Elephant

Intro:
Dm   G   C Am   G

Verse1:
        F
Well I held you like a lover
	G			C	    Csus	Am   G
Happy hands, your elbow in the appropriate place
    F				G
And we ignored our others' happy plans
	    		C	       Csus	Am      G
For that delicate look upon your face
        F
Our bodies moved and hardened
	G			   C	    	Csus
Hurting parts of your garden, With no room for a pardon
      Am         C			     F       G
In a place where no one knows what we have done


Chorus:
	Dm    G		              C    Csus  Am   G
Do you come       together ever with him?
	Dm      G		              C     Csus  Am    G
And is he dark    enough, enough to see your light?
	    Dm     		              G
And do you brush your teeth before you kiss?
         C    Csus  Am   G
Do you miss my smell?
	   Dm			      G		 C		Csus   Am  G
and is he bold enough to take you on,    do you feel like you belong?
	Dm                  G	         C         Csus  Am    G
and does he drive you wild,   or just mildly free?
	    F      G
What about me?

Verse2:
          F
Well you held me like a lover 
	G			   C	      Csus	Am   G
Sweaty hands, and my foot in the appropriate place
F			  G
We use cushions to cover happy glands
	    		C	       Csus	Am      G
In the mild issue of our disgrace
     F					 G			
Our minds pressed and guarded While our flesh disregarded
      C		 Csus           Am		F	   	     G	
The lack of space for the light-hearted, in the boom that beats our drum

        F
Well I know I make you cry,
       G
and I know sometimes you wanna die
    C	           Csus  	Am       G
But do you really feel alive without me,
           F
if so, be free
		      G	     C	                Csus	   Am      G
If not, leave him for me, before one of us has accidental babies
	    F      G
For we are in love

-==Chorus==-
	    F      G
What about me?

Accidental Babies

Verse 1

G                                    C                  C/B
  Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone

Am7                    D/A             G                D
  It's left this house empty now, not sure if I belong

Em                                Am7                  
  Yesterday you asked me to write you a pleasant song

B7
  I'll do my best now, but you've been gone for so long


G                               C                  C/B
  The window's open now and the winter settles in

Am7             D/A                G              D
  We'll call it Christmas when the adverts begin
  
Em                             Am7
  I love your depression and I love your double chin
  
B7
  I love 'most everything that you bring to this offering



Chorus

Am               G           Am           G     G6 Gsus4 G
Oh I know that I left you in places of despair

Am               G            Am                     G    G6 Gsus4 G
Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair

   Am               G            Am                G   G6 Gsus4 G
At night I trip without you, and hope I don't wake up

       Am            G               Am                     G 
'Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup



Verse 2

Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone
Our clocks are ticking now so before our time is gone
We could get a house and some boxes on the lawn
We could make babies and accidental songs

I know I've been a liar and I know I've been a fool
I hope we didn't break yet, but I'm glad we broke the rules
My cave is deep now, yet your light is shining through
I cover my eyes, still all I see is you



Chorus

Oh I know that I left you in places of despair
Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair
At night I trip without you, and hope I don't wake up
'Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup

G       G/F#     Em
You can hold her hand  
G6       G/F#        G 
and show her how you cry 
G                   G/F#             Em
Explain to her your weakness so she understands
G6       G/F#          G
And then roll over and die
G       G/F#      Em        
You can brave decisions 
G6         G/F#       G
Before you crumble up inside 
G               G/F#                      Em
Spend your time asking everyone else's permission
G6       G/F#         G  
And then run away and hide


G       G/F#    Em    
You can sit on chimneys 
G6           G/F#         G  
And put some fire up your ass
G          G/F#                       Em
No need to know  what you're doing or waiting for
G6       G/F#      G      
But if anyone should ask?
G           G/F#                  Em                 
Tell them I've been licking coconut skins 
G6        G/F#         G
and we've been hanging out
G          G/F#                  Em
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins 
G6        G/F#     G       
And relieve us our doubt 


Bridge: G       G/F#     Em      G6        G/F#      G
 
Same chord pattern...


You can hold her eggs 
But your basket has a hole 
You can lie between her legs 
And go lookin' for: 
Tell her you're searching for her soul! 

You can wait for ages 
And watch your compost turn to coal 
But time is contagious: 
Everybody's getting old. 

You can sit on chimneys 
And put some fire up your ass! 
No need to know 
What you're doing or looking for: 
But if anyone should ask? 
Tell them I've been cooking coconut skins 
And we've been hanging out! 
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins 
And relieve us our doubt.

Em   C   G   D   C


Em              C           G        D
Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
Em              C          G         D
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
Em                  C       G     D        C     D
Its still a little hard to see     what's goin on


Still a little bit of your ghost your weakness
Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
You slip a little closer each day, yet I can't say what's goin' on.


Chorus:
 G       C            D
Stones taught me to fly
G       C           D
Love taught me to lie  
G      C            D
Life taught me to die
             C                     D                Em
So its not hard to fall when you float like a cannonball

The first time that I saw

Your head around the door

'Cause mine stopped working



Am    C/B      G
I remember it well

There was wet in your hair

I was stood in stare
     Am    C/B    C
And time stopped moving

I want you here tonight

Most of the time

And so it is

We might kiss  we are alone
G        D   
nobody's watching

I might take you home

We might make out when nobody's there

With the words you've borrowed

From the only place you've known

And why do you sing Hallelujah

When there's nothing to give
Well how can we ask for more
We might make love in some sacred place
The look on your face is delicate

Chorus: Strum

So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place you've known
And why do you sing Hallelujah
If it means nothing to you
Why do you sing with me at all?

So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place you've known
And why do you sing Hallelujah
If it means nothing to you
Why do you sing with me at all?

Lonely Soldier go home,
C       F         C
Lonely, but never alone..
Am           F            C
Good eyes, see nothing to shoot
Am                       G      C
Good feet, feel good, givin' up good boots

Ask your father how'd you fall
Ask your father how'd you fall
Like a leaf, sitting on the ground
Good for nothing, except kicking around..

C                 F              C
She died with her hand stretched out
C               F      C
She died with a hungry mouth
C                 F            C
She died with her mind full of doubt
               G6
and thought of weakening..
And so may your river never dry
May your mouth never lie
May you be satisfied to never know why
Sometimes, someone just wants to die...

             C
Well I don't know if I'm wrong
            B/Am
Cause she's only just gone
Am                     G
   Here's to another relationship
(hammers on 2nd fret of D string on the word "bombed")
          F                  (Em)
Bombed by excellent breed of gamete disease
    F                        G
I'm sure when I'm older I'll know what that means
(same as first time)
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could
Here's to the man with his face in the mud
And an overcast play just taken away
From the lover's in love at the centre of stage yeah
F
Loving is fine if you have plenty of time
    G
For walking on stilts at the edge of your mind
F
Loving is good if your dick's made of wood
        G
And the dick left inside only half understood her
Fmaj7
What makes her come and what makes her stay?
G6
  What make the animal run, run away yeah
Fmaj7
What makes him stall, what makes him stand
    G6
And what shakes the elephant now
    (mute)
And what makes a man?
Fmaj7         G6            Am6/9 (?)
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Am6/9 G6   Fmaj7 G6     C
No I don't know you any more
C Cmaj7 Fmaj7
No, no, no, no...
C           Fmaj7
ooh yeah... hey hey...

same as first time, except sub E7 for B/Am

I don't know if I'm wrong
'Cause shes only just gone
Why the *** is this day taking so long
I was a lover of time and once she was mine
I was a lover indeed, I was covered in weed
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could
Well closer to god is the one who's in love
And I walk away cause I can
Too many options may kill a man
Loving is fine if it's not in your mind
But I've ***ed it up now, too many times
Loving is good if it's not understood
Yeah, but I'm the professor
And feel that I should know
What makes her come and what makes her stay?
What make the animal run, run away and
What makes him tick apart from him prick
And the lonelier side of the jealousy stick
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
No I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
No I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Hell I don't know you any more
No, no, no no...

Well I don't know if I'm wrong
'Cause she's only just gone
Here's to another relationship
Bombed by my excellent breed of gamete disease
I finished it off with some French wine and cheese

In a way I lost all I believed in
 Fadd9                 C               G (Pause)           
And I never found myself so low

I made you laugh, I made you cry,
                         F
I made you open up your eyes
     Gsus
Didn't I?

C                          Csus2
I helped you open up your wings,

Your legs and many other things

Didn't I?

Am I the greatest bastard that you know,

The only one who lets you go,
                         Gsus                 
The one you hurt so much you can not bear?

We were good when we were good,
                          F     Gsus 
When we were not misunderstood.

C                                Csus2

Some dreams are better when they end

Just woke in bed, you were in my head

I was underground and in a dream

Pass this place I'm not suppose to be, 

C                         Csus2
And you were there waiting for me
                                      F
And, with a smile, you said It's been awhile

You asked have I had I seen her recently.

Am I the greatest bastard that you know?

When will we learn to let this go?
                           Gsus
We fought so much we've broken all the chance! 

C                   Csus2
Letting go is not the same
                         F    Gsus
As pushing someone else away.

Am             Em      F         Gsus
So please don't let on you don't know me!

Chorus:

You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
F
On the first bus out of town
On the first bus out of town

Let's see your kit for games
All the girls look the same
You are challenging style for running miles
You're running miles in some boy's jumper

Boo to the business world!
You know a girl who's tax free on her back and making
Plenty cash
While you are working for the joy of giving

Chorus:
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
And you hope that she will see
And you hope that she will see

You are in two minds
Tossing a coin to decide whether you should tell your mum
About a dose of thrush you got while licking railings

But you read in a book
That you got free from Boots
There are lotions, there are potions
You can take to hide your shame from all those prying eyes

Lazy Jane, all the time
Painting lines
You sleeping at bus stops
Wondering how you got your name
And what you're going to do about it.

Chorus
