Verve Pipe - Real Chords

[Verse 1]
                C#m
My sister had a nursery rhyme
       F#
Set of figurines
                   A         E
She'd often let me play with them
                            F#
I'd set 'em up in different scenes
              C#m              F#
Fifty plastic army men, led by superman
                       A      E
Destroyed the ranks of mother goose
 
Mary and her little
 
[Chorus]
 
Am         E
Lamb slips away and catches
Am             E
Sister getting real
          D               A
And I can too, as long as I don't
       E
Make a sound
 
[Verse 2]
 
C#m                             F#
When we were real we were in love
 
With everyone and everything
A    E                 F#
I guess it was the beauty of
C#m
Bluebird clears his throat of phlegm
    F#
And static singing operatic
A       E
Evening comes, and the butterflies are
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
Am           E               Am         E
Bats eat the spider that had saddled up beside her
        D                A                E
And the dish, his lovin' spoon were never found
    Am         E
And I'm taking flight seeking relief
Am          E               D
The lure of handkerchief so white
           A                 E
I chase it straight into the ground
 
 
[Solo]
 
C#m F# A E
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am         E
Lamb slips away and catches
Am             E
Sister getting real
          D               A
And I can too, as long as I don't
       E
Make a sound
 
    Am         E
And I'm taking flight seeking relief
Am          E               D
The lure of handkerchief so white
           A                 E
I chase it straight into the ground
