Foxs Dream Of The Log Flume chords by MewithoutYou

• Difficulty: Beginner

Key: Bm

Intro:

A5
(tremolo palm muting)


Verse 1:
Bm
  Provisionally 'I' practically alive mistook signs for signified
G
  and so since have often tried to run them off a cliff like Gadarene swine
Bm
  and tied my word-ropes in anchor bends wondering whether we were someone better then,
G

  or maybe just better able to pretend (and what better means to our inevitable end!)

Bm
No, I don't know if I know, though some with certainty insist 'no certainty exists'
G
 well I'm certain enough of this: In the past 14 years, there's only one girl I've kissed


Chorus 1:
G          Em           Bm        A
 in the blistering heat of the Asbury pier  we sat quiet as monks on the Ferris wheel
G               Em         Bm        A
 until looking down at the waltzer and out at the sea I asked her 'do you ever have that recurring fantasy
G             Em             Bm             A
 where you push little kids from the tops of the rides ' And she shook her head no I said 'Oh, neither do I'
G            Em      Bm           Bm
 and with my grandma's ring I went down on one knee and the subsequent catastrophe


Verse 2:
Bm          N.C.          Bm         N.C.
has since haunted me like a fiberglass ghost in the attic of my inconveniently selective memory
G
as provisionally 'You' mercifully withdrew all the bearing points we thought we knew
Bm
  day's run day's set plot our compass shot we sailed
G
waywardly on singing our midnight archer songs until well past dawn
      Bm
it's still dark on the deck of our boats haphazardly blown broken bows
         G
our aimless arrow-words don't mean a thing so by now
           G
I think it's pretty obvious that there's no God and there's definitely a God


Chorus 2:
G           Em         Bm              A
 I dreamt of the rocks at the Asbury dune, that you jumped from the top of the Log Flume,
G              Em          Bm           A
 and they gather like wolves on the boardwalk below they're howling for answers no wolf can know -

G          Em          Bm            A
I charged at the waves with a glass in my hand, I was tossed like a ball at the bottle stand
G        Em            Bm               A
 and I landed beside your remains on the stones where your cold fingers wrapped round my ankle bones
G         Em       Bm            A
 maybe ten feet away was a star  thousands of times the size of our sun
 G           Em            Bm
exploding like tiny balloons you'd throw darts at

(Riff)

(Riff)
I slept until our chest was full
(Riff)
of yarn we spun from Shetland wool
(Riff)
in socks from where the Dorset grows
(Riff)
sheared and scoured hours before the rooster crows
