SONG - A Spindle, A Darkness, A Fever, And A Necklace
Tablature by Matt - 03/19/01

Am7 Am7/F#
You turn on a spindle
G
You are so much looser now
C
But you're not explaining how
F# B7 E
You gained such new repose
Am7 Am7/F#
I touch the clasp of your locket
G
With its picture held
C
Some secret you wouldn't tell
F# B7 E
But let it choke your neck
Am7 Am7/F#
So we imagine a darkness
G
Where all shapes divide
C
Solids changing into light
F# B7 E
With a burst of heat so bright
E
Well fine
Am7 Am7/F# G C
Don't you do what I want you to
Am7 Am7/F# G C
Yeah, don't degrade yourself the way that I do
Am7 Am7/F# G C
'Cause you don't depend upon all the shit that I use
Am C D7 D7sus4 G
To make my moods immmmmmprove
Am7 Am7/F#
And near a sea of pianos
G
There were waves of chords
C
That crashed against the shore
F# B7 E
In one huge and pointless roar
Am7 Am7/F#
And there were girls bringing water
G
Like a dream they came
C
To cool the fever of my brain
F# B7 E
And soothe my burning throat
Am7 Am7/F#
And they made me a necklace
G
Hanging beads of sweat
C
On a string of my regrets
F# B7 E
And placed it 'round my neck
E
And they were singing
Am7 Am7/F# G C
Don't you do what you've wanted to
Am7 Am7/F# G C
Yeah, don't destroy yourself like those cowards do
Am7 Am7/F# G C
And maybe the sun keeps coming up 'cause it's gotten used to you
Am C D7 D7sus4 G
And your constant need forrrr proof
SONG - A Scale, A Mirror And Those Indifferent Clocks
Tablature by B.E. as interpreted by the pantieraider

---1--0----1---1--3---
---0--0----2---2--0---
---2--2----2---3--0---
---3--2----0---3--2---
------0--------1--3---
C
Here is a scale, weigh it out and you will find easily
Em
More than sufficient doubt that these colors you see
Am
Were picked in advance by some careful hand
F G
With an absolute concept of beauty
C
They are smeared and these blurs come in random order
Em
To color the eyes of your former lovers
Am F
Hers were green like July except when she cried
F G
They were red
C
Now I know a disease that these doctors can't treat
Em
You contract it the day you accept all you see
Am
Is a mirror and a mirror is all it can be
F G
A reflection of something we're missing
C
And language just happened, it was never planned
Em
And it's inadequate to describe where I am
Am
In the room of my house where the light has never been
F G
Waiting for this day to end
F G
And these clocks keep unwinding and completely ignore
Em Am
Everything that we hate or adore
F G
Once the page of a calendar is turned it's no more
Em Am
So tell me then, what was it for?
F G C
Oh tell me, what was it for?
- The Calendar Hung Itself

F#m
Does he kiss your eyelids in the morning
when you start to raise your head?
C#
And does he sing to you incessantly
from the place between your bed and wall?
F#m
Does he walk around all day at school
with his feet inside your shoes?
C#
Looking down every few steps
to pretend he walks with you?
F#m
Does he know that place below your neck
that is your favorite to be touched?
C#
And does he cry through broken sentences
like "I love you far too much"?
Bm E A D
Does he lay awake listening to your breath?
Bm E A D
Worried that you smoke too many cigarettes?
E F#m
Is he coughing now on a bathroom floor?
E F#m
For every speck of tile there are a thousand more
E
That you won't ever see
A E D E F#m C# F# C#
But must hold inside yourself eternally
F#m
I drug your ghost across the country
and we plotted out my death
C#
In every city, memories would whisper
"Here is where you rest"
F#m
I was determined in Chicago
But I dug my teeth into my knees
C#
And I settled for a telephone
Sang into your machine
F#m
"You are my sunshine,
C#
My only sunshine.
F#m
You are my sunshine
C#
My only sunshine"
Bm E A D
Bm E A D

E F#

F#m
I kissed a girl with a broken jaw
That her father gave to her
C#
She had eyes bright enough to burn me
They reminded me of yours
F#m
And in a story told she was a little girl
In a red-rouge, sun-bruised field
C#
And there were rows of ripe tomatoes
Where a secret was concealed
F#m
And it rose like thunder
C#
Clapped under our hands
F#m
And it stretched for centuries
C#
To a diary entry's end where I wrote
F#m
"You make me happy (WHAT?)
C#
When the skies are gray
F#m
You make me happy (WHAT?)
C#
When skies are gray and gray and gray"
Bm E A D
Well the clock's heart it hangs inside its open chest
Bm E A D
With hands stretched towards the calendar hanging itself
E F#m
But I will not weep for those dying days
E F#m
For all the ones who've left there are a few that stayed
E A E D
And they found me here and pulled me from the grass
E F#m E F#m E...
Where I was laid

F C G Am
Now and again it seems worse than it is
F C G
But mostly the view is accurate.
F C G Am
You see your breath in the air as you climb up the stairs
F C G
to that coffin you call your apartment.
Am E
And you sink in your chair
C G
Brush the snow from your hair
C G F
And drink the cold away
Am E
You are not really sure
C F
What you're doing this for
C G F
But you need something to fill up the days
Am E
A few more hours
C G Am
C G Am
F C G Am
There is a dream in my brain that just won't go away
F C G
It's been stuck there since it came a few nights ago
F C G Am
And I'm standing on a bridge in the town where I lived
F C G
As a kid with my mom and my brothers
Am E
And then the bridge disappears
C G
And I'm standing on air
C G F
With nothing holding me
Am E
And I hang like a star
C G
Fucking glow in the dark
C G F
For all those starving eyes to see
Am E
Like the ones we've wished on
C G
But now I'm confused
Am F
Is this death really you?
C G Am
And do these dreams have any meaning?
C G
No, no, I think it is more like a ghost
Am F
That's been following us both
C G Am
Something vague that we're not seein
F C D
Something more like a feeling
F G C

E - 022100
D - XX0232
F# A E F#
F# A
You follow the footsteps
E A
Echoes leading down a hall
F# A
To a room, there's music playing
E A
Tiny bells with moving parts
F# A
Here the shadows make things ugly
E A
An effect quite undesirable
F# A
The bold and yellow daylight
E A
Grows like ivy across the wall
D E A
And bounces off of the painted porcelain
D E A
Tiny dancing doll
D E A
Her body spins as she pirouettes again
D E F# A E A
The world suddenly seems small
F# A
On an off-white subtle morning
E A
You stretch your legs in the front seat
F# A
The road has made a vacuum
E A
Where our voices used to be
F# A
And you lay your head onto my shoulder
E A
Pour like water over me
D E A
So if I just exist for the next ten minutes of this
D E A
Drive that would be fine
D E A
And all the trees that line this curb would be
D E F# A E A
Rejoicing and alive
D E A
Soon all the joy that pours from everything makes
D E A
Fountains of your eyes
D E A
Because you finally understand the movement of a
D E F# A E A
Hand waving you goodbye
F# A E A

C#m
The fragile keep secrets gathered in pockets
G#
And they will sell them for nothing, a cheap watch or locket
E C#m
That kind of gold washes off
C#m
And the sad act like lepers, they stick to the shadows
G#
They long to ring bells of warning to tell of their coming
E C#m
So that the pure can shut their doors
C#m
And the angry are animals, senseless and savage
G#
They act without order in logical lapses
E C#m
They stain their mouths with blood
F#m C#m
So take my hand, this barren land is alive tonight
F#m C#m
Oh, the corn has grown stalks that form a wall to hide
F#m C#m
The wind carries sounds that I can't see from beyond that line
B A G#
Then the stalks begin to sway
C# B A G#
Oh, stay with me, Arienette
C#m
Until the wolves are away
A G# C#m A G#
YUP
C#m
Well the wicked are vultures, they bake in the canyons
G#
They circle in sunlight and wait for their victims
E C#m
To collapse and call to them
C#m
And the desperate are water, they'll run down forever
G#
As they soak into silence and end up together
E C#m
In a dark and distant, dark and distant place
F#m C#m
So don't leave me here with only mirrors watching me
F#m C#m
This house, it holds nothing but the memories
F#m C#m
And the moon, it leaves silver but never sleep
B A G#
And then the silver turns to gray
C# B A G#
So stay with me, Arienette
C#m
Until the wolves are away

C G Dm G
C G Am Am G G
C G
Tomorrow when I wake up I'm finding my brother
Dm G
And making him take me back down to the water
C G
That lake where we sailed and we laughed with our father
Am Am G
I will not desert him, I will not desert him
Dm G C Am
No matter how I may wish for a coffin so clean
Dm G C Am
Or these trees to undress all their leaves onto me
Dm G C Am
I put my face in the dirt and then finally I see
C G C
The sky that has been avoiding me
C G
I started this letter, I'm gonna send it to Ruba
Dm G
It will be blessed by her eyes on the gulf coast of Florida
C G
With her feet in the sand and one hand on her swimsuit
Am G
She will recite the prayer of my pen
C G
Saying, time take us forward, relief from this longing
Dm G
They can land that plane on my heart. I don't care
C G
Just give me November, the warmth of a whisper
Am G
In the freezing darkness of my room
Dm G C Am
But no matter what I would do in an attempt to replace
Dm G C Am
All these pills that I take trying to balance my brain
Dm G C Am
Seen the curious girl with that look on her face
C G C
So surprised she stares out from her display case

F#m Dmaj7 A Bm
F#m Dmaj7 A Bm
F#m Dmaj7 A Bm
The phone slips from a loose grip
F#m Dmaj7 A Bm
Words were missed, then some apology
F#m Dmaj7
I didn't want to tell you this
A Bm F#m
No, it's just some guy she's been hanging out with
Dmaj7 A Bm
I don't know, the past couple weeks, I guess
F#m Dmaj7
Thank you and hang up the phone
A Bm
Let the funeral start, hear the casket close
F#m Dmaj7 A Bm
Let's pin split-black ribbon to your overcoat
F#m Dmaj7 A
The laughter pours from under doors in this house
Bm F#m
I don't understand that sound no more
Dmaj7 A Bm
Seems artificial like a TV set
Bm
Well Haligh Haligh Haligh Haligh
A
This weight, it must be satisfied
G
You offer only one reply
A
You know not what you do
Bm
But you tear and tear your hair from roots
A
From that same head you have twice removed
G
Now a lock of hair you said would prove
A
Our love would never die, well hahaha
Bm
F#m Dmaj7
I remember everything
A Bm
The words we spoke on freezing South Street
F#m Dmaj7 A Bm
And all those mornings watching you get ready for school
F#m Dmaj7
You combed your hair inside that mirror
A Bm
The one you painted blue and glued with jewelry tears
F#m Dmaj7 A Bm
Something about those bright colors would always make you feel better
F#m Dmaj7
But now we speak with ruined tongues
A Bm
And the words we say aren't meant for anyone
F#m Dmaj7 A Bm
It's just a mumbled sentence to a passing acquaintance but there was once you
F#m Dmaj7
You said you hate my suffering
A Bm
And you understood and you'd take care of me
F#m Dmaj7 A Bm
You'd would always be there, well where are you now?
Bm
Haligh, Haligh, Haligh, Haligh
A
The plans were never finalized
G
But left to hang like yarn and twine
A
Dangling before my eyes
Bm
As you tear and tear your hair from roots
A
From that same head that you have twice removed
G
Now a lock of hair you said would prove
A
Our love would never die
Bm
And I sing and sing of awful things
A
The pleasure that my sadness brings
G
And my fingers press onto the strings
A
Yet another clumsy chord
Bm
Haligh, Haligh, an awful lie
A
This weight will now be satisfied
G
I'm gonna give you only one reply
A
I know not who I am
Bm
But I talk in the mirror
A
To the stranger that appears
G
Our conversations are circles
G
Always one sided
A
Nothing is clear
Bm
Except we keep coming back
A
To this meaning that I lack
G
He says the choices were given
G
Now you must live them
A
Or just not live
Bm
But do you want that?

G Bm Am
At the center of the world there's a statue of a girl
C D G
She is standing near a well with a bucket bare and dry
Bm Am
I went and looked her in the eyes and she turned me into sand
C D G
This clumsy form that I despise, it scattered easy in her hand
Bm Am
It came to rest upon a beach with a million others there
C D G
We sat and waited for the sea to stretch out so that we could disappear
Bm Am
Into the endlessness of blue into the horror of the truth
C D Em
See, we are far less than we knew, yeah, we are far less than we knew
Em C
But we knew what we could taste
Em
Girls found honey to drench our hands
B
The men cut marble to mark our graves
B G
Said we'll need something to remind us of
B
All the sweetness that has passed through us
Em
The priests dressed children for a choir
B
But found no joy in what was sung
B C D D G
The funeral had begun
G Bm Am
In the middle of the day when you drive home to your place
C D G
From that job that makes you sleep back to the thoughts that keep you awake
Bm Am
Long after night has come to claim any light that still remains
C D G
In the corner of the frame that you put around her face
Bm
Two pills just weren't enough
Am
The alarm clock's going off but you're not waking up
C D
This isnt happening happening happening happening happening
G
It is

Am G#?
Sunrise, sunset
Am G#?
Sunrise, sunset
Am G#? Am G#?
Swiftly go the days
Am G#?
Sunrise, sunset
Am G#?
You wake up, then you undress
Am G#? Am G#?
It always is the same
Am G#?
A sunrise and the sun sets
Am G#?
You are lying while you confess
Am G#? Am G#?
Keep trying to explain
Am G#?
A sunrise and the sun sets
Am G#?
You realize, then you forget
Am G#? Am G#?
What you have been trying to retain
E
But everybody knows
E
It's all about the things
E E Am G#? Am G#?
That get stuck inside of your head
E
Like the songs your roommate sings
E
Or a vision of her body
E Am
As she stretches out on your bed
G#? Am G#?
And she raised her hands in the air
Am G#? Am G#?
Asked you, when was the last time you looked in the mirror?
Am G#? Am G#?
'Cause you have changed
Am G#? Am G#?
Yeah, you've changed
Am G#?
Sunrise, the sun sets
Am G#?
You are hopeful and then you regret
Am G#? Am G#?
The circle never breaks
Am G#?
With a sunrise and sunset
Am G#?
There's a change of heart or address
Am G#? Am G#?
Is there nothing that remains?
Am G#?
For a sunrise or a sunset
Am G#?
You're manic or you're depressed
Am G#? Am G#?
Will you ever feel okay?
Am G#?
For a sunrise or a sunset
Am G#?
Your lover is an actress
Am G#? Am G#?
Did you really think she'd stay?
Am G#?
For a sunrise or a sunset
Am G#?
You're either coming or you just left
Am G#? Am G#?
But you're always on the way
Am G#?
Towards a sunrise or a sunset
Am G#?
A scribble or a sonnet
Am G#?
They are really just the same
Am G#?
To the sunrise or a sunset
Am G#?
The master and his servant
Am G#? Am G#?
Have exactly the same fate
Am G#?
It's a sunrise and a sunset
Am G#?
From a cradle to a casket
Am G#? Am G#?
There is no way to escape
Am G#?
The sunrise and the sunset
Am G#?
Hold your sadness like a puppet
Am G#? Am G#?
Keep putting on the play
E
But everything you do
E
Is leading to the point
E Am G#? Am G#?
Where you just won't know what to do
E
And at that moment you may laugh
E
But there is someone there
E Am
Who will be laughing louder than you
G#?
So it's true
Am G#?
The trick is complete
Am G#? Am G#?
You've become everything you said you never would be
Am G#? Am G#?
You're a fool
Am G#? Am G#?
You're a fool
Am G#?
Sunrise, sunset
Am G#?
Sunrise, sunset
Am G#? Am G#?
The sunrise and the sun sets
Am G#?
Sunrise, sunset
Am G#?
Sunrise, the sun sets
Am G#? Am G#?
The sunrise, the sun sets
Am G#?
Sunrise, sunset
Am G#?
Go home to your apartment
Am G#? Am G#?
Put the cassette in the tape deck
Am G#? Am G#? Am G#? Am G#?
And let that fever play
Am G#?
Sunrise, sunset
Am G#?
Where are you Arienette?
Am G#?
Am G#?

Where are you Arienette?
SONG - An Attempt To Tip The Scales
Tablature by Clark Vogeler - 03/19/01
intro: D F#m G A
D F#m G A
Did you expect it all to stop at the wave of your hand?
D F#m G A
Like the sun is just gonna drop if it's night you demand?
D F#m G A
Well, in the dark we are just air so the house might dissolve
D F#m G A
Once we're gone, who's gonna care if we were ever here at all?
G A F#m
Well, summer's gonna come, it's gonna cloud our eyes again
G A
No need to focus when there's nothing that's worth seeing
D F#m G A
So we trade liquor for blood in an attempt to tip the scales
D F#m G A
I think you lost what you loved in that mess of details
F#m G
They seemed so important at the time but now you can't even recall
F#m G A
Any of the names, faces, or lines, it's more the feeling of it all
G A
Well, winter's gonna end, it's gonna clean these veins again
F#m G A
So close to dying that I finally can start living
D F#m G A (repeat) end on F#m

Start with fingerpicking E
E F#m
There is a middle-aged woman, she's dragging her feet
G#m F#m
She carries baskets of clothes to a laundromat
E F#m
While the Mexican children kick rocks into the street
G#m F#m
And they laugh in a language I don't understand
A E
But I love them... why do I love them?
E F#m
So the neighborhood's dimming, I smoke on the porch
G#m F#m
Watch the people as they pass enclosed inside their cars
E F#m
And on their faces just anger or disappointment
G#m F#m
I start wishing there was something I could offer them
A E
A consolation... what could I offer them?
E F#m
And they are sad in their suburbs, robots water the lawn
G#m F#m
And everything they touch gets dusted spotless
E F#m
And so they start to believe they've not touched anything at all
G#m F#m
And the cars in the driveway only multiply
E F#m
They are lost in their houses, I've heard them sing in the shower
G#m F#m
Making speeches to their sister on the telephone
E F#m
Saying you come home, you come here, don't stay so far away from me
G#m F#m
This weather has me wanting love more tangible
A E
Something I can hold... it's getting cold
F#m E B A
I say hold up our fists to a flame in the sky
F#m E B A
To block out the light that's reaching for our eyes
E A E
'Cause it... 'cause it would blind us, yeah it will blind us
E F#m
Well I've locked my actions in the grooves of routine
G#m F#m
So I may never be free of this apathy
E F#m
But I wait for a letter that's coming to me
G#m F#m
She sends me pictures of the ocean in an envelope
E
So there still is hope, yes, I can be healed
F#m
There is someone looking for what I've concealed
G#m
In my secret drawer, in my pockets deep
F#m
You will find the reasons that I can't sleep
A E
And you will still want me... but will you still want me?
A E
Will you still want me?
F#m E B A
Well, I say come for the week, you can sleep in my bed
F#m E B A
And pass through my life like a dream through my head
E A E
It will... it will be easy, I'll make it easy
E F#m
But all I have for the moment is a song to pass the time
G#m F#m
A melody to keep me from worrying
E F#m
Some simple progression to keep my fingers busy
G#m F#m
And words that are sure to come back to me
A E
And they'll be laughing... and they'll be laughing
A E
My mediocrity
A E
My mediocrity
A E A E...
