Jimmy He Whispers Tab

by Manchester Orchestra


This is the bonus track from the album Mean Everything to Nothing.  "Jimmy, He 
Whispers" is the only title I've seen it go by so I'm assuming that it's right.

Capo 8th fret


                  
God knows you're on my mind
                      
I can't try to tell him otherwise
               
God knows it's only time
                         
Before i break the chain in my eyes
                    
Fear keeps you hiding at night
                          
and the creatures play ball outside
                   
Chances are slim we are right
                          
But i'd never think it any otherwise
                        
So we'll find the answers in time
                     
and the bodies pile up sky high
                             
and ill sail this ship towards the sky
                          
but ill end all alone on the other side
                                         
and if you could pull that rope just a little higher
                           
we would dangle alone like a firefly

                            
so Jimmy i've heard the voice of God
                       
and he whispered fear is logical
                       
and he said it's magic, wonderful
                        
and he swears to him it's wonderful
                          
and the lake you speak of is magical
                     
so i skip stones on it, practical
                        
and i make sure we're both wonderful

                            
you're a brother and that's alright (x3)
                        
we're brothers it makes it right
                         
cuz his blood is so red in spite
                              
of the way that our sharp teeth bite
                              
oh the way that our sharp teeth bite
                       
in each other during the night
                              
with the creatures that play outside
                               
we're the creatures that play outside

                            
cuz jimmy i've heard the voice of God
                       
and he whispered fear is logical
                                  
and the words that we heard aren't repeatable
                                  
with a thought that could kill comprehendable

                              
and we're brothers and that's alright [x3]
                            
yeah, we're brothers until we die
