Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Version1
90

Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Bloody  sheets
Tenderly  she moves  me
 An opera  star
Dying  hard for love
 You say  I'm hurt
I  will take your word
 (chords same as verse 1)
 Leather pants
 Happiness
 A hundred dollars
 Buy success
 Hanging with your fashionable whores
 And I'm a wounded bird
 I will take your word
You  and tom (you and tom)
To  the prom (to the prom)
Camel  dick (camel dick)
Crucifix  (crucifix)
Everyone's  the same  and on and on
Emerging  from the football  stands
Clinging  to his broken  hand
 It's over  I have seen  it all before
 (chords same as verse 3)
 Nakedness (nakedness)
 A flying lesson
 Tattered dress
 Sunburned chest
 You will pay for your excessive charm
 With a boy who knows
 Less than he thinks
 Drinks up his expensive drinks
 Be careful with the details of the war
 (repeat C F to fade)
 Notes:
 - in verse 1, each chord is strummed only once. in the other 3 verses a standard
 strumming pattern is used.
 - in case you're really old school and double up on the guitar and harmonica, the
 harmonica chord played repeatedly at the end is just blowing into holes 6&7
 simultaneously on a standard C harp
