Cell Song

This is how I play it. Suggestions and corrections welcome! C Dm C Dm C Dm C Dm Dm 2x C Dm C Dm We’ve got minds behind our eyes C Dm C Dm Looking out at ourselves C Dm C Dm Things that grow out of the ground C Dm C Dm Dm Must one day believe they’re real C Dm C C C C Dm Dm 2x C Dm C Dm Each little cog just sticks to the next C Dm C Dm Dm How can it be that they’re alive? C Dm C Dm This clever twist, this pyramid scheme C Dm C Dm Has got you in a double bind F G Em F Out of nothing, making something like yourself F G Em F Making patterns like a galaxy of cells F G Em F If these interactions or these consequences don’t F G Em F Approximate it quite to make some kind of soul F G Em F We have a contract yeah we have each others backs F G Em F We made a promise but one day we’ll fall apart C Dm C C C C Dm Dm 2x Until the world gets tired of looking at itself F F F F G G F F F G G C (No music) We have a place, a fighting chance While the chemicals keep up their dance C Dm C Dm While our roots are digging deep C Dm C Dm Trying to suck the whole place dry C G F F F G Em F Out of nothing, making something like yourself F G Em F Making patterns like a galaxy of cells F G Em F If these interactions or these consequences don’t F G Em F Approximate it quite to make some kind of soul F G Em F We have a contract yeah we have each others backs F G Em F We made a promise but one day we’ll fall apart C Dm C C C C Dm Dm 2x C Dm C Dm We have a contract yeah we have each others backs C Dm C Dm We made a promise but one day we’ll fall apart C Dm C Dm We have a contract yeah we have each others backs C Dm C Dm We made a promise but one day we’ll fall apart C Dm C Dm We have a contract yeah we have each others backs C Dm C Dm We made a promise but one day we’ll fall apart
