#Hey - here's the tab for Armchairs from Armchair Apocrypha. The chord changes are
#close but not completely lined up right (this kind of took forever). Its a pretty
#song and there are lots more licks and probably a few chord changes, but this should be
#at least. Enjoy

CGC
I dreamed you were a cosmonaut
G
of the space between our chairs
C
And I was a cartographer
G
of the tangles in your hair
F
I sang the song that silence sings
FC
It's the one that everybody knows, everybody knows
The song that silence sings
G
And this is how it goes
(2nd fill)
C
These looms that weave apocrypha
G
they're hanging from a strand
C
The dark and empty rooms were full
G
of incandescent hands
F
The awkward pause
F
The fatal flaw
F
Time, it's a crooked bow
C
Time is a crooked bow
C
In time you need to learn, to love
G
The ebb just like the flow
D7B5Em
Grab hold of your bootstraps, and pull like hell
AmD
until gravity feels sorry for you, and lets you go
GCC/B
As if you lack the proper chemicals to know, oh
AmB5F
the way it felt the last time you let yourself fall this low
C
Time's a crooked bow
F#/D7
Time's a crooked bow
FGC
Time, it's a crooked bow
FG
Fifty-five and three-eighths years later
FG
At the bottom of a gigantic crater
FG
An armchair calls to you
FG
Yeah, this armchair calls to you
C
It says, someday, we'll get back at them all
G
With epoxy and a pair of pliers
C
As ancient sea slugs begin to crawl
G
through the ragweed and barbed wire
C
You didn't write
G
You didn't call
FG
It didn't cross your mind at all
C
Through the waves
G
waves of hay and straw
FG
You couldn't feel a thing at all
F
Fifty-five and three-eighths
G
Time
Fifty-five and three-eighths
Time
Time
F to G repeats, end on F.
