Pharmacist

[Bm]   [G]   [D]   [A]

The [Bm]cold, cold harbor I went swimming in
[G]Elegant, so elegant
It'd not [D]be so bad to be buried beneath
The warmth of [A]your leather jacket

Are you a [Bm]pelican a penguin
Or a [G]partridge in a tree?
Do you ad[D]here to the absolute
Or preach [A]possibility?

Give me a [G]pill to pop
I need a pharmacist
I need a [D]surgeon for my mind
There's all [G]these images and video footage
Stuck in [D]rapid, rapid rewi[A]nd

Wasn't [Bm]it these streets
Wasn't it this church
We [G]walked past in the rain
Why are [D]these police looking so hurt
Are they af[A]raid of a parade?

Oh my [Bm]forehead pressed in the pillowcase
My [G]ears are full of bells
Is that an [D]elephant in the old staircase?
Are those [A]sirens wishing me well?

Give me a [G]pill to pop
I need a pharmacist
I need a [D]surgeon for my mind
There's all [G]these images and video footage
Stuck in [D]rapid, rapid rewi[A]nd

[Bm] - [G] - [D] - [A] [x2]

I heard a [Bm]whispered cure; steam from a lava bed
With the [G]sea boiling all around
Beneath a [D]piano bench full of written words
In a [A]junkyard I had found

There was a [Bm]music box a dancer on top
And I [G]wound it up so tight
That the [D]spring snapped and her head fell off
In a ka[A]leidoscope of light

When they come [Bm]in, they'll come in guns blazing
Isn't [G]that what they always say they'll do?
I awake [D]tired and I'm always strangling
My heart ob[A]sidian for you

There is [Bm]darkness round my neck
My heart is [G]brass and melting quick
I need the [D]forgiveness of the ignorant
But there's [A]no simple cure or answer for it

Give me a [G]pill to pop
I need a pharmacist
I need a [D]surgeon for my mind
There's all [G]these images and video footage
Stuck in [D]rapid rewind

Give me a [G]pill to pop
I need a pharmacist
I need a [D]surgeon for my mind
There's all [G]these images and video footage
Stuck in [D]rapid, rapid rewi[A]nd
