Swing the Cellar Door - Hey Rosetta!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Standard
These are just the raw chords for this song. It's up to you to figure out
the strumming pattern and shapes/positions of the chords that are used.
Intro
wait-wait-wait-
before you go i want you to know
all that you were and the sound that you made when you moved
before you leave i need you to see
all that you mean, you would hardly believe it
(bass build-up on )
Verse 1
sitting in the kitchen wondering how it is i'll tell you this
when the phone rings, so i start right in then:
we are shells or instruments, inside there's sound that speaks to us
if you listen, and i've been listening
Chorus 1
and i'm sorry to reduce you to this useless imagistic bullshit
but maybe that's all i've got, maybe that's all i've got
sorry to confuse you with some foolish thing that misses truth
but maybe that's all we are, around a brightly dying star
Verse 2
these spiralled shells so sexual, could out-reveal the texts
we dwell upon, or maybe not, but certainly
a sound that's free can open me and easily
just rip my heart out, and start me shouting:
Interlude 1 (played on piano)
this is how i feel... (repeat)
Chorus 2
i'm sorry to reduce you to this useless imagistic bullshit
but maybe that's all i've got, maybe that's all i've got
sorry to abuse you with this ruthlessly sadistic music
but maybe that's all i want (i'm just a really pretentious guy)
Interlude 2
but wait! wait! wait! wait! wait! wait!
before you go, i want you to know
all that you were, and the sound that you made when you moved
before you leave, i need you to see
am D (start making it funky!)
all that you mean, you would hardly believe it
you would hardly believe it, you would hardly believe it...
if i could just speak it, you would hardly believe it...
you would hardly believe
Outro (piano again)
but this is how i feel...
