Darwin Deez

Songs for Imaginative People

Darwin Smith writes, records, produces and arranges using a 4-string electric guitar in his own invented, secret tuning. Five years ago, he left Wesleyan University (and friends MGMT and Boy Crisis) to start a band in New York City, US, where he formed Darwin Deez in 2009. Their current live set features his original songs, harsh electronic noise, and bouts of synchronized dancing. He has been dubbed the Michael Jackson of indie rock.

F                          Dm
I'm in outer space on my side 

Of the bed
F                           Dm
On a floating mattress my eyes 
         
Stare ahead


Bb         C            Bb      C
You don't sleep here anymore


F                        Dm
Hovering alarm clock is my

Satellite
F                          Dm
Under little specks of starlight

On a flight


Bb         C            Bb 
You don't sleep here anymore
           C            Bb 
You don't sleep here anymore


Bb                    F
I don't know where I am
    C
I am so lost
Bb                   F
I'm just drifting around
           C
Since you've been gone
Bb       C               Bb
I'm just wasting time away

I'm just wasting time in space


F Dm F Dm


F                           Dm
See a little asteroid pass by 

Underneath
F                                Dm
There's an empty space on your side

And I can't sleep


Bb                    F 
I don't know where I am

I pull my covers over my head
Bb              Bm
Hope you know I wish I were dead

I can't seem to get out of bed
Bb                  
Going nowhere

Everything is wrong

Bed Space

F
The sky is green
                                         Gm
Its been that way since they dropped the bomb
                F
The clouds are brown
               C
The city's a ghost town
             F
The city is dead
              C
The rivers a bed now
                Gm
The hair on my head came out
                  F
and fell on the ground

                D        Gm
None of the sunlight is safe
             C
Litter is blowing all around the sidewalk


Chorus:

F                C
Say you love me now
                Bb              C 
Maybe you will say you love me now
F                C  F
Say you love me please
   C                        F
Say it now that the sky is green


Verse 2:
            F
The sky is green
                                     Gm
It's been that way since we lost the war
                F
We looted the store
               C
We had to eat something
            F 
People are sick
               C
The water is strychnine
                 Gm                           F
I heard about sixty nine hundred people have died
                D
The shelter is hell
                Gm
it smells like shit
         C                                  C
Nobody knows how long were supposed to stay in it


(Chorus)


F
The sky is green
C
The sky is green
Gm
The sky is green
F
The sky is green

The sky is green

The sky is green
F
The sky is green
C
The sky is green

VERSE 1:

Fling the insulation in the dumpster
We’re expanding our empire of love for her
So tear it all down now, every building here
Most of all the skyscrapers of bitterness and fear

Rip the gypsum out and haul it all away
Level every structure down to the solid orange clay
Spread out the blueprints so we can start
To build a hotel on her heart

CHORUS:
            Dm
Cos I’m not leaving, this is just the place
Fm        C
I’ve been homeless since the dimples on her simple face
                  Dm                                Fm
And I’ve spent my fortune, I’ve torn the town apart
      Cmaj7
To build a hotel on her heart

VERSE 2:

We’ll build it by the beach so she can reach the salty wind
We’ll make it out of poems and the books she writes them in
A forty-story eyesore by the seaside
So she can go swim oh in the ocean whenever she likes

And she likes some other boy now so we’ll have to wait
But when she’s done with him he’ll shake the painted iron gate
And he’ ll say, “Chelsea, baby, did I do you wrong?”
And she’ll say, “no, Darwin was gonna win me all along”

CHORUS:
            Dm
Cos I’m not leaving, this is just the place
Fm        C
I’ve been homeless since the dimples on her simple face
                  Dm                                Fm
And I’ve spent my fortune, I’ve torn the town apart
      Cmaj7
To build a hotel on her heart

BRIDGE:
               Dm
Have you ever seen a wrecking ball as small as her?
            Fm     C
She smashes up my glasses when she passes but it doesn’t hurt
   Dm
I can’t see straight now with this, with this crush
    Fm      G
But I have all of this love to give, and there’s no rush

CHORUS:
            Dm (hold)                      Dm
Cos I’m not leaving, this is just the place
Fm        C (hold)                                C
I’ve been homeless since the dimples on her simple face
C                 Dm                                Fm
And I’ve spent my fortune, torn this town apart
      Cmaj7
To build a hotel on her heart...(2, 3, 4, 1!)

Radar Detector

A                       B            A 
Spiral galaxies would turn in your eyes
                       B        A 
When I came by with a small surprise
                                       B          A
You loved all of my little quarks, so what went wrong?
              B               A
Don't superstring me along, come on


Chorus:
                 E                        
Was there a big bang that I just missed?

The universe is mostly empty space without you  without you

Wave or particle, I can't be both
                       B           A 
So just say which way you like me most
                                 B      A
I can be an experiment in your bedroom lab
                                 B  A
To figure how the light we had went bad

I'll build a collider and smash us to bits

To see what's inside us, to see if we stick

Up In The Clouds

According to the Radar Detector Songfacts Darwin Deez wrote this song about a girl he was in once in love with  who reminded me of a radar detector in the way as, &quot;she constantly kept her eye out for my well-being, like a loving machine.&quot; 

LA RE
Jo et duré a casa si fa mal temps

Jo t’empararé si un cas tens por
SIm MI
Jo te cuidaré si estàs malalta
RE LA
De tot cor, de tot cor

FA#m DO#m
Estic a punt d’anar-me’n
RE LA RE
Mes abans de partir et diré
REm LA
Que et duc dins es pensament

FA#m DO#m
No deix de recordar-te
RE LA RE
I alen els teus alens tot calents
REm SIm MI
De lluny i de prop me tens


Jo et duré...

FA#m DO#m
I a dalt de s’escenari
RE LA RE
Quan estic concentrat cantant
REm MI
Jo sempre te tenc present

FA#m DO#m
Perquè m’ets necessari
RE LA
Com s’aire que respir
RE REm SIm MI
Necessit estar amb tu en tot moment


Jo et duré... ( bis )

[Verse 1]
             F 
Baby really hurt me
                Am 
crying in the taxi
                Dm
He dont wanna know me
                         Am                     A#     Dm
says you make the big mistake of dancing in my store 
Gm                  C
   Says it was poison
                 F
So I guess I go home 
          Am                     Dm
into the arms of the girl that I love
                Am 
the only love I havent screwed up
A#                  Dm
   She's so hard to please
             Gm      C  
but shes a forest fire
        F               
I do my best to meet her demands
Am
play it romance
         Dm
we slow dance in the living room
    Am                      A#
but all that a stranger would see
        Dm           Gm               C     
is one girl swaying alone stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability
          Dm         Gm    C
You're a little much for me"
               F              Am 
So they pull back make other plans
       Dm 
I understand
     Am     A# 
I'm a liability
        Dm         Gm    
Get you wild, make you leave
       C            Dm            F    A#       
I'm a little much for eh oh-na-na-na everyone

[Verse 2]
            F 
The truth is, I am toy
                Dm
that people enjoy
                Am               A#
till all of the tricks dont work anymore
Dm              Gm       C
And then they are bored of me
             
                    F
I know that its exciting
                     Am
running through the night but
              Dm                Am
every perfect summer's eating me alive
            A#    Dm
unitl youre gone
Gm          C
Better on my own

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability
          Dm         Gm    C
You're a little much for me"
               F              Am 
So they pull back make other plans
       Dm 
I understand
     Am     A# 
I'm a liability
        Dm         Gm    
Get you wild, make you leave
       C            Dm            F    A#       
I'm a little much for eh oh-na-na-na everyone

[Outro]
             Dm           F           A#
They're gonna watch me disappear into the sun
                 Dm        F           A#
You're all gonna watch me disappear into the sun

Liability

A                                     E 
Roll into your town and I'm walking around
                                                Fm                        
Got some extra time think I'll throw some money down
                                                     D
And you follow me around, and you're asking for the time

Your asking what I found 
                         A
think I'm gonna rob you blind

maybe it's the tattoo on my arm
        E
that I drew while I was bored waiting tables in new york
Fm                                            D
 a  heart and two flowers intertwined with a vine

My heart stops it isn’t… going could you revive me
I think I’m lost without knowing so come and find me


PRE-CHORUS 2:  [same chords as PRE-CHORUS1]
‘Cause in the same space we’re disconnected and in your own mind you’re not attracted
But in your own life over reacted and in your own time

You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A

But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D

Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A
I don't, I know you know


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

[Bridge]
G                          D
Somehow we end up on the same side
Bm                          A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright
G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine

Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)
Bm                            A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright

Crash Years

Intro  D     Bm7   G     A     x2


Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame


Chorus 
          D                        D7
Now, I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
        Bm7                 F#              G                    A
And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
        Bm7 A   G                              Gm
Now I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

Verse 2
          D                           Bm7
Wise man next to me did say 'bout the one that got away
        G                    A
Son, I missed my chance 
           D                            Bm7
Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase
     G               A
Ask her to dance, go on, son
           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith


Chorus
          D                        D7
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
           Bm7                   F#                G                    A
When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
         Bm7 A   G                               Gm
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith
 
          D                        D7
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7

Don't be fallin', fallin' in, fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

As She's Walking Away

Am                              E
There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
