------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LION IN A COMA - Animal Collective ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Francis Tuning: Standard Intro: E Verse You can play this bit during the verse, because the keyboard chords are Abm/E - F#/E - E E Eadd9 E Eadd9 e|----4------2------0------2-------| B|----0------0------0------0-------| G|----1------1------1------1-------| D|----2------2------2------2-------| A|----2------2------2------2-------| E|----0------0------0------0-------| Or just stick to E if you prefer E When all this mess will get me down I will depart from Chinatown E Weaving in and out of line, the sidewalk's full of merchandise A My nervous tick has got to quit, my cheeks are chewed down to the bit E Up on the roof they're still around the hustling crowds still reach down E I go up there and light a leaf and wish our turn was not so brief A I'm paler than a summer blouse that's packed inside a haunted house E I pack my bags and feel the family here is cropped by many hands A That dig and plant me for the spring, come dig me out my lucid brain A this wilderness up in my head, A this rhythm that's up in my head, A N.C. this rhythm it needs to get right out of my clothes and get into my bedroom. E E Is there no reason it can't be the way it was, music and me? E My three best friends so casually just letting go so joyfully A But if I let my wrist get tired, but if I let my spirit cry out E There'll always be that fear of dying or is it just trying to divide? E It makes me think my dearest things are not what they're supposed to be A I trick myself when it is hard, I've got to keep up, oh my god E And hope that I will not be wrong and keep my faith inside a song E And we'll make up 'morrow, which reminds me not to leave them back inside A this wilderness up in my head, this rhythm that's up in my head, N.C. this rhythm it needs to get right out of my clothes and get into my bedroom.
