Chords

Album: In the Attic of the Universe (2007) There already exists a tab for this song, but it's got some chords wrong and some missing, so I thought I'd improve it a bit. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Am Bm Em G x2
             Am
It's been a long time coming

         Bm
It's not up for debate

                 Em
You've been a hollowed-out apple

                 G
Though you're standing up straight

      Am
It's later than you think

          Bm
And we're not going to wait

          Em
If you continue to tell us

          G
If you continue to tell us

     G G/F# Em D     C        G         D
The uuuuuuuuuuuuu-niverse is going to catch you

     G G/F# Em D     C        G         D
The uuuuuuuuuuuuu-niverse is going to catch you
|G G/F# |Em D |C |G |D | x2 Am Bm Em G x2
              Am
Well, it was fine until you fell off

        Bm
Of the face of the Earth

                  Em
Because we would call you at home

             G
And no one picked up the phone

              Am
But we were worried that you'd fallen

        Bm
In the river, or worse

              Em
But then you sent us back a letter

        G
It said in capital letters

     G G/F# Em D     C         G        D
The uuuuuuuuuuuuu-niverse is going to catch you

     G G/F# Em D     C         G        D
The uuuuuuuuuuuuu-niverse is going to catch you
|G G/F# |Em D |C |G |D | x2
 G          G/F#          Em             D
Come back inside to this house, to your home

          C     G         C  G       D
Made of steel-structured styrofoam, nobody's out there

       G        G/F#        Em            D
But someone is singing you back to your birthplace

       C    G      C     G         D
That voice is the same voice you heard on the same night

        G        G/F#             Em       D
That everything glowed, took you into the air

         C    G     C G       D
And the arms of the universe kept you from falling

      G          G/F#          Em                D
But after that happened those arms did not come back

              C    G     C  G     D
So when you leapt up and nobody caught you, your neck broke
