  			E         C 
Oh comely  
                                      E 
I will be with you when you lose your breath 
                C                                      E 
Chasing the only meaningful memory you thought you had left 
                                   C 
With some pretty bright and bubbly terrible scene 
                                 E 
That was doing her thing on your chest 
                C 
But oh comely  
                                    G 
It isn't as pretty as you'd like to guess                                      
In your memory, you're drunk on your automy 
   C                          E 
It doesn't mean anything at all 

           C 
Oh comely 
                                    E 
All of your friends are letting you blow 
                   C 
Bristling and ugly 
                                          E 
Bursting with fruits falling out from the holes 
                                 C 
Of some pretty bright and bubbly friend  
                                                E 
You could need to say comforting things in your ear 
                 C 
But oh comely  
                                                G 
There isn't such one friend that you could find here 
Standing next to me 
He's only my enemy  
     C                             
I'll crush him with everything I own 
G 
say what you want to say 
                        C 
and painful your always moving your mouth  
                          E         C  D  G  D  G  D  G  D  E 
to pull out all your miracles away for me 


E   
Your father made fetuses  
With flesh licking ladies  
      C 
While you and your mother  
Were asleep in the trailer park 
E    
Thunderous sparks from the dark of the stadiums 
    C 
The music and medicine you needed for comforting 
   E 
So make all your fat fleshy fingers to moving 
    C 
And pluck all your silly strings  
And bend all your notes for me 
E 
Soft silly music is meaningful magical 
    C 
The movements were beautiful 
All in your ovaries 
E 
All of them milking with green fleshy flowers 
      C 
While powerful pistons were sugary sweet machines 
E 
Smelling of semen all under the garden 
    C                                       
Was all you were needing when you still believed in me 

E   C 
(Da da da part) 


E    
I know they buried her body with others 
    C 
Her sister and mother and 500 families  
    E 
And will she remember me 50 years later 
  C         
I wished I could save her in some sort of time machine 
E 
Know all your enemies  
   C 
We know who are enemies are 

Am  E  (x3) 

Am 
Goldaline my dear                        
We will fold and freeze together 
E 
Far away from here                    
There is sun and spring and green forever  
    Am 
But now we move to feel 
For ourselves inside some stranger's stomach 
E 
Place your body here 
                                         Am  E                   
Let your skin begin to blend itself with mine 

Am             E
