HELICOPTER - Deerhunter
Tabbed by: Modest Meow 3/17/14

ABOUT: I love this song and was surprised to not find an in depth tab. It doesn't really 
have a chorus, rather 2 verses, I laid it out lyrically.
=========================================================================================
Lyrics:
Verse 1:
Take my hand and pray with me
My final days in company
The devil now has come for me
And helicopters circling the scene

Verse 2:
And I pray for rest
Could you pray for us?
We know he loves you the best
We know he loves you the best

Verse 1:
The light's inside my cave
I'm tired of my pains

Verse 2:
All, these drugs they play
On me in these terrible ways
They don't pay like they used to pay
I used to make it day to day

Verse 2:
No one cares for me
I keep no company
I have memories
And now they are through with me

Verse 2:
Now they are through with me
Now they are through with me
Now they are through with me
Now they are through with me
Now they are through with me
Now they are through with me
Now they are through with me
Now they are through with me
