Chords for Young the Giant: The Making Of Mind Over Matter

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ I've been waiting many [F] hours _ by the [E] silent moon
[B] _ _ _
And in the wild the [F] jungle flower, _ [B] your toxic _ perfume _
_ _ Tell my _ [F] friends I'm [B] gone, it's true _ _ I've passed on now _
[E] To the [E] eyes of a dark [B] lost blue
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [G] _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [B] _ It was just perseverance and writing and keeping at it.
_ [D] So we've been going [E] from part_
we take three, correct?
So we'll go from part 11?
The first song that we wrote after the writer's block was called Line Over Matter
[Eb] and I think it's a triumph [E] over that writer's block period that we [G] had. _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] Once that hurdle [G] was crossed, we felt very free to express ourselves in different ways.
For this record it's crazy, everyone's kind of switching [B] around instruments and like_
It's nice.
[E] It's good to feel uncomfortable for a little bit. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ It's too [F] tinny, right?
_ In the context of the song, it would just get completely lost.
[E] Yeah.
Do you like the distorted [C] organ sound?
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ [C]
That could be a cool layer on top of it. Got it. _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ [Am] A lot of songs are really dark, [F] about being completely [C] lost in your own head.
And [F] then there are other [G] more joyous songs.
Girl [C] you know when you're beat out my drum
[Em] Means you're beat out your heart
[Am] You know I couldn't love [F] any other, any other
[G] This is where I come from
This is where I [Em]
belong
[Am] With the beat of your drum
[F] Not any _ other
[C] I would say that we have [Em] definitely grown as players just through sheer exposure.
_ [A] Spending time [C] driving around the country [Bb] or traveling and just playing [C] every single night.
This album is definitely_
we take more risks as a unit [Em] and it's not as safe.
[Am] It's not completely done yet.
I feel like this [Dm] is almost_
_ [Ab] [C] You're going into the most narrow part of the town.
It's like the very end.
This is where I come from
[Em] This is where I belong
[Am] With the beat of your drum
[F] Not any _ other
_ _ [Dm] Feel [C] the force [G] of time
_ Weighing down my mind
_ Tears you cried _
Screaming at the sky _ Come outside
The rays are shining _ [C] bright
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [N] _ My _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [C] _
love, my love
Does it [E] matter to [A] any of us
[C] Don't change the subject
[E] I'm heavy on [A] your love
[C] _
I missed that train
New [Em] York City, [Am] ray _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
