EmGod knows D/F#it's only tGime
Before i bAmreak the cChain in Emmy eyes
EmFear keeps you hD/F#iding at nGight

EmChances are D/F#slim we are rGight
But i'd nAmever thiCnk it any otEmherwise
EmSo we'll find the aD/F#nswers in tGime

Emand if you could pull that D/F#rope just a little hGigher
we would daAmngle alCone like a fEmirefly
Emso Jimmy i've D/F#heard the voice of GGod
and he whAmispered fCear is lEmogical

D/F#

This is the bonus track from the album Mean Everything to Nothing. "Jimmy, He

Whispers" is the only title I've seen it go by so I'm assuming that it's right.

Capo 8th fret

Em D/F# G

God knows you're on my mind

Am C Em

I can't try to tell him otherwise

Em D/F# G

God knows it's only time

Am C Em

Before i break the chain in my eyes

Em D/F# G

Fear keeps you hiding at night

Am C Em

and the creatures play ball outside

Em D/F# G

Chances are slim we are right

Am C Em

But i'd never think it any otherwise

Em D/F# G

So we'll find the answers in time

Am C Em

and the bodies pile up sky high

Em D/F# G

and ill sail this ship towards the sky

Am C Em

but ill end all alone on the other side

Em D/F# G

and if you could pull that rope just a little higher

Am C Em

we would dangle alone like a firefly

Em D/F# G

so Jimmy i've heard the voice of God

Am C Em

and he whispered fear is logical

Am C Em

and he said it's magic, wonderful

Am C Em

and he swears to him it's wonderful

Am C Em

and the lake you speak of is magical

Am C Em

so i skip stones on it, practical

Am C Em

and i make sure we're both wonderful

Am C Em

you're a brother and that's alright (x3)

Am C Em

we're brothers it makes it right

Am C Em

cuz his blood is so red in spite

Am C Em

of the way that our sharp teeth bite

Am C Em

oh the way that our sharp teeth bite

Am C Em

in each other during the night

Am C Em

with the creatures that play outside

Am C Em

we're the creatures that play outside

Em D/F# G

cuz jimmy i've heard the voice of God

Am C Em

and he whispered fear is logical

Am C Em

and the words that we heard aren't repeatable

Am C Em

with a thought that could kill comprehendable

Am C Em

and we're brothers and that's alright [x3]

Am C Em

yeah, we're brothers until we die
