Jimmy He Whispers
Manchester Orchestra
Text File
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
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
