The World Is Alive

Ezra Furman And The Harpoons

Text File

It's a simple song, so I'll let you work out the strumming. The timings aren't 100% accurate, I've mostly timed the chords by the vocal line. Ezra plays the chords as follows, in standard tuning: G: 320033 C/G: 332010 (though don't stress the low G too much) Em: 022000 G/B: x20033 D/A: x00232 (I know you probably just think of this as a D chord, but technically it's D/A) G C/G x 4 G C/G There is life on this planet Em And I know because I've seen it G/B D/A G It is waiting in the slimiest of Saturday nights C/G There's a white haunted moon Em Hanging over the lagoon G/B D/A C/G It was made for a moment just such as this G D/A C/G There is love in the eyes of the birds and bees G D/A C/G There are plastic bags in suburban trees Em Keep your eyes open all the time D/A C/G And I think you'll find there's no place to hide Am D/A And the world is alive (Between the verses, strum a few times with all the strings muted with your left hand) G C/G There are sailors on the ocean Em Little kids with crazy notions G/B D And their heads are gonna spin like a tornado G C/G There's a Bible by the TV Em And the curtains blowing freely G/B D G In this hotel room make my heart do flips C\G G D C/G There's a bush that burns but is not consumed G D C/G There's a glass of milk in an empty room Em There's a song at the heart of it all D C/G And we all try hard just to write it down Am D But you can't write it down G C/G x4 End on G
