(Intro)  [B-G#m-B-G#m]



(Verse 1)

B
I slept all day

 G#m
awoke with distaste

      B
and I railed,

      G#m
and I raved



(Verse 2)

E
That the difference between

C#
the sprout and the bean

E
is a golden ring,

C#
it is a twisted string.

E
And you can ask the counselor;

C#
you can ask the king;

            E
and they'll say the same thing;

C#
and it's a funny thing:



(Chorus)

          E
Should we go outside?

          C#
Should we go outside?

          E
Should we break some bread?

      C#
Are y'interested?



[B-G#m-B-G#m]



(Verse 3)

B
And as I said,

   G#m
I slept as though dead

         B                  G#m
dreaming seamless dreams of lead.


(Verse 4)

E
When you go away,

C#
I am big-boned and fey

E
in the dust of the day,

C#
in the dirt of the day.


(Bridge) 

E
and Danger! Danger! Drawing near them was a white coat,

C#
and Danger! Danger! drawing near them was a broad boat,

E
And the water! water! running clear beneath a white throat,

C#
and the hollow chatter of the talking of the Tadpoles,


(Chorus)

    F#      E
who know th'outside!

          C#
Should we go outside?

          E
Should we break some bread?

      C#
Are y'interested?
