This is my interpretation of the song Armchairs by Andrew Bird. It's
different than how
he plays it on Armchair Apocrypha, but I think it works and sounds nice,
particularly
if you don't want to fingerpick!
Bm
I dreamed you were a cosmonaut
Em D Em
Of the space between our chairs
Bm
And I was a cartographer
Em D Em
Of the tangles in your hair
Em
I sang the song that silence brings
G
It's the one that everybody knows
Bm
Yah, everybody knows the song that silence sings
G D
And this is how it goes
Bm
These looms that weave apocrypha
Em D Em
They're hanging from a strand
Bm
These dark and empty rooms are full
Em D Em
Of incandescent hands
Em
Awkward pause
Em
Fatal flaws
Em G
And time, it's a crooked bow
G
Time’s a crooked bow
G
In time you need to learn to love
Em D
The ebb just like the flow
Em Am Em Bm
Grab hold of your bootstraps, and pull like hell
A# C
Till gravity feels sorry for you, and lets you go
C A#
As if you lack the proper chemicals to know
C A A#
The way it felt the last time you let yourself fall this low
A# Dm
Time, time it’s a crooked bow
A#
Time's a crooked bow
Dm
Time's a crooked bow
C A#
Oh
