Bridge: sorry, my version of this song has the bridge quite muted on a bad recording, so it’s up to you. Email me at [email protected] if you have corrections, please.

Am Dm E Am

I'm painting all the melons on the walls of your fish fingers, yes I am

Dm E Am

I'm imitating birds out on the hypnosphere of play doe in the crank

Dm E Am

Inside of me there's someone who keeps knocking and demanding to be free

Dm E Am

I'm gonna steal that Ringo set list on the wall and put it in the mail for

you

C G

I think the birds can see

Dm Am ? F

Everything a little sooner than me

C G

I think the birds can see

Dm Am ? F

Everything a little sooner than me

I'm not serious, this is the truth

A military television monastery advertisement plays

Seven hungry hammers try to fit inside of six delicious days

I got my student tie on and my statement dated tennis shoes as well

Down the block they're trying to take him out before he takes us all to hell

I think the birds can see

Everything a little sooner than me

I think the birds can see

Everything a little sooner than me

Blue

I think the birds can see

Everything a little sooner than me

I think the birds can see

Everything a little sooner than me

I think the birds can see

Everything a little sooner than me

I'm not serious, this is the truth
