Текст песни Neutral Milk Hotel - Ferris Wheel On Fire

Ferris Wheel On Fire
Neutral Milk Hotel
This is the whole album, taken from other tabs on this site, 
I corrected some of the lyrics, and chords as well.
I'm sure there are mistakes though, so please correct me.

OH SISTER 

Oh sister, don't be afraid of me
I won't be nailing you down in the nursery
Just like the rest of them did
With those watery, wandering fingers of spit

That were supposed to be glorious and fine
Oh sister, won't you believe in me

I only wanted to be hard on the family
Here with you now in this zillionth infirmary
A mother makes frantic and drunk calls from Germany
All of the time
Oh sister, sweet brown and beulahry
milk from your blisters on your grandmother's jewelry
there in the parlor all naked in front of me
Watching the lights from the cracks making archery animal designs
Rose Wallace Goldeline just moves her mouth over anything
Thats fleshy free and flowering like oranges out in the open
But don't you waste your sins again
She don't need you
or won't fuck your friends
And you, you're American, self important boiling over

To prove that she must still exist
she moves herself about her fist
and wont ever never give a shit
about all those words you're wasting again
Some pretty bright and bubbly wondrous dream
You'd like to kill and clean
And claim her as your own
But don't you worry
All those dainty and dirty emotions just go away and fade out on their own

Sister, now that you're leaving
Our fingers will falter
Our lungs will be leaking
All over each other and without even speaking
We'll know that it's over and smiling or greeting
Whatever comes next
And oh sister
You're getting married with some angry twister
That you'll have to carry home drunk every evening from the cemetery
And if he makes it back half alive you can bury him
Under your sheets
And oh sister
now that you're greaving
I can not imagine there is any meaning
forgetting you ever could once had the feeling that made you keep on
and pretend you were breathing of all of this world
and in an age of empty rings
I don't want to feel the thing
I don't even want to know

Rose Wallace Goldeline
don't you ever die on me
don't you own the way you go

FERRIS WHEEL ON FIRE (Thanks to MoonFace)

Both barre chords. Barre  on the first 
fret and  on the third. The - pattern continues through all verses.

Well now first of all
We became what we always had feared
Every engine holds
All their oils on fire appeared
They finally broke through
And on your shoulder
This weight has been placed upon you
And everything we ever learned

But now I'm keeping still
In someone's bright carnival ride
All the crowd just cheers
As the bolts break and metal collides
Spiraling through
And flying up over the hills
And now everything's broken in two
And everything we ever would

But now most of all
I am holding you under my skin
Watch these buildings fall
Watch as each weak resistance caves in
All over you, all over
And now finally fading from view
Is everything we ever knew

Repeat  and  throughout the last part.

HOME (Thanks to Thewheeman)

   x2

Hold
Well you can hold your hands together all you please
Won't erase those tender tidings you endured
You were just another family member on their knees
Just a social work statistic out the door
They beat against the tender sidings of your soul
With all those pretty little hammers of control 
And where they are tonight well you will never know
But I swear that I will find them now

More
Its more than just a simple question of decay
More than all those fists that beat into your door
It's more than all the shrinks that told you you’re okay
It's more than anything that I have waited for
They beat against the tender sidings of your soul
With all those pretty little hammers of control 
And if they even can remember I don't know
But I swear that they'll remember now

   x4

Home
It's just another word you'll always push away
Just a memory you wear outside your clothes
And it will burn down into cinders and some day
They will burrow down to their parental holes
They beat against the tender sidings of your soul
With all those pretty little hammers of control 
And if they've ever paid a price well I don't know
But I swear that they will pay one now

APRIL 8th (Thanks to liamf)

Just strum  at the end

Lyrics: 

Crawl across toward your window
I'm calling softly from the street
Always a lonely widow
Half awake and sleeping on my feet
I'm of age but have no children
No quarter phone booth calls to home
Just late night television
Inside my bedroom all alone

There is no use in waiting
Offer up your steps so I can climb
Show me all your figure paintings
Etched in the middle of the night
Let me stretch upon your carpet
Let me hear the rain tap on your street
Knowing I am safe on the inside      
                                  (Strum  Here)
Blankets wrapped and drifting off to sleep

I WILL BURY YOU IN TIME (Thanks to UtBDan)

I'll get around to putting the chords over the lyrics soon, 
i'm just trying to get all of them in one place right now.

Chords used:

I will bury you in time when the sea begins to

slide into this hole where I am smiling on your shoulder

You have buried my beliefs where all your sisters

sleep, but their scent of purity will breath when the youth is over

frozen in some lost October

And I am breathing into you
It makes your features move
And they shimmer like balloons that fly above the ocean
All the world is waiting here
You can hear the children cheer
But they'll need you when you're near
The brink of complete implosion
Crown your king when your life is broken

Everything you are I'm tearing through
Everything you want I'm wanting too
I gave you more than I thought I could ever do
But I will never break you down

And if I was the king of all the kids
You'd you hear me singing in my spit
But all you would hear is the shit inside my burnt emotions
I will bury you in time
When the sea begins to slide
Into this hole where you and I will sing our songs unbroken
As the water starts its choking
Dee dee dee dee dee

ENGINE (Thanks to buh2001j)

   x 2

For I am an engine and I'm rolling on
through endless revision to state what I mean
for sweetness alone who flew out through the window
and landed back home in a garden of green
you're riding alone in the back of a steamer
and steaming yourself in the warm shower spray 
and water rolls on off the round captains belly
who's talking to tigers from his cafeteria tray

and sweet babies cry for the cool taste of milking
that milky delight that invited us all
and if there's a taste in this life more inviting
than wake up your windows and watch as those sweet babies crawl 
        awaaay yeah mmm mmm mmm

   x2

 Baby For Pree/Grow Into You (Thanks to HipsterDoucheba)

Blistering Pree, all smiling and swollen
Makes babies to breathe with their hearts hanging open
All over the sheets as soft as beets in some brown dresser drawer
And with bees in her breath and the rest of her ringing
They'll sting through her chest with a force hard and beating
Until wonderfully wet she will get
Until she's soaked inside her clothes
And there is no sorry to be sorry for
For a roll around the floor some afternoon so sound and soft
It made her swallow all her sweat with every bit of breath she coughs
And when the day it came to pour all her babies all across the bathroom floor
She will be swimming in them all forevermore

Glow right into you, I will glow
Right into you I will glow
Right into you
And I let you down
Swollen and small is where you find me now
With that silver stripping off and my tongue you're tearing out
And you'll never hear me talk
Glow right into you, I will glow
Right into you I will glow
Right into you

And I will be strong, strong enough
To shout above your voice that's blaring hard
And your face that's falling out into the dust of what you are
And I will never hear you talk

Glow right into you, I will glow
Right into you I will glow
Right into you

And with my little finger
I could make it all crumble
I could make it all over
Before you would even know
Glow

My Dream Girl Don't Exist (Thanks to Sister_Ray)

-     (x3)

           My dream girl don't exist
At the age of five she slit her wrists
She didn't know that I'd be hanging around
So her parents buried her in the ground
And this day I can still hear the sound
Of her life in outerspace

    My dream girl don't exist
It's just you and I and this TV
And this illness seems to feel so strange
Like a henchman that's about to hang
The moon up like a ball and chain
instead it stands ablaze
  And the wait is waiting ah
  Build a world so real and strong

              My dream girl don't exist
Just a photograph and a history book
And I believe she had a voice and name
Three children on the coast of Maine
Her life was in a hurricane
Of love and real embrace

   My dream girl don't exist
At the age of five she slit her wrists
She didn't know that I'd be hanging around
So one day she took a stroll to town
And walked in front of a Greyhound bound
   For New York Central staaaaaaaaate

  And the wait is waiting ah
  And the wait is waiting ah
  Build a world so real and stroonnng
She goes and now she knows she'll never be afraid
