Acid Bird

D
Sucking on a tap that never dries
                                     A
Could you take it right between your eyes
G              F#
Bending blood, bending blood
Em                A
The father stood, the father's hood
D                 C              Bm             D
Like shadow on an acid bird that etched her way across a field
F  G    D
So long ago

[Verse 2]
D
Walking through the fields in summer heat
                                      A
Look at all the creatures 'round your feet
G              F#
Pumping blood, pumping blood
Em                 A
The mother's gaze, the mother gave
D                    C              Bm              D
White ointment of an acid kiss that burned upon the lips she gave you
G       D    C  G    A
So long ago, so long ago

[Chorus]
G
Fun in the sun, luck in the bloodstream
A                              G
Shallow bodies writhing on the grass
G
Fun in the sun, hair in the slipstream
A                                  G
Tadpoles shooting through a hollow glass

[Verse 3]
D
Cutting out a silhouette in dreams
                            A
Everything is older than it seems
G             F#
Son of blood, son of blood
Em               A
The baby shakes, the baby snakes
D                     C               Bm                D
That crawl across the acid rings that flicker from your corpuscles
F   G     D    G         A
One sunny day, one sunny day

[Chorus]
G
Fun in the sun everyone knows it
A                              G
They could be as mellow as the hay
G
Fun in the sun everyone blows it
A                               G
They grow up and instantly turn grey

D                 C              Bm             D
Like shadow of an acid bird that etched its way across a field
F  G    D    G       D
So long ago, so long ago
