Note: This is tabbed for one guitar ONLY, and the intro is definitely not perfect,
but it is the closest I could figure out. Hopefully it helps a bit.
Intro:
[D] [D] [Em][Am][G][Am][G]
[G]Styrofoam cup of mud in my good[D] hand,[D]
[G]Disembodied voice of God in the trash can
[D]Eyes in the ashes, feeling for the fu[Em]ture[Em]
[D]Sleeping through the stake-out, researching the rumor.
[G]A mile, a motor, a mattress, a mem[D]ory,[D]
[G]At first you were embarrassed, but how could you not be,
[D]Tangled in teenage mom at the mo[Em]vies[Em],
[D]Your voice ran out out of words,
Em Em, Am, G, Am, G
It was awkward and homey.
[G]Gospel in your belly, the ache a little lower,
[G]Back into the breach, you spoke as it's owner.
[D]Syndicated sermon you sang from the rafters,
[D]Anchors in you pockets, holding down the laughter.
[G]Tearing up your mind, your lust and your ego,
[G]Slingshot a martyr to speed your libido,
[D]Perish grows to jelly, blissful and wasted,
D Em Em, Am, G, Am, G
Your Vishnu eye slips open and pictures them naked
Break:
Gx8, Emx8
You're [C]complicating your [G]worst mixed messes,
You [C]built then burnt a [G]bridge.
And scattered all your [C]crumbs at the cliff,
She [D]wants [D]me, she'll swim for it.
Solo: (There is a lot of bending and interesting distortion here so I can't get
it perfect, but you should be able to work with this)
[G] [G] [G] [G]
[G]Brother, can you spare your [G]arms [G]or your arrows?
[G]Thunder clap's arising, I [G]think [G]that I should
[D]Go home to the basement, back on Jumel street,
[D]1996 and your waiting there to tell me,
[G]"I didn't die, you dreamt it, you dreamt it,
[G]I'm as alive as your best good intentions.
[D]Sorry that I tricked you, you had to focus
D Em Em, Am, G, Am, G
Pull yourself together, clear out the garbage."
Break:
Gx8, Emx8
But for [C]all that effort,
The [G]slow burned struggle,
I [C]forgot where you [G]live.
She swept away the [C]clues from the cliff, your [D]lost now.(x4)
Remembering[Em].[Am]
She swept away the c[C]lues from the cliff, your [D]lost now.
Remembering.
Outro: Same deal as the solo:
[G] [G] [G] [G]
End on: G G
