Put your hand in mine, we will go skating
On the thinnest ice that we can find.
(Aah…) It takes me summer to say
It takes me winter in a day

Honestly see, they’re like you and me
Frozen when we start, we cannot help it.
Easy to destruct…taken apart.
Put your hand in mine, we will go skating
On the thinnest ice that we can find.
(Aah…) Tonight I’m watching the sky
The creatures you drew, they remain alive
The cushions lying here…and what do you want?
Is this what happens to us now?

Sunk beneath the sea, that’s no way to be.
What came over me?
Growing old with you, this is what we do.
We are leaving wounds.

Repeat til ends!

Mew – Chinaberry Tree

Tabbed by: Hallis
Tabbed from: http://www.youtube.com/watch?vgXm9exm_s2k&featurefeedrec_grec_index

In parallel sea what would I be?
My first love said to me,
“Tears out for the world to see”
I would not be
I did not see the chinaberry tree
Tears out, it would feel so
Heavenly, heavenly, heavenly
Hard now to picture a me
Without a you, without a you

“Don’t interfere”
Part of her back was frozen
For the remainder of the war
“Don’t be concerned”
But I never learned how not to be
As my first love said to me,
“I don’t care. I’m not there.”
So that I could not sleep
My whole being was falling apart
So that I soon cried out,
“Dear friends, hold me!”

Mew – RepeaterBeater
No more stories are told today / i’m sorry they washed away / no more
stories / the world is grey / i’m tired / let’s wash away

Soft sheets. Whats this about
Inside your mahogany cyprus
As long as were me and you

we should not lose terrain
Wild and young, we got seasick
On your seven

Get off cheap. That sits with her
And the warmth of it splatters
We all can wring her neck

First we gain new terrain
When we?re young, we get seasick

On your seven
We?re upset, real tush

Ooh, honestly he’s like no-one
Like most, you snip

Soft sheets. What?s this about?
Inside your mahogany cyprus
As long as we?re me and you

We should not lose terrain
Wild and young, we got seasick

On your seven

Helping me cover up things
I wish I never had found

CHORUS:

Confident, tangled up in a nice life
Put the spider in you
Watching in, disregard
You live a nice life
With the spider and you

BRIDGE:

I saved myself
For someone somewhere’s
Sweet caress
Something goes wrong
And all I sought was happiness

PRE CHORUS

CHORUS

SOLO: Chords (Same as in VERSE): Bm A E D F#

BRIDGE

BRIDGE 2:

And so, in right wing fashion
We’ll nurture xenophobia
And be strong, in right wing fashion
With paste and generosity
Because no one is safe
From someone somewhere’s
Sweet embrace
And so I have simply
decided
To dislike you now

FINE D

[Verse 1]

Mending hand bleeding and
Lend my hands the wheel, you fly over me
Let it go now, you’ve been glad too
With my hand as the wheel you cry over me

[Pre-Chorus]

I would like to be a child
Drown with me until you die

[Verse 2]

I thought I, I heard you cry
But it’s just the wheels that ride over me
But then I, I know that’s why
When I hear you sneeze

You’re my dancing girl
I never thought you’d mean the world
It’s why I’m here and why it seems reliable
So much time for us
There’s nowhere here but there it was
The tale I had, and you became a friend again

I can hear them
They lost their sense and feelings
When you touch the wheel
I’ll be alright asleep forever

[Pre-Chorus]

I would like to be a child
Drown with me until you die

You’re my dancing girl
I never thought you’d mean the world
It’s why I’m here, and why it seems reliable
So much time for us
There’s nowhere here but there it was
The tale I told in a breeze

‘cause you should have been a Tsin-tsi to you.

CAPO 5B

INTRO, G V

I was on my way, I swear
But I took a wrong turn, there
For I zigged when I should have zagged
It’s a somber turn out tonight
Chemistry class
Try to do our part
Something happened in the dark
We bought raincoats and pretty charms
And they did remember this time
To keep it inside
Now we keep the water still
On the broken window sill
For if not we have to move

CHOURS
It is green outside
Where it seems magical
And if nothing works
We’ll do nothing
I hope we’re on time

And we should’nt look at the sky
The perilous light
We were not allowed outside
And no one could tell us why
I got worried
With shaky hands
So we said the words that we kept
For worrying times
I was on my way, I swear
But I lost my way somewhere

And the trees were glistening

From the silver trickling water
When the rain returns
We had our suspicions
Thinking what my heart confirmed

It is sweet outside
Where it seems magical
And if nothing works
We’ll do nothing
Save yourself tonight
Asleep in the dark
I hope we’re on time

From my boat I can see your house, and when the lights are on I can watch you move
Hear the wind whispering your name, twice the encouragement of the real you
Callie if you really want me to, I can always get you down, if you got the money for me
Callie in the summer rain you will be kept dry you see, if you got the money for me
Making amen_ds for distant wrong, sincere

You can run away, leave your books behind you
But you should look back twice, just to be on the safe side

From my boat I can see your house, but now the lights are off there is no one home
You are just like an avalanche, cold as I might have guessed but at least I’m covered up for now

In a big big way, I am really small
I get off my feet, but I’m still distant
Don’t you just love goodbyes?
Don’t you just love goodbyes?

Callie lets get it over with, I can always get you down, if you got the money for me
Callie in the summer rain you will be kept dry you see, if you got the money for me
Most of our li_ves we try so hard to find, the time__

I won’t care for you, like I’m really supposed to
There are things I’ll do, that could really hurt you
Don’t you just love goodbyes?
Don’t you just love goodbyes?

(1 5 6) Don’t you just love goodbyes? (1 5 6) Don’t you just love goodbyes?
(1 5 6) Don’t you just love goodbyes? (1 5 6) Don’t you just love goodbyes?
(1 5 6) Don’t you just love goodbyes? (1 5 6)

He has a super high voice so this is a more realistic version for us normal people 🙂

All come in: F#m E Bm D x2

Farah, now that we’re here can you tell me

exactly how I should have done?

Farah drives with her eyes closed

Do you ever inflict unwanted memories?

I know you, and I know it won’t take you long

to make me smile

Farah, angelic girl, I’ll have you know

it’s you and me, potentially

Farah, don’t pull the carpet from under me

Indifference is killing me.

Am I wry?

Oh my fallacy fallacy in my words

Am I wry?

I know you and I know you’re not afraid,

to say the least.

E A Bm E x2

Diamond ring diamond ring, but you can’t find it

cold is the night.
