None of them
This song is in standard tuning in the demo, and tuned a half step down when
played live. (pretty accurate, definitely not perfect)
(All the chords in this section are palm muted power chords)
F C
all that music in your mouth
G Am
rivers rushing at your teeth
Bb F
cresting waves through wading valleys
Bb F
flooded language tributaries
Bb F C/G
connect and cover over me
F C
tensing jaw & cork screw eyelids
G Am
as if you couldn't bare to see
Bb F
all that water pouring from you
Bb F
collecting clouds inside the ballroom
Bb F C/G Bb
over people who don't know you
but darling i do

(Return to palm-muted power chords)
F C
you trance yourself back towards the city
G Am
blood not moving to your feet
Bb F
your foot falls tentative and muffled
Bb F
automatic listless shuffle

your sidewalk scatter brain, cry uncle
F C
you paint yourself back in your corner
G Am
and look for her on your t.v.
Bb F
it's friday night and i am hungry
Bb F
for a hand, a mouth, a body

a love i wouldn't have to carry

Bb F
he killed her in waves
Am Dm
but that's not today
(back to palm muting again)
Dm
so you breathe through your mouth
Bb
try to calm yourself down
F
and keep what you found
A
and shout it out loud
(And stop palm muting again)
Dm
she can hover and hurt
Bb
or dissolve to dirt
F A
some prayer in you mouth
G
and she might stay a steam
C
so get to the beams
F A
let you figure her out
G, Dm, Bb, F, Bb, F, Bb, C/G, C7, F
