Capo I


C...........................Am
So the saying says

....................F.......................Dm
An elephant never forgets

........................C...................Am
Standing in the concrete cave

.............F.............Dm
Swaying side and sing

C
They walked over the ocean

F
And their dreams they dreamed awake

C
Until the lights grew dim

F
Until the cop cars came

C........................................F
Everybody tells me this is crazy, yes I know

...............C
But I'm a man man man

Am.........................F.........Dm
man man man man eater

.......................C.......................................Am
But still you're surprised prised prised

...........F.......Dm
when I eat ya

You know they call them killer whales
But you seem suprised
When it pinned you down to the bottom of the tank
Where you can't turn around
It took half your leg and both your lungs
And I craved I ate hearts of sharks, I know you know it

I'm a man man man man, man man man eater
But still you're surprised prised prised when I eat ya

I'm a man man man man, man man man eater
But still you're surprised prised prised when I eat ya

It will end again in moonlit song

Neko Case - I Wish I Was the Moon

C........................C/B
Chimney falls and lovers blaze

Am.......................F
Thought that I was young

.............C.........................C/B
Now i've freezing hands and bloodless veins

Am...................F
As numb as I've become

F
I'm so tired

Fm............................C
I wish I was the moon tonight

Last night I dreamt I had forgotten my name
'Cause I had sold my soul but awoke just the same
I'm so lonely
I wish I was the moon tonight

God blessed me, I'm a free man
With no place free to go
I'm paralyzed and collared-tight
No pills for what I fear

This is crazy
I wish I was the moon tonight

Chimney falls and lovers blaze
Thought that I was young
Now I've freezing hands & bloodless veins
As numb as i've become

I'm so tired,
I wish I was the moon tonight

F.....................................................C
How will you know if you found me at last

C..............................................C/B
'Cause i'll be the one, be the one, be the one

............Am.............F
With my heart in my lap

F..........................Fm
I'm so tired, I'm so tired

Fm............................C
I wish I was the moon tonight
