Two-Headed Boy pt. 2
by Neutral Milk Hotel

there are two ways to play this: tune down a half-step (to Eb-Ab-Db etc.) and play all open
chords, or stay in regular tuning and use barre chords. personally, I think using barre
chords sounds better (or at least more like how it's played in the recording) so if that's
not your preference, tune down and take away the little 'b' where you see one and add a '#'
where you don't.


AbAb           GbGb     F minorFm
Daddy please hear this song that I sing
AbAb           GbGb       F minorFm
In your heart there's a spark that just screams
   DbDb        AbAb      Eb MajorEb        DbDb
For a lover to bring a child to your chest that could lay as you sleep
     AbAb      Eb MajorEb       DbDb
And love all you have left like your boy used to be
   B minorBm               Eb MajorEb
Long ago wrapped in sheets warm and wet

and the same for the next verse. then this:

AbAb    B minorBm      Eb MajorEb        DbDb
And in my dreams you're alive and you're crying
AbAb   B minorBm       Eb MajorEb       DbDb
as your mouth moves in mine, soft and sweet
AbAb    B minorBm         Eb MajorEb      DbDb
rings of flowers round your eyes and I'll love you
AbAb   B minorBm      Eb MajorEb        DbDb Eb MajorEb
for the rest of your life (when you're ready)


then the last verse, and then the big climax:

DbDb     AbAb     DbDb      AbAb
And when we break we'll wait for our miracle
DbDb    AbAb     Eb MajorEb         DbDb
God is a place where some holy spectacle lies
DbDb     AbAb     DbDb      AbAb
And when we break we'll wait for our miracle
DbDb    AbAb       Eb MajorEb            DbDb
God is a place you will wait for the rest of your life


and the denouement:

AbAb     C minorCm     AbAb      C minorCm
Two headed boy she is all you could need
     AbAb    C minorCm      DbDb  AbAb
She will feed you tomatoes and radio wires
  DbDb            Eb MajorEb
And retire to sheets safe and clean
     DbDb              AbAb
But don't hate her when she gets up to leave
