Jumping up and down the floor

My head is an animal

And once there was an animal

But it came back with a story to say

Hey!

Hey!

Her dirty paws and furry coat
Fmaj7
She ran down the forest slope
Am C
The forest of talking trees
Fmaj7
They used to sing about the birds and the bees

The bees had declared a war

They were scared down in their holes
Am C
The forest that once was green
Fmaj7
Was colored black by those killing machines
Am C
But she and her furry friends
Fmaj7
Took down the queen bee and her men
Am C
And that's how the story goes

The story of the beast with those four dirty paws

Taking over this town, they should worry

9. Your Bones
(Tabber: rprev2)
Capo 3
Verses:
Bm
In the spring we made a boat
Bm
Out of feathers, out of bones.
G D
We set fire to our homes,
G D
Walking barefoot in the snow.
Bm
Distant rhythm of the drum
Bm
As we drifted towards the storm.
G D
Baby lion lost his teeth,
G D
Now they're swimming in the sea.
Troubled spirits on my chest
Where they laid to rest.
The birds all left my tall friend
As your body hit the sand.
Million stars up in the sky
Formed a tigers eye
That looked down on my face,
Out of time and out of place.
Chorus:
Em
So hold on,
G/B Em
Hold on to what we are,
G/B Bm
Hold on to your heart.
Awaken by the sound
Of a screaming owl.
Chasing leafs in the wind,
Going where we've never been.
Said goodbye to you my friend,
As the fire spread.
All that's left are your bones
That will soon sink like stones
Chorus:
Em
So hold on,
G/B Em
Hold on to what we are,
G/B Bm
Hold on to your heart.
Instrumental: same as verse
Em
So hold on,
G/B Bm
Hold on to your heart.

and I run through the tall trees with your hand chasing me
C Am
The books that I keep by my bed are full of your stories
Fmaj7 C
That I drew up from a little dream of mine a little nightmare of yours

To be asked to take this plunge to forgive and forget
Fmaj7 C
and be the better man, to be a better man, to be a better man
C Am Fmaj7 C
So love me mother, and love me father, and love my sister as well
