MGMT ~ FLASH DELIRIUM
from "Congratulations"

Dm

F
Mild apprehension
      Dm                       A/E
Blank dreams of the coming fun
F
 Distort the odds of a turnaround
    Dm                       A
Gut screams out next to none
           B
So turn it on
        E
Tune it in
         A
And stay inert
         F
You say "I've got the backbone"
         Dm                    A
The back way to escape the gun
F
 Climbing a tree with a missing limb
        Dm            A
And not saving anyone
           B
And now it hurts
           E
To stay at home and see

A
Flash 

The mirror ball's throwing mold
    Dm
You can't get a grip if there's nothing to hold
        B
See the flash catch a white lily laugh and wilt
          E
So if you must smash a glass first fill it to the hilt


F
Plants

As far as I know are still, 
C              A
 Still bending toward the light
          F
And if we dance

Until the heart explodes
      Dm                A
It'll make this place ignite
F                 G
 And even if this hall collapses
C                  Am                  F
 I can stand by my pillar of hope it's just
  Dm            A
A case of Flash Delirium


F
Here's a growing culture

Deep inside a corpse
Dm
Ages stuck together
A
Taking it to the source
F
Timeless desperation
C
Pictures on a screen scream
Dm           A
 "hey people, what does it mean?"

B   E   A

F                Fm
Comfort keeps us nice
   C               A
So quick to donate everything
    B                               E
Die wolken drifting blinding smiles circling 
    F      Fm       C
And time's tingling spines
 A                 B
Attaching hands to floor
    E           
The rosy-tinted 

A
Flash

The hot dog's getting cold
           Dm
And you'll never be as good as the Rolling Stones
          B
Watch the birds in the airport gathering dirt
          E
Crowd the clean magazine chick lifting up her skirt


F(hold)
 Why close one eye and try to
C                  Am
 Pledge allegiance to the sun
F                                Dm         A
 When plastic ghosts start terrorizing everyone
F          G
 Geometric troops aligning
C        C/B       Am
 Carried up to the burial mounds
F
 My earthbound heart is heavy
C               Am
 Your heartbeat keeps things light
F                          Dm              A
 With the violence forever threatening the night
   F             G
And even if this hall collapses
C                  Am                 B
 I can stand by my pillar of hope and trust
                     E
That our heads won't bust


F                  Ab
Six six, five five red battleships
      C/G
Forty earthlike planets
      A
Three holes two tits
    B
One fork in it's side
     E
Zero tears in their eyes

(double time)
F
Sue the spiders

Sink the W:oelsh
Ab
Stab your facebook

Sell sell sell
C/G
Undercooked

Overdone
A
Mass adulation not so funny
B
Poisoned honey

Pseudo science

Silly money
                 A
You're my honey
