King of Carrot Flowers Pt. 1 (with thanks to cosmicsoul07)
, , , , x2
When you were young
You were the king of carrot flowers
And how you built a tower tumbling through the trees
In holy rattlesnakes that fell all around your feet
And your mom would stick a fork right into daddy's shoulder
And dad would throw the garbage all across the floor
As we would lay and learn what each other's bodies were for
, , , ,
And this is the room
One afternoon I knew I could love you
And from above you how I sank into your soul
Into that secret place where no one dares to go
, , , ,
And your mom would drink until she was no longer speaking
And dad would dream of all the different ways to die
Each one a little more than he could dare to try

King of Carrot Flowers Pt. 2 & 3
I love you Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ I love you
Yes I do
I love you Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ I love you
Yes I do
And on the lazy days
The dogs dissolve and drain away
The world it goes
And all awaits
The day we are awaiting
x4
Up and over we go through the wave and undertow
I will float until I learn how to swim inside my mother
x2
in a garbage bin until I find myself again again
up and over we go mouths open wide and spitting still
and I will spit until I learn how to speak up thru the
doorway as the sideboards creek with them ever
x2
proclaiming me me ohhhhhhhhhhhh
up and over we go the weight it sits on down and I don't know
I will shout until they know what I mean I mean the
marriage of a dead dog sing and a synthetic flying
machine machine ohhhhhhhhhhhh ohhhhhhhhhhhh
x 4 (somewhere in the oh parts, im not really sure)
ohhhhhhhhhhhh ohhhhhhhhhhhh
(okay)

In the Aeroplane Over the Sea (thanks to Ben Hargrave)
What a beautiful face
i have found in this place
that is circling all around the sun.
What a beautiful dream
that could flash on the screen
in a blink of an eye and be gone from me
soft and sweet
let me hold it close and keep it here with me
and one day we will die
and our ashes will fly from the aeroplane over the sea
but for now we are young
let us lay in the sun
and count every beautiful thing we can see
Love to be
in the arms of all i'm keepin here with me
what a curious life we have found here tonight
there is music that sounds from the street
there are lights in the cloud
Anne's ghost all around
hear her voice as it's rolling and ringing through me
soft and sweet
How the notes all bend and reach above the trees
now how i remember you
how i would push my fingers through
your mouth to make those muscles move
that make your voice so smooth and sweet
And now we keep where we don't know
All secrets sleep in winter clothes
with one you loved so long ago
now he don't even know his name
What a beautiful face
i have found in this place
that is circling all round the sun
and when we meet on a cloud
I'll be laughing out loud
I'll be laughing with everyone i see
Can't believe
<-end on
how strange it is to be anything at all
Two Headed Boy
Two headed boy
All floating in glass
The sun it has passed
Now it's blacker than black
I can hear as you tap on your jar
I am listening to hear where you are
I am listening to hear where you are
Two headed boy
Put on sunday shoes
And dance round the room to accordion keys
With the needle that sings in your heart
Catching signals that sound in the dark
Catching signals that sound in the dark
We will take off our clothes
And they'll be placing fingers through the notches in your spine
And when all is breaking , everything that you could keep inside
now you're eyes aint moving now, they just lay there in their cloud
Two headed boy
With pulleys and weights
Creating a radio played just for two
In the parlor with a moon across her face
And through the music he sweetly displays
Silver speakers that sparkle all day
Made for his lover who's floating and choking with her hands across her face
And in the dark we will take off our clothes
And they'll be placing fingers through the notches in your spine
And when all is breaking, everything that you could keep inside
now you're eyes ain't moving now, they just lay there in their clouououououd
Two headed boy
There's no reason to grieve
The world that you need is wrapped in gold silver sleeves
Left beneath Christmas trees in the snow
And I will take you and leave you alone
Watching spirals of white softly flow
Over your eyelids and all you did
Will wait until the point when you let go
Dee dee dee dee de -> multiple times
The Fool-- im not so sure on this one but if playin through the whole album you
can interlude with these chords-- i think theyre right
i think its something like:
altering between-- x2 then followed by a quick
before going back to (multiple times)
then when it gets higher, im not sure, but i think it then just alternates
between (also multiple times)
then it goes right back into
yeah so i use these chords when im playing along with the song on the album and it
works out pretty good but if you have any suggestions please share
Holland, 1945 (thanks to americanpig11)
x2
The only girl I've ever loved
Was born with roses in her eyes
But then they buried her alive
One evening nineteen-forty-five
With just her sister at her side
And only weeks before the guns
All came and rained on everyone
Now she's a little boy in Spain
Playing pianos filled with flames
On empty rings around the sun
All sing to say my dream has come
But now we must pick up every piece
Of the life we used to love
Just to keep ourselves
At least enough to carry on
And now we ride the circus wheel
With your dark brother wrapped in white
Says it was good to be alive
But now he rides a comet's flame
And won't be coming back again
The Earth looks better from a star
That's right above from where you are
He didn't mean to make you cry
With sparks that ring and bullets fly
On empty rings around your heart
The world just screams and falls apart
But now we must pick up every piece
Of the life we used to love
Just to keep ourselves
At least enough to carry on
And here's where your mother sleeps
And here is the room where your brothers were born
Indentions in the sheets
Where their bodies once moved but don't move anymore
And it's so sad to see the world agree
That they'd rather see their faces filled with flies
All when I'd want to keep white roses in their eyes
(ps- instead of tabbing it out to accommodate the horn part that fills the
end, i suggest just moving in to communist daughter, which starts on )
Communist Daughter (thanks to patjack)
x2
Sweet communist
The communist daughter
Standing on the sea-weed water
Semen stains the mountain tops
semen stains the mountain tops
With cocoa leaves along the border
Sweetness sings from every corner
Cars careening from the clouds
The bridges burst and twist around
And wanting something warm and moving
Bends towards herself the soothing
Proves that she must still exist
She moves herself about her fist
Sweet communist
The communist daughter
Standing on the sea-weed water
Semen stains the mountain tops
x2 <- end on
semen stains the mountain tops
Oh Comely (thanks to americanpig11 again)
Oh comely
I will be with you when you lose your breath
Chasing the only meaningful memory you thought you had left
With some pretty bright and bubbly terrible scene
That was doing her thing on your chest
But oh comely
It isn't as pretty as you'd like to guess
In your memory you're drunk on your awe to me
It doesn't mean anything at all
Oh comely
All of your friends are letting you blow
Bristling and ugly
Bursting with fruits falling out from the holes
Of some pretty bright and bubbly friend
You could need to say comforting things in your ear
But oh comely
There isn't such one friend that you could find here
Standing next to me
He's only my enemy
I'll crush him with everything I own
say what you want to say
Hang for your hollow ways.
Moving your mouth to pull out
All your miracles aimed for meeeeee.
Your father made fetuses
With flesh licking ladies
While you and your mother
Were asleep in the trailer park
Thunderous sparks from the dark of the stadiums
The music and medicine you needed for comforting
So make all your fat fleshy fingers to moving
And pluck all your silly strings
And bend all your notes for me
Soft silly music is meaningful magical
The movements were beautiful
All in your ovaries
All of them milking with green fleshy flowers
While powerful pistons were sugary sweet machines
Smelling of semen all under the garden
Was all you were needing when you still believed in me
say what you want to say
Hang for your hollow ways.
Moving your mouth to pull out
All your miracles aimed for meeeeee.
(Da da da part)
I know they buried her body with others
Her sister and mother and 500 families
And will she remember me 50 years later
I wished I could save her in some sort of time machine
Know all your enemies
We know who are enemies are
Know all your enemies
We know who are enemies are
(x3)
Goldaline my dear
We will fold and freeze together
Far away from here
There is sun and spring and green forever
But now we move to feel
For ourselves inside some stranger's stomach
Place your body here
Let your skin begin to blend itself with mine
de de de de de la da da da (x2) end on
Ghost (thanks to indiglopulse)
Ghost, ghost I know you live within me
Feel as you fly
In thunderclouds above the city
Into one that I
Loved with all that was left within me
Until we tore in two
Now wings and rings and there's so many
Waiting here for you
And she was born in a bottle rocket, 1929
With wings that ring around a socket
Right between her spine
All drenched in milk and holy water
Pouring from the sky
I know that she will live for ever
She won't ever die
She goes and now she knows she'll never be afraid
To watch the morning paper blow
Into a hole where no one can escape
Dee, de de de de...
Bridge:
And one day in New York City baby
A girl fell from the sky
From the top of a burning apartment building
Fourteen stories high
And when her spirit left her body
How it split the sun
I know that she will live for ever
All goes on and on and on and
She goes and now she knows she'll never be afraid
To watch the morning paper blow
Into a hole where no one can escape
Dee, de de de de...
End:
Untitled-- this one is pretty pointless when just playing on guitar, but if
playing along with the album i think these are the exact chords to use-- also play
them as the guitar sounding part in the background not as the whiny horn like part
playing the main part-- if done right it sounds very good!
(alternate between these for a while)
then alternating (this comes in when the horn part sounds different, i
believe after the second pause)
then back to and A before the extended strumming right at the end
i think thats it-- sounds good to me!
Two Headed Boy Pt. 2 (thanks to Stormx)
Daddy please hear this song that I sing
In your heart there's a spark that just screams
For a lover to bring a child to your chest
That could lay as you sleep and love all you have left
Like your boy used to be, long ago wrapped in sheets
Warm and wet
Blister please with those wings in your spine
Love to be with a brother of mine
How he'd love to find your tongue in his teeth
In a struggle to find secret songs that you keep
Wrapped in boxes so tight sounding only at night
As you sleep
In my dreams you're alive and you're crying
As your mouth moves in mine soft and sweet
Rings of flowers around your eyes and I'll love you
For the rest of your life...
Brother see we are one in the same
And you left with your head filled with flames
And you watched as your brains fell out through your teeth
Push the pieces in place, make your smile sweet to see
Don't you take this away, I'm still wanting my face
On your cheek
And when we break we'll wait for our miracle
God is a place where some holy spectacle
lies. When we break we'll wait for our miracle
God is a place you will wait for the rest of your
life.
Two headed boy
She is all you could need
She will feed you tomatoes
And radio wires
And retire to sheets
Safe and clean
But don't hate her
When she gets up to leave
