Chord Andrew Bird Fiery Crash Ukulele Versi 1

Fiery Crash from Armchair Acrophya.




Intro: A (repeated strumming) to E (let ring)

With this little pattern on lead (on G sting) 7-9-10-9



A
turnstiles on mezzanine
jet ways and dramamine fiends
and x-ray machines
D
you were hurling through space
g-forces twisting your face
A
breeding superstition
E
a fatal premonition
D
you know you got to envision
A
the fiery crash

E D
oh, close your eyes and you wake up
A
face stuck to a vinyl settee
E D
oh, the line was starting to break up
A
just as you were starting to say
(pause then riff)
something apropos, i don't know.

riff (on G string) - 6-4-6-4-2-6-4-2

Interlude: Verse chords

A
beige tiles and magazines
lou dobbs and the cnn team
turn on every monitor screen
D
you were caught in the crossfire
where every human face has you
reaching for your mace so it's
A
kind of an imposition
a fatal premonition

E D
to save our lives you've got to envision
E D
to save all our lives you've got to envision
E D
and to save all our lives you've got to envision
A
the fiery crash
D A
it's just a formality
D A
why must i explain?
D A
just a nod to mortality
E (let ring)
before you get on
A
before you get on a plane.

E D
oh, close your eyes and you wake up
A
face stuck to a vinyl settee
E D
oh, the line was starting to break up
A
what was that you were going to say?
