Shiny Decemberists
[Cadd9] [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7] [Em(add9)] [Em] [Em(add9)] [Em]
[Cadd9]By the [Cmaj7]bumper cars, [Cadd9]in the [Cmaj7]pretty twining light[Em(add9)] [Em] [Em(add9)] [Em]
I may have gone too far, I may have gone too much, too long, I'm
a [D]dull and witless [C]boy [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7] [Em(add9)] [Em] [Em(add9)] [Em]
[Cadd9]In the [Cmaj7]after bars, [Cadd9]think I was [Cmaj7]sullied by a dream[Em(add9)] [Em] [Em(add9)] [Em]
In the killing jar, you and me at war at arms, all
[D]falling in em[C]brace [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7] [Em(add9)] [Em]
[Em]Tell [F#]me [G]why [A]you [Bm]lied, and
[Am]what it is you [G]do to keep your [Cadd9)]eyes [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7]
all [D]shiny [C] [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7] [Em(add9)] [Em] [Em(add9)] [Em]
[Cadd9]A tawny [Cmaj7]gypsy girl, [Cadd9]sleeping [Cmaj7]blanketed by stars[Em(add9)] [Em] [Em(add9)] [Em]
Beneath the tilt-a-whirl, where we were coyly caught alone, all
[D]fumbling with your [C]blouse [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7] [Em(add9)] [Em]
[Em]Tell [F#]me [G]why [A]you [Bm]lied, and
[Am]what it is you [G]do to keep your [Cadd9)]eyes [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7]
all [D]shiny [C] [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7]
[D] And in the rollercoaster [C]din
[D] By the parachutes in [C]saddle shoes you [Em]break your shin
[D] But I have never seen two [C]eyes [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7]
so [Em(add9)]shiny [Em] [Em(add9)] [Em]
[Cadd9] [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7] [Em(add9)] [Em] [Em(add9)] [Em]
[D] And the sullen beery [C]swine
[D] Try to tangle you in [C]sullen beery [Em]balls of twine
[D] But have they ever seen two [C]eyes [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7]
so [Em(add9)]shiny [Em] [Em(add9)] [Em]
[Cadd9]The boys in [Cmaj7]denim vests, [Cadd9]smoking [Cmaj7]cigarettes between[Em(add9)] [Em] [Em(add9)] [Em]
Their bootblack fingertips, sweetly tipsy by the half-light
The [D]light and the ha[C]lf-light [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7] [Em(add9)] [Em] [Em(add9)] [Em]
[Em]Tell [F#]me [G]why [A]you [Bm]lied, and
[Am]what it is you [G]do to keep your [Cadd9)]eyes [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7]
all [D]shiny [C] [Cmaj7]
all [D]shiny [C] [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7]
all [C]shiny [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7]
all [Em(add9)]shiny [Em] [Em(add9)] [Em]
all [C]shiny [Cmaj7] [Cadd9] [Cmaj7]
all [Em(add9)]shiny [Em] [Em(add9)] [Em]
[Em] [F#] [G] [A] [Bm]

This is a such a beautiful song. Satisfying to play. :) (ps: I play it with capo on the 5th fret, but I sing high). The mp3 is on my site: www.supernaturalthings.net
