Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

A|-9+----------------------------------|

Feel the matress tense beneath me

like the muscle of nonsleepy;

Feathers flexing will defeat me,

and it vexes me completely.

CHORD REFERENCE (use these, not the ones UG puts as links

above the lyrics):

Verses

 And the hexes heat covertly

 like a slow low-flying turkey

 like a Texan drying jerky

 but his meaty mitts can't hurt me

 With my steely will compounded

 in a mighty mound that's hounded

 by the snap your steel string sounded,

 just before your snores unwound it.

 And in store are dreams so daring

 that the night can't stop from staring.

 I'll swim sweetly as a herring

 through the ether, not despairing.

 Go to sleep, you stunning sky;

 gently creep cunning by:

 A quiet hum is amplified

 by your thumb, that you suck dry.

 Hundred raging waters snare the lonely sigh.

 Hold your breath and clasp at Cassiopiea.

 Hundred raging waters snare the lonely sigh.

 Hold your breath and clasp at Cassiopiea.

 Cassiopeia.

Cassiopeia!

 Ohhhh....Cassiopeia!
