Jam Along & Learn...
Thank you, Hildy.
How are you?
You're okay, good.
[Ebm] Okay, super.
[Eb]
I met Hildy in 1994 [C] in Frankfurt,
wasn't it?
In the old, [Dm] old part of the city many years ago.
[G] Anyway, I had an email [N] a few
months ago actually from Thomas, who's here somewhere.
He's with his girl, Heike.
Is it
you?
And I believe he's going to ask you to marry him.
That's pretty cool, huh?
[G]
[B] What
do you think?
I think that means yes.
Congratulations.
[N]
So I'm going to have to play at your wedding
now.
You realize that, don't you?
In the church.
I quite like that.
I've done that a couple
of times in my life.
It's good fun.
[B] Okay, so I'd like to play a
It was a special
request [Abm] actually from Thomas.
It is an old and very wonderful [Bb] Genesis [B] song from the early
Peter Gabriel years.
It's a song called Carpet [Dbm] Crawlers.
[Eb]
[Ab] There's lands where I'm from [Eb] and naked feet.
[Ab] [Fm] The world's soft and warm.
It [C] gives off some
kind of heat.
[Cm] A
[Db] [Cm] salamander's [Db] space.
[Cm] Into flame [Db] to be [Cm] destroyed.
[Db] [Bbm]
Imaginary creatures
[Ab] are trapped in birth until you [Eb] are [Ab] alive.
[Eb] [Ab] [D] The fleas cling to the golden fleece, [C]
hoping
they'll find peace.
[Cm] It's [Db] hard [Cm] and just.
[Db]
[Cm] I [Db] crawled until you [Cm] lied.
[Db]
[Bbm] There's no hiding
in memory.
[Db] There's no home to be found.
The crawlers cover the [Ebm] floor.
In your red, ochre
[Db] condo, for my second sight of [Ebm] people.
Made my life better than [Db] before.
They're moving
[Ebm] their time through a heavy wood [Db] window.
With the needles I'm swinging [Ebm] and closing your

[Ab] You've got to get in to get out.
[Gb]
[Db]
You've got to get in
[B] to [Ebm] get out.
[Db]
There's only one thing I [Ebm] wish.
In the face of [Db] necessity.
In the top woods in the [Ebm] city.
Where the chain is [Db] set so they.
Like a bullet's bite [Ebm] into my neck.
It takes losing [Db] every three.
They are pulled up [Ebm] by the night.
They'll believe and go free.
[Fm] The carpet crawls.
Keep their
[Ab] corners.
You've got to get in to [Gb] get out.
[Ab]
You've got to get in to get out.
[Gb] [Db] You've got
to get in [B] to [Ebm] get out.
[Db]
Like from super [Ebm] marionette.
I held you in cribs at night.
[Db] And those lies they're smooth
This match is giggling [Ebm] with that body's glowing bright
[Db] Through the tower of this beast
[Ebm] It's reflecting the light
[Db] It's the bottom of the stage
And [Ebm] the spiders have a side
[Fm] Oh, carpet crawlers
Keep their
[Ab] callers
You gotta get in to get out of

Oh, it's no mannequin
[Ebm] With shaggy skin and fears of time
[Db] The needy girl-bob lift up their pitchers
[Ebm] They carry all they lack
[Db] All the goodies can kill
[Ebm] Cheetah out through the cracks
[Db] And the chick of the chicks
Stickleback, [Ebm] back, back
[Fm] Carpet crawlers
Keep their caller
