Return To The Violence Of The Ocean Floor keyboard

Return To The Violence Of The Ocean Floor

• A

This is how I play the song.
I'm an amateur, so suggestions are appreciated!
For the intro chord progression play the second C higher up. 
For example, I play the intro:

A-5th fret bar  
C -3rd fret bar
E -open
Dm-5th fret bar
C -8th fret bar
A-5th fret bar

Intro:
A
C E Dm C A x4

C     E     Dm    C     A
One, two, three, four, five.
C     E     Dm     C    A
One, two, three, four, five.

             C  E Dm C A
I've got a spirit
A
Made out of sand
C             E                 Dm    C A
Sometimes it slips through my fingers
A
Back onto the beach

G Am C Dm F x2

                  G  Am C Dm F
Said I've got a spirit
F
Made out of sand
G             Am                C    Dm F
Sometimes it slips through my fingers
F                   G
Back onto the beach
    Am           C  Dm F  
In some kind of lust
F                 G
Some kind of lust
Am            C  Dm F
Some kind of lust
       G            Am   C        Dm     F
To return to the violence of the ocean floor
       G            Am   C        Dm     F
To return to the violence of the ocean floor

G Am C Dm F x4
Dm F x2

             G
So I kneel down
      Am      C  Dm F
And gather it up
F
Grain by grain
G          Am      C   Dm F
I have to keep it safe
F
I have some things to say:
             G                 Am          C                  Dm
Like, you should have been a writer, you should have played guitar,
            F
But those kids keep coming down the fucking hill
      G                 Am          C                  Dm
You should have been a writer, you should have played guitar,
            F
But those kids keep coming down the fucking hill
          G                  Am          C                  Dm
Or, you should have been a writer, you should have played guitar,
Dm          
But your face looks like a statue in the dark
          G            Am            C   Dm
Like a candle that is held up to a mirror
Dm
Or the terrible glimpse of a shark
                    G Am C Dm F
Within your idiot heart

G Am C Dm F x3

Dm                                                  F 
I heard you hate it, just based on your principles now
Dm                                                  F 
I heard you hate it, just based on your principles now
Dm                                                      F 
I heard you hate it all, just based on your principles now

            G  Am C Dm 
So I kneel down
F
Down into your burning sand, singing
G                 Am     C               Dm
One, we got the spirit, two, we got the music
F
Three, we got the past and four, we got the future
     G            Am           C  Dm F
And five, we got some kind of lust
F                 G
Some kind of lust
Am            C  Dm F
Some kind of lust
       G            Am   C        Dm     F
To return to the violence of the ocean floor
       G            Am   C        Dm     F
To return to the violence of the ocean floor
       G            Am   C        Dm     F
To return to the violence of the ocean floor
       G            Am   C        Dm     F
To return to the violence of the ocean floor
