Tom : E
E A * E B A
When you were young, you were the king of carrot flowers
E A * E B A
And how you built a tower tumbling through the trees
B A E
In holy rattlesnakes that fell all around your feet
A E B A

[Verse 2]
E A * E B A
And your mom would stick a fork right into daddy's shoulder
E A * E B A
And dad would throw the garbage all across the floor
B A E
As we would lay and learn what each other's bodies were for
A E B A

[Verse 3]
E A * E B A
And this is the room one afternoon I knew I could love you
E A * E B A
And from above you how I sank into your soul
B A E
Into that secret place where no one dares to go
A E B A

[Verse 4]
E A * E B A
And your mom would drink until she was no longer speaking
E A * E B A
And dad would dream of all the different ways to die
B A
Each one a little more than he could dare to
E A * E B A
try
E A* E B A (x3)

[Intro]
E A* E B* (x2)

[Verse 1]
E
Up and over we go
E
through the wave and undertow
E B
I will float until I learn how to swim
E
Inside my mother in a garbage bin
B
Until I find myself again
B
Again, oh-oh-oh-oh
E A* E B* (x2)

[Verse 2]
E
Up and over we go
E
Mouths open wide and spitting still
E B
I will spit until I learn how to speak
E
Up through the doorway as the sideboards creak
B
With them never proclaiming me
B
Me, oh
E A* E B* (x2)

[Verse 3]
E
Up and over we go
E
The weight it sits on down and I don't know
E B
I will shout until they know what I mean
E
I mean the marriage of a dead dog sing
B
And a synthetic flying machine
B
Machine,
E A* E B* (x2)
oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh
