Neutral Milk Hotel – The King Of Carrot Flowers Part 1 (Ukulele)

F
  When you were young

             C              Bb
You were the king of carrot flowers

F                           C                    Bb
  And how you built a tower tumbling through the trees

C                           Bb                   F
  In holy rattlesnakes that fell all around your feet

F                                       C            Bb
  And your mom would stick a fork right into daddy's shoulder

F                                      C              Bb
  And your dad would throw the garbage all across the floor

C                                Bb                       F
  As we would lay and learn what each other's bodies were for

F
  And this is the room

         C                   Bb
One afternoon I knew I could love you

F                          C              Bb
  And from above you how I sank into your soul

C                              Bb              F
  Into that secret place where no one dares to go

F                                      C           Bb
  And your mom would drink until she was no longer speaking

F                                C                 Bb
  And dad would dream of all the different ways to die

C                             Bb               F
  Each one a little more than he could dare to try
