Phantom Limb The Shins
Capo 1
[G]Foals in winter c[C]oats
White girls of the N[Am]orth,
[F]File past one, f[C]ive and one,
They are the fa[C]bled lambs
a Sun[D]day ham,
the ancient s[Am]now
And they could fl[G]oat above the gr[C]ass
in circles if t[G]hey tried
A la[F]tent power I kn[C]ow they hide
To keep some h[C]ope alive
that a g[D]irl like I
could ever [Am]try,
Could ever t[G]ry
So [Em]we just skirt the hallway s[D]ides
A phantom and a f[Em]ly
[E]Follow the l[C]ines and wonder w[D]hy
There's no connection
[G]A week of rolling e[C]yes,
and cheap shots from the t[Am]rite,
[F]And we're off to Nemarca's porch a[C]gain,
Another aft[C]ernoon
with the goa[D]thead tunes,
And pi[Am]lfered booze.

We wander thr[G]ough her mamma's hou[C]se
The milk from the w[G]indow lights
Family po[F]rtrait circa '[C]95
This is that f[C]oreign land
of the s[D]prayed-on tans
And it all feels f[Am]ine
Be it silk or [G]slime
[Em]So, when they tap our Monday he[D]ads
To zombie-walk in [Em]our stead,
[E]This town seems [C]hardly worth our t[D]ime
And w[Em]e'll no lo[C]nger memorize or rh[D]yme,
Too far along in our cl[Em]imb
Stepping ov[E]er what now to[C]wers to the sk[D]y,
With no connection
[G]Oooh w[C]aooooooo waooooo[D]oo
(repeat 4x)
So [Em]when they tap our Sunday he[D]ads
To zombie-walk in[Em] our stead,
T[E]his town seems h[C]ardly worth our ti[D]me
And [Em]we'll no lo[C]nger memorize or rh[D]yme,
Too far along in our cr[Em]ime,
Stepping ov[E]er what now t[C]owers to the s[D]ky,
With no connection
[G]Oooh w[C]aooooooo waooooo[D]oo
(repeat to fade 8x)
