A minorAm         E minorEm         A minorAm       E minorEm
Behind a curtain of towering pines the sun's settling red

 FF      C majorC      E MajorE      G+G
 E MajorE
A augmentedA city hidden high in the hills comes out to honor the dead

A minorAm        E minorEm             A minorAm        E minorEm
Families somberly walk through the town they build alters and pray

FF          C majorC     E MajorE    G+G
 E MajorE
Clean the tombs and clutch rosaries and speak of better days

A minorAm          E MajorE      C majorC         F# minorF#m
From the edge of the island they ferry back to the shore

   FF         C majorC     G+G       E MajorE
They climb under their covers and pray a little more

    A minorAm       E MajorE     C majorC         F# minorF#m
In this ancient city of stone they sigh and bow their heads

  FF            E MajorE
The living seem rather, well...dead

A minorAm       E minorEm          A minorAm      E minorEm
The sun is down the earth shakes the wind doth howl

E minorEm       FF          C majorC          E MajorE
And I'm making moves all across the park, we're stirring in the dark

A minorAm        E minorEm           A minorAm       E minorEm
The caskets squeak, the trees wheeze, the crypts all creak

E minorEm          FF            C majorC
And toes sepulchered for months in months in dust

       E MajorE
Are wiggling off their , woah

A minorAm        E minorEm           A minorAm        E minorEm
Shed your shrouds, slip your fingertips through the ground

E minorEm         FF           C majorC
Get those catacombs open I'm hoping you'll join us

     E MajorE
Everybody come on out, yeah

A minorAm       C majorC         FF     C majorC  G+G
What a lovely, lovely night for a drink and a parade

   A minorAm       C majorC          E MajorE
 A minorAm
We'll dance until the morning light, this town should be afraid

A minorAm   G+G     A minorAm    G+G   A minorAm
   FF    A minorAm
Candied pumpkins, sweet egg bread, we love rising from the dead

A minorAm    G+G    A minorAm  G+G   A minorAm
    FF  A minorAm
Carpals, tarsals, vertebrae, that's us clicking on parade

A minorAm         E MajorE      G+G          F# minorF#m
I move without any muscles, my skull's a cavernous hall

FF          C majorC          G+G         E MajorE
Tendons are made for pulling my friend, I don't need them at all

A minorAm      E MajorE       C majorC        F# minorF#m
Mescal in our mandibles and porridge on our ribs

   F5F5             E5E5
Their prospects are looking quite grim

  A5A5 Ab5Ab5
Board the mariposas now, set sail for the quivering light ahead

A5A5  Ab5Ab5 A5A5 B5B5 F5F5 E5E5 F5F5
We're descending on the town

The living we're scaring, nightmaring in fright

Note: This is basically the whole song, sans two of the breakdowns. I will update this
soon, but I would hate to risk losing all the work I've put into this, which has
