=== Snakeheads === tabbed by Will This one's a bit easier to play, chord shapes don't really matter Bm C D Bm C D Weather cell from northern Canada Bm Em G Due in before the afternoon is over Bm C D Brown cows in the fields Bm C D Eating their way slowly through the clover Bm C D Bm C D And the canopy of apple trees before us Bm Em G Symmetrical and pure as a pagoda Bm C D Me and Lee Charm from Chicago in a U-Haul Headed out through western Minnesota Headed for the islands Headed for the islands Our load is heavy, you can hear it shifting Say what you like, I'm never going to stop Everyone will eat when we've arrived White apple blossoms soften up the blacktop Two days from now we'll get to where we're going The western sky will pitch-correct its winding Our cargo's going to spill out from the cabin And rub its eyes and see the silver lining, yeah, yeah Headed for the islands Headed for the islands
