They Might Be Giants

Unpronounceable

They Might Be Giants


Tom: G

Gadd9
Time stopped
Gadd9
When you said hello
Gadd9
When you left
Gadd9
The clock began to breathe again
    Cadd9
Now all I do is think about
    Dadd9
The puzzle that remains


[Chorus 1]
     G           Am   C        D
Your name, it is un - pronounceable
G  Am         C    D
Distorted and illegible
D#      Bb      C        G    D
I never figured out what that was
   G          Am     C     D
If I couldn't then I doubt I ever will
G          Am    C          D
Rewind the tape, review the blur
G         Am    C         D
Never the same, but still obscure
D#      Bb        C        G         D
Turn up the sound and hear the white noise
G        Am      C            D
Zoom and enhance if that were even a
G    Am   C   D
Real thing
      G    Am   C   D
Which it isn't
D#       Bb         C    G      D
Stare at the static long enough you'll
   G    Am        C    D      G
Be hypnotized, be hypnotized


[Verse 2]
Gadd9
Now I spend
Gadd9
My days and nights
Gadd9
Looking at
Gadd9
A depression on the sofa
    Cadd9
And over time it flattens out
    Dadd9
But I am still depressed


[Chorus 2]
     G           Am   C        D
Your name, it is un - pronounceable
G  Am         C    D
Distorted and illegible
D#      Bb      C        G    D
I never figured out what that was
   G          Am     C     D
If I couldn't then I doubt I ever will
G          Am    C          D
Rewind the tape, review the blur
G         Am    C         D
Never the same, but still obscure
D#      Bb        C        G         D
Turn up the sound and hear the white noise
G        Am     C       D       G
Stare at the static and be hypnotized


[Instrumental]
G Am C D
G Am C D

G Am C D
(x2)


[Bridge]
G   Am  C  D
Found
        G  Am   C   D
Found your sound
      D#   Bb  C   G  D      G
Wound down and nearly drowned
Am    C      D
Lying on the ground


[Chorus 3]
     G           Am   C        D
Your name, it is un - pronounceable
G  Am         C    D
Distorted and illegible
D#      Bb      C        G    D
I never figured out what that was
   G          Am     C      D
If I couldn't then I know I never will
G          Am    C          D
Rewind the tape, review the blur
G         Am    C         D
Never the same, but still obscure
D#      Bb        C        G         D
Turn up the sound and hear the white noise
G        Am     C       D       G
Stare at the static and be hypnotized
