THE CARPET CRAWLERS
[Intro]
Emaj7 Amaj7 Emaj7 Amaj7
There is lambswool under my naked feet
F#m6
The wool is soft and warm,
C#
Gives off some kind of heat
C#m Dmaj7 C#m Dmaj7 C#m Dmaj7 C#m Dmaj7
A salamander scurries into flame to be destroyed
B5 Dmaj7 B5 Dmaj7 Amaj7
Imaginary creatures are trapped in birth
Emaj7 Amaj7 Emaj7 Amaj7
On celluloid
F#m6
The fleas cling to the golden fleece,
C#
Hoping they'll find peace
C#m Dmaj7 C#m Dmaj7 C#m Dmaj7 C#m Dmaj7
Each thought and gesture are caught in cellu-loid
Dmaj7 Bm Dmaj7 Bm
There's no hi - ding in my memory
A7sus4 A7 A7sus4 A7 [ D ]
There's no room to avoid
[Verse]
D Em
The crawlers cover the floor
D
In the red ochre corridor
Em
For my second sight of people
D
They've more lifeblood than before
Em D
They're moving in time to a heavy wooden door
Em
Where the needle's eye is winking, closing in on the poor
[Chorus]
F#m
The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
A G
We've got to get in to get out
A G
We've got to get in to get out
D C Em/B D
We've got to get in to get out
[Verse]
D Em D
There's only one direction in the faces that I see
Em
It's upward to the ceiling
D
Where the chamber's said to be
Em
Like the forest fight for sunlight,
D
That takes root in every tree
Em
They are pulled up by the magnet, believing they're free
[Chorus]
F#m
The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
A G
We've got to get in to get out
A G
We've got to get in to get out
D C Em/B D
We've got to get in to get out
[Verse]
D Em
Mild mannered supermen are held in kryptonite,
D
And the wise and foolish virgins giggle
Em
With their bodies glowing bright
D Em
Through a door a harvest feast is lit by candlelight;
D Em
It's the bottom of a staircase that spirals out of sight
[Chorus]
F#m
The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
A G
We've got to get in to get out
A G
We've got to get in to get out
D C Em/B D
We've got to get in to get out
[Verse]
D Em
The porcelain manikin with shattered skin fears attack
D
And the eager pack lift up their pitchers
Em
They carry all they lack
D Em
The liquid has congealed, which has seeped out through the crack,
D | Em |
And the tickler takes his stickleback
[Chorus]
F#m
The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
A G
We've got to get in to get out
A G
We've got to get in to get out
D C Em/B D
We've got to get in to get out
[Interlude]
D Em [ D ]
We've got to get out, we've got to get in to get out
D Em [ D ]
We've got to get out, we've got to get in to get out
D Em [ D ]
We've got to get out, we've got to get in to get out
D Em [ F#m ]
We've got to get out, we've got to get in to get out
[Chorus]
F#m
The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
A G
We've got to get in to get out
A G
We've got to get in to get out
D C Em/B D
We've got to get in to get out
