[Verse 1]
[F#m]Diseased heat
[D]August on the[E] one o o[G]ne
[Bm]Let [A]me up
[F#m]The pale moon
[D]Offers no con[E]solatio[G]ns
Would you [Bm]let [A]me u[F#m]p?
Mosquitoes [D]fat with our [E]marrow[G]
Ebb and [Bm]flow through the [A]gumbo[F#m]
This humid [D]bouillon [E]a cesspool
[Abm]Stop
Won't someone please
[Gm]let me u[G]p?[A]
We're buoyed in
Atop the [D]mercury

From a cell of the surf, this universe

I once had [D]gills but [E]they closed [G]up

[Abm]Stop
Stop
Won't someone just [G]let [Gm]me up?
[G]Oh[A]
We don't exist
[D]In an instant
[Dsus4]Let me up[G][A][D]
There's a hole in the floor
As black as my momma's womb
Those were the days
Won't you [Asus4]let me up[F#m]?[Bm]
I can't stop [G]thinking [Gm]of the time
[Abm]I was swallowed in the brine
Won't you [G]let me up?
Let me up
Mama, the [A]planet is a [Bm]placenta
[D]Pull the plug
Let the [F#m]heavens rise [Bm]above
Won't [G]you let me [Gm]up?[G]

Let me [A]up[Gm][A]
[D]Let me [A]up
[Bm]Let [A]me u[Edim]p[F#m][Bm]
I can't stop [Gm]dreaming of the day
I got swal[Abm]lowed into space
[Gm]Let me up
Let me up
[F#m]Let me up
[D]Let me up
[C#m]Let me up
[Abm]I'm drowning in the egg
