Capo: 3 Tuning: E A D G B E

[Verse 1]

^DBurn up with the water ^DThe floods are on the plains ^DThe planets in a rose ^DWho knows what they contain? ^DAnd my brain is like an orchestra ^DPlaying on, insane ^DWill you love me like you loved me in the January rain? D

[Verse 2]

^DMom and Dad and violins ^GSomber country ^Dsilence

The needle stopped the kicking

The c^Alothes pins on the floor And my^D heart is playing hide and seek ^GWait and count to ^Dfour Will you ^Alove me like you loved me and I'll ^Gnever ask for ^Dmore

[Chorus]

^GWhat did you tell me Mary When you were there so sweet and very ^DFull of field and stars

You carried all of time

Oh and, ^Aheavens, when you looked at me Your eyes were like machinery Your ^Dhands were making artifacts in the corner of my mind

^GMonastery monochrome Boom balloon machine and oh ^DDiamond rings and gutter bones

Marching up the mountain

^GWith our aching planning High and smiling

Cheap drink Dark and violent

^DFull of butterflies The violent tenderness

The sweet asylum

The ^Aclay you find is fortified We felt unfocused fade the line The ^Dsugar rush

The constant hush The pushing of the water gush

The ^Gmarching band When April ran May ^DJune bugs fly and Push you^Ar gin Jacob

With the tired wiry brandy look

^GHere we go round Mary in your ^Dfamous story book [Verse 3] ^DWe overcome the sirens We ^Glook both left and r^Dight And I can feel the numbness ^Aaccompany my plight And ^DI know that someday soon I'll see you But n^Gow you're out of s^Dight And you'll k^Aiss me like you used to in the ^GJanuary n^Dight

[Chorus]

^GWhat did you tell me Mary When you were there so sweet and very ^DFull of field and stars

You carried all of time

Oh and, ^Aheavens, when you looked at me Your eyes were like machinery Your ^Dhands were making artifacts in the corner of my mind ^GMonastery monochrome

Boom balloon machine and oh

^DDiamond rings and gutter bones Marching up the mountain With our ^Gaching planning

High and smiling Cheap drink Dark and violent
