Camp Cope (occasionally typeset as CAMP COPE) are an Australian indie rock band from Melbourne, Victoria. The band consists of vocalist/guitarist Georgia Macdonald (aka Georgia Maq, formerly of Employment), bassist Kelly-Dawn Hellmrich (formerly of Palmar Grasp) and drummer Sarah Thompson (also of TV Haze and formerly Razel). The band formed in 2015 and released their first single, "Stove Lighter," that same year. In January 2016, the band released their second single, "Lost: Season One," ahead of the release of their self-titled debut album.
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!
I've wanted the tabs to this song since I heard it, and I've finally worked them out! They're not perfect, but they'll do. In the video, Georgia Maq plays the 'fleshed out' versions of these chords (C as Cadd9, Em as Em7). Feel free to do the same. Personally I think it makes it sound better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2lFyGWvImI
FLESH AND ELECTRICITY CAMP COPE (CAMP COPE, 2016)
[Intro]
GCDGC
[Verse]
GC Each day I ride my bike to the hospital G Walk around check vital signs C And pretend to be useful G Sometimes though I really don't know C What I'm doing here GC My father says it's atonement for my reckless years DEmC Like the antagonist in that book DEmC For that class that I once took
[Chorus]
DEmCG I've been desensitized to the human body DEm I could look at you naked CG And all I'd see would be anatomy CG You're just bones and insecurity CGD Flesh and electricity to me
EmC
[Verse]
GC Each night I try to find that feeling in my bed G The two dimensional happiness C When you live your life through a camera lens GC People stick together and they pull themselves apart GC Dehydration, seperation, like the chambers of my heart DEmC Then the weight fell off like clothes DEmC Never knowing where it goes
[Chorus]
DEmCG I've been desensitized to the human body DG I could look at you naked CG And all I'd see would be anatomy CG You're just bones and insecurity CGD Flesh and electricity to me
EmC
[Verse]
EmGCD Tear labels off beer bottles in a living room Em Feeling nothing G Wanting nothing CD Because that part of me left with you EmGCD Now I plan my day around the 8 and 12 medication rounds EmG There are no shocks or surprises C No, it's nothing like that
[Chorus]
DEmCG 'Cause I've been desensitized to the human body DEm I could look at you naked CG And all I'd see would be anatomy CG You're just bones and insecurity CGD Flesh and electricity like me
