A                      G           F#m
Daddy please hear this song that I sing
A                        G               F#m
In your heart there's a spark that just screams
      D                 A             E               D
For a lover to bring a child to your chest that could lay as you sleep
          A            E             D
And love all you have left like your boy used to be
     Bm                             E
Long ago wrapped in sheets warm and wet


A                           G             F#m
Blister please, with those wings in your spine.
A                 G         F#m
Love to be with a brother of mine.
          D                 A             E          
How he'd love to find your tongue in his teeth,
          D                    A            E
In a struggle to find secret songs that you keep,
           D                         Bm                   E
Wrapped in boxes so tight, sounding only at night as you sleep.


A         Bm            E                D
And in my dreams you're alive and you're crying
A       Bm             E              D
as your mouth moves in mine, soft and sweet
A        Bm                 E             D
rings of flowers round your eyes and I'll love you
A       Bm            E                   D  E
for the rest of your life... when you're ready


A                   G          F#m
Brother see, we are one in the same.
A                      G                F#m
And you left with your head filled with flames,
        D                           A                E
And you watched as your brains fell out through your teeth.
         D
Push the pieces in place.
          A              E
Make your smile sweet to see.
                D
Don't you take this away.
          Bm                      E
I'm still wanting my face on your cheek.


D           A           D            A
And when we break we'll wait for our miracle
D        A           E                   D
God is a place where some holy spectacle lies
D           A           D            A
And when we break we'll wait for our miracle
D        A              E                         D 
God is a place you will wait for the rest of your life


A          C#m        A             C#m
Two headed boy she is all you could need
         A        C#m          D     A
She will feed you tomatoes and radio wires
    D                         E
And retire to sheets safe and clean
          D                            A
But don't hate her when she gets up to leave
