here are some of the weirder chords in the song and how
kevin ( most likely ) plays them :
Cmaj7 ( x35450 )
Fmaj7 ( x33550 )
Edim7 ( xx1212 )
g#aug ( xx6554 )
Am ( xx7555 )
B A C A
F G F C D E
E F# G
i do wrong , strictly speaking , just for myself , because it
E F# G
makes me feel like a real man to hold hegemony over my business , and i
Dm C Cmaj7 Fmaj7
i refuse to be abused by the milieu of wistful decay
D E F F/E D
besides i’m used to all of my scruples deserting me
D/C# C E7
like they’ve done today
B A
the lady from the block hunched over on the stoop
C A
with her withered old titty out ,
F G F
sayin’ i’ve been rolled so many times , it’s just
C
feeding the pigeons
B
now her grandson swings a little rabbit by the leg
A C A
while his mother’s playing two wooden flutes
F G F
i want to repo some fugitive air
C D E
to escape this street’s vagary aesthetic
E
has anybody here seen my old friend blob?
F# G
oh , has anybody seen where he’s gone?
E
what he thinks i owe him is his former life
F# G
but how can i unmake someone else’s mistakes?
Dm C
i guess i was his anti – hero
Cmaj7 Fmaj7
the bitter word on his lips
D E
i hope i never feel a terror like
F F/E D D/C# C E7
when you’ve discovered your autonomy had flipped
C Edim7 F
i feel like i possess only the bad aspects
Edim7 G F C E7
of invisibility , but none of the good ones
C Edim7 F
are we walking mausoleums of scented rotting flesh?
Edim7 G
mother always liked you best
F C
liked your teeth upon her breast
C Edim7 F
paint him with the oils from the eyes of street cats
Edim7 G
through some shitty witchcraft
F C E7
and apply it to their brows and genitalia
C Edim7 F
i had no idea how deeply i wounded you
Edim7 G
but i don’t need no forgiveness
F C E7
and no level of contrition will ever do
C Edim7 F Edim7 G F C E7
C Edim7 F Edim7 G F C
C C C/G g#aug Am g#aug F Fmaj7 Cmaj7
notes :
the “c D e” in the intro and fourth verse is played barred
at the 3rd , 5th , and 7th frets , but it sounds great if you
drop down to the open E shape for the “e F# g” that follows .
i know the D/C# sounds weird , but i was able to isolate the
acoustic guitar track , and that’s what he’s playing . focus
on the descending root notes on the a string like he does .
