this song is simple as pie, chord-wise. if you're familiar with the song (which I assume you are, because if you have an interest in neutral milk hotel you most likely listen to them obsessively) then this is cake. enjoy. all I perceive is wasted and broken silvery streams, sacred when spoken slam into me and into the ditch of de- bris... and you smoke in the park and sleep in the greenery everyone barks and they are all still believing, to tear out your heart would send all your secrets to me... but I let you down, and swollen and small is where you'll find me now, with that silver stripping off from my tongue you're tearing out, and you'll never hear me talk... <>
