East St O'Neill Animals That Swim
Intro: F#m A F#m A Bm A
[F#m] Someone got shot [A]dead 'round here.
[F#m] People left [A]flowers by the Ri[Bm]bena stains on the [D]pavement.
[F#m]Friends, [D]neighbours, stra[A]ngers.[Bm] [D]
A million [F#m]blooms, one day [A]dusty, the next wet and [F#m]ragged.
So, guess [A]what? I took them [Bm]all home with [D]me
in a wheel[F#m]barrow and filled the [D]bathroom from floor to [A]ceiling, and [Bm]listen[D],
[F#m] there was no [A]devine damnation
[F#m] no cosmic retri[A]bution.
Once the petals [Bm]wilted, I pressed them all [D]flat in the largest book I've [F#m]got.
On [D]wet days, the [A]ghost sits in the [Bm]kitchen[D] leafing through [F#m]it.[Bm] [A] [F#m]
He's not [Bm]gre[A]y [F#m]or wraith-like,
[Bm] [A]but[F#m] bright and solid,[Bm] [A] [F#m]
[Bm]like [A]a new [F#m]bike.
[D]Looks at the faded colours[A] and plays the [Bm]radio[D] too [F#m]loud,
and makes a [D]damn mess of [A]fag butts and tea [Bm]leaves.[D]
Outro: F#m D A Bm D x 3
