Thank you, Hildy.
How are you?
You're okay, good.
_ [Ebm] Okay, super.
[Eb] _ _ _
I met Hildy in _ _ _ 1994 _ [C] in Frankfurt,
wasn't it?
In the old, [Dm] old part of the city many years ago.
[G] Anyway, _ I had an email _ [N] a few
months ago actually from Thomas, who's here somewhere.
He's with his girl, Heike.
Is it
_ _ _ you?
And I believe he's going to ask you to marry him. _ _ _ _ _
That's pretty cool, huh? _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] What
do you think? _ _ _
I think that means yes.
Congratulations. _ _
[N] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ So _ _ I'm going to have to play at your wedding
now.
You realize that, don't you?
In the church.
_ _ I quite like that.
I've done that a couple
of times in my life.
It's good fun.
_ _ _ [B] Okay, so I'd like to play a_
It was a special
request [Abm] actually from Thomas.
It is an old and very wonderful [Bb] Genesis [B] song from the early
Peter Gabriel years.
It's a song called Carpet [Dbm] Crawlers.
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] There's lands where I'm from [Eb] and naked feet.
[Ab] _ _ _ [Fm] The world's soft and warm.
_ It [C] gives off some
kind of heat.
_ _ [Cm] A _
[Db] _ [Cm] salamander's [Db] space.
[Cm] Into flame [Db] to be [Cm] destroyed.
[Db] _ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ Imaginary creatures
_ [Ab] are trapped in birth _ _ until you [Eb] are _ [Ab] alive. _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [D] The fleas cling to the golden fleece, [C] _
hoping
they'll find _ peace.
[Cm] It's _ [Db] hard [Cm] and just.
[Db] _ _
[Cm] I [Db] crawled until you [Cm] lied.
[Db] _
[Bbm] There's no hiding
in memory.
[Db] There's no home _ _ to be found.
_ The crawlers cover the [Ebm] floor.
_ In your red, ochre
[Db] _ condo, for my second sight of [Ebm] people.
_ Made my life better than [Db] before.
_ _ They're moving
[Ebm] their time _ through a heavy wood [Db] window.
_ With the needles I'm swinging [Ebm] _ and closing your
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ You've got to get in to get out.
_ [Gb] _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ You've got to get in to get out.
_ [Gb] _
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
You've got to get in
[B] _ _ to [Ebm] get out.
_ [Db] _ _ _ _
There's only one thing I [Ebm] wish. _
In the face of [Db] necessity. _
In the top woods in the [Ebm] city. _
Where the chain is [Db] set so they. _
Like a bullet's bite [Ebm] into my neck.
It takes losing [Db] every three. _
They are pulled up [Ebm] by the _ night.
They'll believe and go free.
[Fm] The carpet _ _ crawls.
_ Keep their
_ _ _ _ [Ab] corners. _
You've got to get in to [Gb] get out. _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
You've got to get in to get _ out.
[Gb] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ You've got
to get in [B] to _ _ [Ebm] get out.
_ [Db] _ _ _
Like from super [Ebm] marionette.
I held you in cribs at night.
_ [Db] And those lies they're smooth
This match is giggling [Ebm] with that body's glowing bright
_ _ [Db] Through the tower of this beast
[Ebm] It's reflecting the light
_ [Db] It's the bottom of the stage
_ And [Ebm] _ the spiders have a side
[Fm] Oh, carpet _ _ _ crawlers
Keep their _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] callers _
You gotta get in to get out of _
[Gb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ You gotta get in to [Gb] get out _ _

_ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ You gotta get in to get out
Oh, it's no mannequin
_ [Ebm] With shaggy skin and fears of time
_ [Db] The needy girl-bob lift up their pitchers
[Ebm] _ They carry all they lack
_ [Db] All the goodies can kill
_ _ [Ebm] Cheetah _ out through the cracks
_ _ [Db] And the chick of the chicks
_ Stickleback, [Ebm] back, back _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Fm] _ Carpet _ crawlers
_ _ Keep their _ caller
[Ab] _ You _ _ gotta get in to [Gb] get out _
Oh, _ oh, [Ab] oh, oh _
