Standard (EADGBE)

(Maybe play some hockey)

 My mouth is a liar (beware)

 My feet are on fire (who cares)

 I've never been shy-er (i'm not scared)

 If everyone's bumping around

Because

Knowers know to know and

Goers go to go and

Show-ers show to show and

No one's gonna ask your name

 When you fade into forever

 (i can't figure out the lyrics to this line. can anyone help?)

How can anyone say right or wrong (i love you)

And then tell you you're ok

Oh I loved the ground once

And i kept my fingers warm

Everything was true

Everything was true

When your

Penis fell apart and

No one had a heart and

No one had a chart to

Show you the right way

You

Had to be a creature

Without specific features

There were no teachers

To tell you what to say (rip out your guts)

Song: My Shadow Tags on Behind

Tuned down 1/2 step

 Everything was wasted, tasted, face it kid

You were never what they wanted

 I'm a bird, i'm a tree, i'm a fish outside.

 The city is a breast dangling from the sky

 Oh my feet go where we show the logo

 my shadow tags on behind

 Oh the world was never meant to be the Brooklyn Bridge

Arcades and soda and tulips

Chimneys and houses and old things

Computers and loving the cold things

 Oh my feet go when we show the logo

 My shadow tags on behind

solo at 1:00

The solo melodies are played over the verses now.

 Oh time is like a green train of commuters

Love is a golden bath of computers

 I know that everyone's got something that they do

 But i don't wanna be obsolete to you

 Oh i don't want to carry my bag on one shoulder for you

Song:Bartholemew

(Adam's mom sings backup)

Play all chords as arpeggios

Bartholemew bring me a fork

 There's a minstrel parade on tv

 Let the lights glow, an excellent reason

 To stay home tonight

Oh the old men wave their canes

 They have yesterday's brains

 And their worlds stop turning on sundays

The young lives are clipped

 And smudged on the rocks

Distorted and forgotten

Quietly she enters the room

 But we can't talk, we can not be seen

Returning her new pair of jeans

Just to stay home tonight

Oh the mirror always shows

 There's a stranger in my clothes

Standing on the third rail

Lost at sea

searching for me

 And we don't know how to sail

So if you go to guitar store

 You will see me again

Holding the door

It's an excellent night to sleep on the floor

 If you stay home tonight

Song: Mozzarella Swastikas

Adam uses an alternating bass pattern for the chords in this song. It looks something like this:

For C chords:

For G7 chords:

For F chords:

Intro

strum the c chord pattern

Verse

In a land made of string

 where the hills are balls of twine

and the doctor knits the sun

 down in a baseball diamond mine

and the mozzarella sweaters

 get sewn to the tits

where the lump behind the sheet

 is where the tumor took a shit

 and i'll be getting head

 under the rainbow

 and i'll be getting head

 under the rainbow

 and i'll be getting head

C Am F G **see bottom of tab for detail**

under the raaa-inbo-oh-w **on how adam ends the chorus **

well we came upon a cracker

 and we all came on this cracker

and the last one had to eat it

 and she did

but she threw it up like a whore

 and the sunshine stabbed right through her

like a whore on a skewer

 in the wind

 and i'll be getting head

 under the rainbow

 and i'll be getting head

 under the rainbow

 and i'll be getting head

C Am F G **see bottom of tab for detail**

under the raaa-inbo-oh-w **on how adam ends the chorus **

now the king was reading comics

 when he stepped into some vomit

and he screamed like forty wolves

 being burned alive

and i rode my dolpin adam

 and he fed my dolphin stars

he fed my dolphin stars

 like you'd put gasoline in cars

 papa was smart

 but mama said i wasn't

 now i've got a million dollars

 but who doesn't?

 gonna go to the graveyard

 to get some beggin' done

gonna dig up megan

and cut out my son

Intro

Verse

Heart and soul Baby

There's no goal

Turn the lights on bright

You're a rock and roll star

Feel my love

Coming from the heavens above

When my eyes meet your eyes

You know it's true

Chorus

Baby come dance with me

Baby come dance with me-ee

On tv at the tv station

Baby come dance with me

Baby come dance with me-ee

On tv at the tv station

You are lost

And nobody wants to be here alone

Ooo baby's in mint condition

Man I'm doin' some dirty wishin'

Let's both get on that rocket to the stars

Baby come dance with me

Baby come dance with me-ee

On tv at the tv station

Baby come dance with me-ee

On tv at the tv station

Song: Computer Show

 Oh I stumbled in all wide-eyed

To the computer show

 I didn't have a passport

 So they turned me into snow

They turned me into snow

Follow you follow you follow you follow you

Into every store

Follow you follow you follow you follow you

Tell me what i'm for

Tell me what i'm for

 Oh I stumbled in all wide-eyed

To the computer show

 I didn't have my passport

 So they turned me into snow

They turned me into snow

Follow you follow you follow you follow you

Into every store

Follow you follow you follow you follow you

Tell me what i'm for

You caught my eye against your eye

Deep inside the crowd

 You hung me from the hooks inside

 My asshole and my mouth

My asshole and my mouth

Follow you follow you follow you follow you

Into every store

Follow you follow you follow you follow you

Tell me what i'm for

Tell me what i'm for

Solo

 I stumbled in all wide-eyed

To the computer show

 I didn't have my passport

 So they turned me into snow

They turned me into snow

They turned me into snow

Take me home with you

Take me home with you

Song: Her Father and Her

tuned about 1/4 step down

Father owned the dating bar so mother ran the store

We all lived there together with the army at the door

No one to do my laundry or to tell me that they're sure

But there really is no me and there's no army at the door

I hustle my way to your bedside

I ride on your body like a cab ride

I carry refreshments to the good guys

I made the good guys some home fries

Pardon me anyone where is the nearest shore

We're all in this together and the police are at the door

Someone do my laundry or smash through the floor

To the tropical vacation buried underneath the store

And I was your favorite bullfighter

Whose looks were new to your eyes

And i fell apart in that bullfight

Where the dress was the sky to your thighs

She said that she had an hour

Her father he was in the shower

And she took me to her little tower

And she showed me her little flower

And just when i thought it was safe to put down my pen

She said maybe i will let you fall in love with me again

Maybe i will let you fall for loving me again

Then she showed me her badge and i think she said then

Song: Baby's Gonna Die Tonight

intro and verses

Baby's gonna be alright

And it don't mean I don't love you

When i put a gun to your face

It just means I wanna get rough with you

Song: Times Are Bad

I emailed Adam about this song and he replied with the real chords and that his guitar

probably out of tune for the recording. I'll tab up the chords he told me he played. To

along with the cd, tune your guitar about 1/4 of a step up and substitute the chords this way:

CD Tab

 Well, times are bad

 And all the time you're feeling sad

 And people are laughing

Telling you to go away

 And your feet are trudgin'

 You're always acting like a curmudgeon

 Well i know i know

 That it's hard hard hard

 Well it's hard to walk around

Feeling like a circus clown

 Grab a big baton

 And twirl it like a magic wand

 'Cause your cards are dealt

 And everything is deeply felt

 Well i know i know

 That it's hard hard hard

 And the people that you love

 Are attacking you from above

 And everyone that you trust

 Is just selling you a bucket of lies

 Well just believe

 That it's all gonna be ok

 Well i know i know

 That it's hard hard hard

Song: Can You See Me?

Fingerpick the intro and verse chords like this-

Intro

In a town, in a city, in an eyeball, on a rock

In a fence where a goat was alone by himself

There was a boy Who was there

A boy who built a snowman out of himself

I've been popping out of closets in robin hood suits

I've been spotted in pictures with Navy recruits

Look at your costume you know that it's true

Any one could pop in as you

Try to untie your lips but they were double knotted

I tried to break into you brain but all the entrances were rotted

If the moon had minute hands it would have meant a lot

But God would have made the moon as a clock.

(strum chords)

Look, look, look at me doing this

Look, look, look at me doing that

Look, look, look at the way that i am

bye bye bye to the crazy ones

bye bye bye to the crazy ones

bye bye bye to the crazy ones

Look, look, look at me doing this

Look, look, look at me doing that (2x)

Look, look, look at the way that i am

(under heavy feedback and distortion)

Look, look, look at me doing this

Look, look, look at me doing that

Look, look, look at the way that i am

(one strum per chord for the rest of the song)

But if everybody was the best

There would be so few of the rest

Oh the places where you've never been

Oh the world was just a baby then

A million ways you learn to cry

When the boy's little waves pass you by

Oh never to be there again

Oh the children where so old-fashioned then

Coffins decked out on the street

Who's the stranger with the purple feet?

Don't i remember him from somewhere

before his feet lost his hair?

But if everyone is coffin-bound

Then i'm so scared of being not around

I'm so scared to never make a sound

I'm so scared of being underground

Song: Bleeding Heart

688766 (alt: x13331)

F x8.10.10.10x (alt: 133211)

Intro

Verse

 When I wake up in the morning I smell your smell

God knows that i'm not doing well

 You're my Clementine, my sweet sunshine

 A sparkling diamond in your eye

Chorus

Bleeding heart, my bleeding heart

Won't you cut out my bleeding heart?

Over the mountains by the sea and the shore

I hope you come knocking at my door

(same chord pattern for the rest of the song)

Baby baby let's live in a shoe

And I'll tell you some things that I used to do

You're a broken book, a thievin' crook

You stole my heart with just one look

Bleeding heart, my bleeding heart

Won't you cut out my bleeding heart?

Over the mountains by the sea and the shore

I hope you come knocking at my door

You take my stuff and you make me blue

You've got me so goddamned subdued

And every day i hope and pray

You'll stay with me while the skies are grey

Bleeding heart, my bleeding heart

Won't you cut out my bleeding heart?

Over the mountains by the sea and the shore

I hope you come knocking at my door
