This is definitely one of my favorites by the Animal Collective. This way sounds really
to me, but try playing the chords in different ways and see what sounds best, especially
F# chord - which you can also play barre-ing the 2nd or 10th frets. The chords with the 
just mean play them as open chords instead of the barre chords.

E6 (04xxxx@1)(same chords as before)
Well i'd like to spread your perfume around the old apartment
Could we live together and agree on the same wares?
A trapeze is a bird cage even if its empty and defintintely fits the room
And we would toooo
And my dear dear dear khalana
I talk too much about you
Their ears are getting tired of me singing all the night through
Lets just talk together
You and me and me and you
And if theres nothing much to say
Well, silence is a bore

I've gotta big big big big heart beat, yeah
I think you are the sweetest thing
I wear a coat of feelings and they are loud
I've been having good days
Think we are the right age
To start out own peculiar ways
With good friendly homes

Sometimes you're quiet and sometimes I'm quiet hallelujah
Sometimes I'm talkative and sometimes you're not talkative i know....
Sometimes you hear me when others they can't hear me. Hallelujah!
Sometimes I'm naked and thank god Sometimes you're naked. Well, hello.....

      C#m (x13321@4)             B*             E*

      C#m (x13321@4)            B*                  E*
Can I call you just to hear you, would you care?
       C#m (x13321@4)            B*            E*
When I saw you put your purple finger on me
          C#m (x13321@4)           B*
There's a feelin' in your bottle
           F# (244322@1)               E*
Found your bottle, found your heart
        C#m (x13321@4)             B*             E*
Gives a feeling from your bottled little part
(Repeat)
