Song: we all know
Album: nino rojo (2004)
Intro: G Em (x4)
We all knowG Em
That the wind blowsG Em
And the moon glowsG Em
And our lungs growG Em
CWe belong to the floating hand
A7...
that's made by some animals,
And we all dance soG Em
We can let goG Em
And remove clothesG Em
And trade lobesG Em
CLike the type of tongue that roots from your breast
A7...
and it shakes your pretty little clavicle,
A good friendG Em
Is walkingG Em
To a homelandG Em
An inside landG, Em
And to him you can say
CLeave your eyes at the horizon's dead door cause you
A7...
won't need them anymore,
The childrenG Em
Da da da di dum spend the dawningG Em
Da da da di dum and the morningG Em
Da da da di ra disappearingG Em
Hm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm m
CThey reappeared as the seed of love
you know the A7earth births the vegetablesG, Em
We all knowG (x4)Em
Outro: (Enter horn section)

The song mainly consists of the top progression
but at various times frequents the lower.

Attempted made as far as possible to correspond the chord
changes w/lyrics.
Fingerpicked/strummed (of course)
d= down strum
u= up stum
ux= up muffle (get the down up motion going but just slightly
release pressure on the upward movement to create the small muffle)
Transcribed by ear, all my own work.
Good Luck
