MX Missiles  Andrew Bird

[Intro] 
[Em] [B] [Em] [B] [C] [G] [B7] [C] [C] [G] [C] [G] [A] [D] [B7] 
[Verse 1] 
[Em]And now as I would judge and [A7sus2]say you're aloof
But [Em/D#]you know the truth is a [Em/C#]seed
You know what you [A]need is a confla[D]gration[B7]
Cause when [Em]I see the blood
And the [A7sus2]bits of your broken tooth
It [Em/D#]gives me the proof that I [Em/C#]need
It's the proof that you [A]bleed
It's a revela[D]tion
Yeah it's a reve[G]lation, it's a reve[B7]lation
[Solo]

[Cborus] 
I t[E]hought you were a [A]life-sized [B]paper doll
[E]Propped up in the [A]hardware [B]store
[E]Propped up on the [A]front lawn [B]watching the parade
Of those [E]legionnaires with [A]two-by-[B]four's
As they're marching off to [C#m]war[F#]
Yeah they're marching off to [B]war[G#]
[Verse 2] 
[C#m]I didn't know what you were [G#]made of
[C#m]The colour of your blood, what you're [G#]afraid of
[A]Are you made of calcium or [E]are you carbon-based
And if you're[G#] made of calcium I'll [C#m]have to take a taste
Cause, listen, [A]calcium is deadly [E]tender to the tooth
And it's one [A]sure-fire way to know if you're
[E]MX-missile-proof, oh [F#]no,[F#7] or if you're just a[B]loof[B7]

[Verse 3] 
[C#m]You were in the ground in late Nov[G#]ember
[C#m]When the leaves in earth are [G#]down
Did you,[A] did you think they would rem[E]ember
[G#]How you almost made st[C#m]age-out
Cause when you're [A]running for the game against [E]alfonso
And you [A]fell upon the ground and chipped a [E]tooth
Oh no, [F#]listen, I really have surprised her
To [B]learn that you are really MX-[B7]missile-proof
[Cborus] 
Oh, I [E]thought you were a life-sized [B]paper doll
And you're [E]propped up in the hardware [B]store
You were [E]propped up on the front lawn [B]watching the parade of those [E]legionnaires with two-by-[B]four's
As they're marching off to w[A]ar[B] [E]
Yeah they're marching off to w[A]ar[B] [E]
Oh they're [A]march[B]ing [E]
