Our Love Is Senile

Biography:

of Montreal is an indie pop band which formed in Athens, Georgia, United States in 1997. The band is fronted by Kevin Barnes, who writes, composes, and plays most of the music for his albums.

They were among the second wave of groups to emerge from The Elephant 6 Recording Company and the group has a style that is typical of many Elephant 6 bands due to their interest in combining musical experimentation with the basic tenets of pop i.e. catchy melodies and sing-along choruses.

Four years of hard work!

This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

The chords are played on the bottom three strings, all sexy funky style, but I
tried my best to tab them out for acoustic playing. Some are a little
questionable, let me know what you think. Also, the internet's lyrics
transcriptions are pretty terrible. I'm pretty confident in these. Counting is
written in on some syncopated parts, but verse chords are each a measure long,
just listen to the song for how the lyrics fit over them.
Intro: Bb Dm C Bb, x 4
Bb Dm C Bb
So now she's turning a corner, wants to leave me again
Bb Dm C Bb
Though it's sad I really should warn her, you can only break up so many times
Gm Dm Gm Dm
Before losing us to absurdity, without becoming forced to call she said:
Ebm Bbm Eb Bbm
How can we continue? If you're telling the truth, then I still don't believe you
[Instrumental]
Fm Eb Gm C# Bb F# , x 2, Fm(4 counts)
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4

Bb Dm C Bb
So now she's getting tired, wondering if it's a peak or precipice
Bb Dm C Bb
And just how to labor forward, when her man is a mess, and never there
Gm Dm Gm Dm
Though it's sad being apart, but it's much worse together in silence, because
Ebm Bbm
more than just civility, we need
Ebm Bbm
laughter, happiness, madness, anything
[Instrumental]
Fm Eb Gm C# Bb F# , x 2
Second Part (tonality ambiguous, just do power chords, in 3 measure phrases)
D Bb D Bb G A F C C#, x 3
1 2 & 3 4, 1 2 3 4, 1 2 & 3 4

Our love is senile, like a blind child bumping into walls
Say it's not guilt keeping us together, how can we support each other's wills
Our love is senile, like we don't recognize each other
Somehow we've relapsed to being strangers
We're scuttling reptiles in our sacred realm

Gm Dm Gm Dm
Now it's time to play the socialist, and protect our little chick from our
Ebm Bbm Eb, Bbm
problems and confusion, this evasiveness is no solution

Instrumental x 4
End on C# (or something..)
