The New Pornographers

Biography:

The New Pornographers are a Canadian indie rock group formed in 1997 in Vancouver, British Columbia. Their sound is influenced by that of such power pop bands as The Cars and Cheap Trick, but they use much more sophisticated rhythms and chord changes. Although it was widely reported that the New Pornographers got their name from a pamphlet put out by televangelist Jimmy Swaggart condemning rock ‘n’ roll as “the new pornography,” Carl Newman

C G Am Fsus4
when I was baby I looked like a pig
C G Am Fsus4
my nose a snout and my ears were too big
G C Em/Badd6 Am
my mother would poke at the hole
G Fsus4 G
at the back of my head where my brain was exposed
C Em/Badd6 Am G
I didn't know it then but never again
Fsus4 G C G Am G Fsus4 G
would recapture those wonderful days


C G Am Fsus4
When I was a baby I fell down a well
C G Am Fsus4
I landed deep down in the furnace of hell
G C Em/Badd6 Am
the devil would rock me to sleep
G Fsus4 G
with stories of cities of ivory and gold
C Em/Badd6 Am G
it took a long, long time before I could
Fsus4 G C G Am G Fsus4 G
escape from that terrible hole


[ C G Am G Fsus4 G ]


C G Am Fsus4
when I was a baby I lived in a crib
C G Am Fsus4
I crawled on floors and ate with a bib
G C Em/Badd6 Am
but then I was taken away
G Fsus4 G
and was sold to the circus for trinkets and beads
C Em/Badd6 Am
now I lie awake at night and dream about
G Fsus4 G C G Am G Fsus4 G
what I would do if I was ever set free


[ C G Am G Fsus4 G ]


[ Ends with C ]
