Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Sucking on a [D]tap that never dries,
Could you take it right between
your [A]eyes?[Gm]
[G]Bending [F#m]blood, bending blood,
The [Em]father stood, [A]the fathers hood.
Like [D]shadows of an [C]acid bird,
[D]That [Bm]etched her way [D]across the field,
[F]So [G]long [D]ago.
Walking through the field in
the summer weeks,
Look at all the creatures
round your [A]feet.[G]
Pumping [F#m]blood, pumping blood,
The [Em]mother gave, the [A]mother saves,
White [D]ointment of an [C]acid kiss,
That [Bm]burned upon the [D]lips she gave you,
[Gm]So long ag[D]o, s[C]o lo[Gm]ng a[A]go.
[G]Fun in the sun, locked in the blood stream,
[A]Shallow bodies writhing on the[G] grass.
Fun in the sun[Gm],
hair in the slip [G]stream,[A]
Tadpoles shooting through a
hollow [G]glass.[D]
Cutting out a silhoutte between,
Everything is older than it [A]seems,
[G]Son of blo[F#m]od, son of blood,
The [Em]baby [G]shakes, the [A]baby snakes,
Who [D]crawled across the [C]acid ring
And [Bm]flicker from [A]your corpuscles,
[F]One [G]sunny [A]day, [D]one[Gm] sunny day[G],[A]
[G]Fun in the sun[Gm],
[G]eve[Gm]ryone kno[G]ws it,[A]
We could be as mellow as the [D]hay.[G]
Fun in the sun[Gm], everyone blows it,[A]
They grow up and instantly [G]decay.
Like [D]shadows of an [C]acid [D]bird
[C]That etc[Bm]hed her way acr[D]oss the field
[Gm]So l[G]ong ag[D]o.[F][G]
