Chemical Switches Andrew Bird
[Intro]
G (pluck the open low E string then Hammer on into a Barre G to sound like the recording)
[Wbistling Bit]
[Am] [G] [F]
[G] [Dm] [Em]
[Am] [G] [F]
[G] [F] [C]
[Verse]
[Am]I keep hearing a [G]vicious rumo[F]r
[G]From the back rooms, to the[Dm] alleys, to the avenue[Em]s
[Am]That you lost your[G] sense of humo[F]r
[G]And the first place you[F] look is the so[C]les of your shoes
And I[Am] watch these i[G]ce fields me[F]lt into the sea
Wa[G]rming you're o[Dm]ceans to cen[Em]turies
Will your [Am]saline wat[G]ers bri[F]ng you back to me?
Oh the we[G]ight is br[F]inging me t[C]o my knees
[Cborus]
[Dm]Chemical swi[C]tches th[G]rown in the d[F]ark
All it t[G]akes is a [Dm]spark to be[C]gin
And [Dm]can you tell w[C]hich is a o[G]ne with a m[F]ark?
That Bl[G]eeds through the cl[Dm]othes to the s[C]kin
[Wbistling Interlude]
[Am] [G] [F]
[G] [Dm] [Em]
[Am] [G] [F]
[G] [F] [C]
[Verse]
[Am]Too [G]lon[F]g I keep se[G]arching the a[Dm]lleys and [Em]avenues
But it s[Am]eems I'm d[G]oing it w[F]rong
For I've s[G]een neither h[F]ide nor ha[C]ir of you
[Bumming/Singing Interlude]
[Am] [G] [F]
[G] [Dm] [Em]
[Am] [G] [F]
[G] [F] [C]
[Bridge]
And it's a sh[F]ort short w[C]alk from pe[G]bbles to br[F]icks
From sto[G]nes back to st[F]icks
We're low[G]ering the boiling point
And as ti[Dm]me goes [C]by, gets ha[G]rder to [F]fix
It's a vol[G]atile m[F]ix, like hyd[G]rogen and ox[C]ygen
[Cborus]
[Dm]Chemical swi[C]tches th[G]rown in the d[F]ark
All it t[G]akes is a [Dm]spark to be[C]gin
