Jeremy Chords

(ver. 1)
Magnetic Fields
          Bb                             Eb
We were young like the future  We were young and always wrong
          Bb                             Eb
We were young like our country, learning old ways to be young

Bb     Ab          Eb        Bb       Ab   Eb     Bb
Random driving around with you in my dilapidated car

      Ab       Eb    Bb     Ab       Eb         F
like Isadora Duncan II in impossibly long white scarves 

played after "scarves" with syncopation:
E---8-----8--8-----8-----8-----8-----8----
B--10-----8-10----11----10-----8----10----
G--10----10-10----10----10----10----10----
D--10----10-10----10----10----10----10----

Bb             F        Cm            Eb
Autumn leaves, diaries, Tennessee and Jeremy  
Bb             F        Cm          Eb
Suddenly, willow trees, memories of Jeremy.  


          Bb                             Eb
Like a Galapagos turtle we grow old and stay that way, 
          Bb                             Eb
build a nest in the sand dunes, lay our eggs and walk away  
Bb     Ab          Eb        Bb       Ab   Eb     Bb
I was writing our dreams down, making maps of an unseen plane; 
      Ab       Eb    Bb     Ab       Eb         F
and I noticed anomalies that you'd rather not see explained.

Bb             F        Cm            Eb
Autumn leaves, diaries, Tennessee and Jeremy  
Bb             F        Cm          Eb
Suddenly, willow trees, memories of Jeremy.  

   Bb     F      Eb           F             
We drove, canopy down, in the scalding rain

Bb                  Ab        F      
     on the one day we were   young  

Cm                                   F
    The house we bought was really a lake  

Cm                            F
    Otters scampered down the halls
  
Cm                               F         Eb
    There were whirlpools in the floor and sails 
 
        Bb                          Eb
You're alone and it's over  You're alone with your gun
        Bb                            Eb
You're alone  From now on you're all alone and you're not young.
