E chordE C chordC
Oh comely
D chordD E chordE
I will be with you when you lose your breath
C chordC D chordD E chordE
Chasing the only meaningful memory you thought you had left
C chordC
With some pretty bright and bubbly terrible scene
D chordD E chordE
That was doing her thing on your chest
C chordC
But oh comely
G chordG
It isn't as pretty as you'd like to guess

In your memory you're drunk on your awe to me
C chordC E chordE
It doesn't mean anything at all

E chordE C chordC
Oh comely
D chordD E chordE
All of your friends are letting you blow
C chordC
Bristling and ugly
D chordD E chordE
Bursting with fruits falling out from the holes
C chordC
Of some pretty bright and bubbly friend
D chordD E chordE
You could need to say comforting things in your ear
C chordC
But oh comely
G chordG
There isn't such one friend that you could find here

Standing next to me

Only my enemy
C chordC
I'll crush him with everything I own
E chordE
say what you want to say
G chordG
and hang for your hollow ways moving your mouth
E chordE C chordC D chordD G chordG D chordD G chordG D chordD G chordG D chordD E chordE
to pull out all your miracles aimed for me


E chordE
Your father made fetuses

With flesh licking ladies
C chordC
While you and your mother
D chordD
Were asleep in the trailer park
E chordE
Thunderous sparks from the dark of the stadiums
C chordC
The music and medicine you needed for comforting
D chordD E chordE
So make all your fat fleshy fingers to moving
C chordC
And pluck all your silly strings
D chordD
And bend all your notes for me
E chordE
Soft silly music is meaningful magical
C chordC
The movements were beautiful
D chordD
All in your ovaries
E chordE
All of them milking with green fleshy flowers
C chordC D chordD
While powerful pistons were sugary sweet machines
E chordE
Smelling of semen all under the garden
C chordC D chordD
Was all you were needing when you still believed in me
E chordE
Say what you wanna say and hang for your hollow ways
G chordG E chordE C chordC D chordD G chordG D chordD G chordG D chordD G chordG D chordD E chordE
Moving your mouth to pull out all your miracles aimed for me

E chordE C chordC
Da da da da da da da
E chordE C chordC
Da da da da da da da
E chordE C chordC
Da da da da da da da

E chordE
I know they buried her body with others
C chordC D chordD
Her sister and mother and 500 families
E chordE
And will she remember me 50 years later
C chordC D chordD
I wished I could save her in some sort of time machine
E chordE
Know all your enemies
C chordC
We know who are enemies are
E chordE
Know all your enemies
C chordC
We know who are enemies are


Am chordAm
La la la la la la la la la la la
E chordE
La la la la la la
Am chordAm
La la la la la la la la la la la
E chordE
La la la la la la
Am chordAm
La la la la la la la la dee dee dee
E chordE
Dee dee dee dee dee dee


Am chordAm
Goldaline my dear

We will fold and freeze together
E chordE
Far away from here

There is sun and spring and green forever
Am chordAm
But now we move to feel

For ourselves inside some stranger's stomach
E chordE
Place your body here
Am chordAm E chordE
Let your skin begin to blend itself with mine

Am chordAm
dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee la da da
E chordE
da da da da da da
Am chordAm
da da da da da da da da da la da da
E chordE Am chordAm
da da da da da da da da da
