VERSE:
G
when i was a little boy
Em
i threw away my action toys
C D/F#
while i became obsessed with operation
with hearts and minds and certain glands
you learn to keep a steady hand
and thus began a morbid fascination
with
CHORUS:
Am7 D7 G Bm7/F# C
sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetbreads
D/F# G G7
i could taste what you were thinking
Am7 D7 G Bm7/F# C
sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetbreads
D/F# G
thats the taste of neurons blinking
VERSE:
do you wonder where the self resides
is it in your head or between your thighs
and whos gonna decide its true location
VERSE:
cause its a question for the centuries
from communion to mad cow disease
but is it worthy of a song or lifes vocation
BRIDGE:
Em
and the sweetest sweetbread of them all
Emb6
was in a kingdom of a fall
Em6 D/F#

CHORUS:
sweetbreads
i could taste what you were thinking
sweetbreads
thats the taste of neurons blinking
VERSE:
does the thought of biles red and black
the thought of tounges that taste you back
fill you with a noisey oscillation
VERSE:

and the sweetest sweetbread of them all
was in a kingdom of a fall
showed a course of unsightly imaginations
they called them
CHORUS:
sweetbreads
i could taste what you were thinking
sweetbreads
thats the taste of neurons blinking
