The Burglars chords by Animal Collective

Guitar chords with lyrics

This is how I play the song! The middle part (Bb G) may not be right but that's what I came up with.
Haha this song's pretty crazy so I just tried to get as close as I could!
Suggestions and corrections welcome!

E                           D                             C                G
I could be a hare and I'd sneak into my private rivals dreaming I'm a burglar
E                         D                               C                  G
Quick as any day in my fleeting little chest of hopefuls lost it to the burglars
E                       D                                C                G
I can be aware and ya maybe I'm the same like pirates likened to the burglars
E                           D                               C                  G
Threat on any day and I'm hiding from the hare who's also hiding from the burglars

    A                        D                         G                     C
And I didn?t catch his name pow shot him on the range yow cause he was a burglar
  C                    D                     G                        C
Happens in the parks boohoo even in the old days stinking of the burglars
C                       D                    A
Happens in my home, mm-hmm, I never see it coming
🎸

A
When I was young we used to put
Alarms on our doors and screens like a burglar net
G
Now that I'm older I'm sure that?s absurd
That?s the word for the man who collects who's he stealing from next
     A
When I was young my parents yelled
Beware of the ivory man that will steal and sell
G
Now that I'm older those words are still pure
                                                            F
Not the look of a crook in his books what's he taking from you?

Bb                    G
And worried peeps go on about it
Bb                     G
Say a lot of changes better come
   Bb                         G
A pocket full of change is emptied by
    Bb                      G
A little gawky bright and bubbly bird
  Bb                         G
A lot of heroes out there thinking bout it
      Bb                          G
But minutes of their lives are ticking down
      Bb                        G
And bottles full of love are drunken by
   Bb                        G
A tricky trite and thirsty hungry bird

      Bb      G     Bb         G
Blooming tips on tulip cones that
      Bb        G       Bb      G
Don't pay out they keep on growing
    Bb           G     Bb       G
Costume thieves who never hand back
      Bb      G      Bb    G
Half of what you end up owing

          Bb                       G                 Bb                             G
Has this town really gotten much better are the burglars gonna keep on trying to meddle with it?
          Bb                       G                 Bb                             G

G
They're probably driving your car with someone
G
Close up your head cause they

Are reading your letters, come on pack up your bed for betters

  C                  F       Bb
[What you think you own you don't, burglars!] x6

C                                      F                                        Bb
Stealing from the day. Didn?t take a second. Listened to a record and they got away, sneaky are the burglars
C                                          F
When I cross their way, helpless like a chicken, bones will soon be clinkin,
                Bb
Wearing me for play, bracelet on a burglar
C                                F                                     Bb
Thought I was ok, not as bad as some, sunset on the slums see another day, happy are the burglars
C                                 F                                       Bb
Brush it all away or do I let it sink in? Is it my ambition just to turn away? Freedom for the burglars
C                                                  F
Has this town really gotten much better are the burglars gonna keep on trying to meddle with it?
