Arist: The Arcade Fire
Song: Neighborhood #4 (7 Kettles)
Album: Funeral
G/B G
I am waitin’ ’til I don’t know when
A7sus4 G
cause I’m sure it’s gonna happen then
G/B G
Time keeps creepin’ through the neighborhood
A7sus4 G
Killing old folks, wakin’ up babies just like we knew it would
G/B G
All the neighbors are startin’ up a fire
A7sus4 G
Burning all the old folks the witches and the liars
G/B G
My eyes are covered by the hands of my unborn kids
A7sus4 G
but my heart keeps watchin’ through the skin of my eyelids
Cmaj7 G
They say a watched pot won’t ever boil
Cmaj7 G G/F#
Well I closed my eyes and nothin’ changed
Em A G
Just some water getting hotter in the flames
G/B G
It’s not a lover I want no more
A7sus4 G
and it’s not heaven I’m pining for
G/B G
But there’s some spirit I used to know
A7sus4 G
That’s been drowned out by the radio
Cmaj7 G
They say a watched pot won’t ever boil
Cmaj7 G G/F#
You can’t raise a baby on motor oil
Em A G
Just like a seed down in the soil you gotta give it time
