1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + [Convention: each chord is four beats/a full measure.

A note in brackets following a chord indicates that the note is played by the bass against the chord.] Intro: D C / B G / Em A D C 1. |: G / D C  :| x3 When I was only a zygote I still remember the time When there was nothing to know or to think about |: C G Am D  :| Except the sound of my mind And the sound from outside Chorus: G Am7 SenSurround: down at the bottom G(B) C Sensible to ear and sternum G(D) C / D And the world first spoke to me in SenSurround G / D E / Am C 2. If mom had known she was expecting She might have gone to see Jaws Instead of picking a film where the sound effects Came right up through the floor And I'd be differently formed Chorus Bridge: D C / Em/B G / Em A Accidentally in a coal mine it was found D C / Em/B G / Em A D When they accidently dug too far down and found the SenSurround C 3. I still don't know who conceived it Or where they got the idea But there it was in the aisle by the exit sign A woofer covered in wood to shake the room when it should Chorus-2: SenSurround - down at the bottom Sensible to ear and sternum Made the fakeness realistic When the action went ballistic One degree shy of sadistic And the world first spoke to me in SenSurround G / D E / Am Instrumental: |: B B+ G#m B+  :| x3 B B+ Em C 4. If I could swim under the water Without having to breathe If I could follow the trail to the ocean floor I think I'd know what there'd be Down there waiting for me Chorus-2 Coda: Cm Ebm Bb ---------------------------------------------------- lead guitar tab: INTRO D|-0---------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-0---------------| A|-----------------|-3-------2-------|-----------------|-0---------------|-----------------| E|-----------------|-----------------|-3-------0-------|-----------------|-----------------| VERSE D|---------------0-|-----------------|---------------0-|-----------------| A|-3-2-3-2-3-2-3---|-----------------|-3-2-3-2-3-2-3---|-----------------| E|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| (vocals start here) D|---------------0-|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| A|-3-2-3-2-3-2-3---|-----------------|-3-2-3-2-3-2-0-2-|-3-------2-------|-0---------------| E|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| D|-----------------|-----------------| A|-3-------2-------|-0---------------| E|-----------------|-----------------| CHORUS (last two choruses repeat first 6 bars) D|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| A|-----------------|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-| E|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| B|-----------------|-----------------|---------7-------|-9---------------| G|-----------------|-----------------|-4-------7-------|-9-------5-------| D|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|---------0-0-0-0-|-5-------7-------|-9-------7-------| A|-----------------|-3-3-3-3---------|-5-------5-------|-7-------7-------| E|-----------------|-----------------|-3---------------|---------5-------| G D E Am BRIDGE D|-5-4-5-4-5-4-5-7-|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| A|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| E|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| D|-0---------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-0---------------| A|-----------------|-3-------2-------|-----------------|-0---------------|-----------------| E|-----------------|-----------------|-3-------0-------|-----------------|-----------------| INSTRUMENTAL HAS NO GUITAR CODA B|---------7-------|-9---------------|-4---------------|-7---------------|-----------------| G|-4-------7-------|-9-------5-------|-5---------------|-8---------------|-7---------------| D|-5-------7-------|-9-------7-------|-5---------------|-8---------------|-8---------------| A|-5-------5-------|-7-------7-------|-3---------------|-6---------------|-8---------------| E|-3---------------|---------5-------|-----------------|-----------------|-6---------------| G D E Am Cm Ebm Bb
