

    C                        G+
The rib is the shell and the heart is the yolk and

  C                       G
I just made a meal for us both to choke on
[Chorus]
Am                     E7            D9
Every single night's a fight with my brain

C                      F6
So i'm gonna try to be still now

C                  G+
Gonna renounce the mill a little while and

C                  G5
If we had a double-king-sized bed

         Eb7                Ab7/Eb
We could move in it and i'd soon forget
[Pre-Chorus]
     G7                             Eb
That what I am is what I am cause I does what I does

    G7                      Ab
And maybe i'd relax, let my breast shot bust open

   C                        G+
My heart's made of parts of all that surround me

   C                          G
And that's why the devil just can't get around me

Am                   E7       Am                     E7
Every single night's alright, every single night's a fight
[Chorus]
Am                         E7            D9
And every single fight's alright with my brain
