Grieves

Serpents

by Grieves
Grieves

Biography:

Having spent nearly two years on the road touring in support of 88 Keys and Counting,

The end of 2008 saw Grieves enlisting the help of friend and collaborator Budo to co-produce Together/Apart bringing his signature swiss-army knife, multi-instrumental backdrop to Grieves' hauntingly poignant narrative. The album began taking shape in New York as the two built off the success 88 Keys and Counting had generated and paired it with the intensity they developed from their live performances.

Grieves - Serpents


CAPO 2


[Intro]Am Am C E


[Verse 1:]
Am
I was in the second grade when you pushed me out
Am
Third story window to the bushes down below
C
Breathing in the cold
E
As I tumbled through the vines' thorns smiling at my throat
Am
I, I saw the devil in you that day
Am C
Looking down at me with that face
E
Smiling like you would have hid my body in the basement
Am
Body in the Basement
C
But you got something that the world's been running from
Am
For way too long and it's a sick twist
E
A nervous little twitch
Dragging the razors across my wrists
Am C
And you got something that the world's been trying to hide
You're cyanide
Am
Cause the only thing you told me was
E
They'd never find my body in the basement
Body in the basement, no

[Hook:]
Am C
Every time I think about you know I go crazy
Am
People ask me about you
I don't know what to say
E
Cause I don't know who you are
Am C
I wonder if it's even possible for you to escape this
Am
Keep on asking about you

They don't know what to tell me
E
They don't know who you are
Am
They don't know who you are

[Verse 2:]
Am
I was listening through the wall when you met your monsters
Am C
Heard'em break the closet door and take you away
E
Hoping you would change like the color of the moonlight
Bouncing off the rain
Am
I, I heard the devil in you that day
C
Watch the world around you cascade
E
Laughing like you would have fed your family to the serpent
Am
Family to the serpent
Am C
You got something that the world won't talk about
They walk around it
Am E
It's deep sleep, crawling in the street
Pushing the bayonet into me
Am C
You got something that the world keeps trapped inside
You aconite
Am
Cause I watched you turn around
E
Go and try to feed you family to the serpent
Am
Family to the serpent whole

[Bridge:]
Am C
These words won't break on you I know
E Am
I've done my best to help so many times before
Am C
These words won't break on you I know
E
I've done my best to help

[Hook]
Am C
Every time I think about you know I go crazy
Am
People ask me about you
I don't know what to say
E
Cause I don't know who you are
Am C
I wonder if it's even possible for you to escape this
Am
Keep on asking about you

They don't know what to tell me
E
They don't know who you are
Am
They don't know who you are
