Knock Me on the Head Lyrics
by Stornoway
Hey this is my first submission to Ultimate Guitar, and I'm pretty sure it's correct...enjoy!
Intro: Eb, Gm, Eb, Gm, Bb
Verse 1:
There's a hunger in the air, a lemon swollen in the trees
But shadows fall across the moon, I strain my ears towards the breeze
I wasted summer listening, secluded as a cemetery
Withered limbs under the sand, for an hourglass eternity
Chorus:
You are an albatross around my neck
When you needed to knock me on the head and say
No no no no
Verse 2: (I honestly don't know if these lyrics are correct or not... sorry!)
Jackal legs and tangled dogs
Are clutching darkest forestry
A woman dangles from a bridge on a thread of silver mercury
Chorus:
You are an albatross around my neck
When you needed to knock me on the head and say
No no no no
I've seen the ghost of my anathema upon my bed
I need a body to knock me on the head and say
No no no no
Bridge:
I saw a feathered silhouette on the crest of un forbidden waves
It hovered over salty air and I couldn't tear my eyes away
Verse 3:
And somewhere in between the lines, I drifted into fantasy
But you're the only open book, a portal to a star crossed sea
Chorus: (A capella)
You are an albatross around my neck
When you needed to knock me on the head and say
No no no no
I've seen the ghost of my anathema upon my bed
I need a body to knock me on the head and say
Instrumental:
Chorus:
No no no no no
I've seen the ghost of my anathema upon my bed
I need a body to knock me on the head and say
No no no no
