Tuning: Standard EADGBe ***CAPO 2nd Fret
INTRO:
I will tab these harmonics as if there was no capo...because they are
high up on the fret board (so play these on the indicated fret with a
capo on 2).

Feel the matress tense beneath me
like the muscle of nonsleepy;
Feathers flexing will defeat me,
and it vexes me completely.

VERSES:
Esus4 E
And the hexes heat covertly
Bm E
like a slow low-flying turkey
Esus4 E
like a Texan drying jerky
Bm E
but his meaty mitts can't hurt me
Esus4 E
With my steely will compounded
Bm E
in a mighty mound that's hounded
Esus4 E
by the snap your steel string sounded,

Bm E
just before your snores unwound it.
-----
D7M A7M
And in store are dreams so daring
Bm A7M
that the night can't stop from staring.
-----
Esus4 E
I'll swim sweetly as a herring
Bm E
through the ether, not despairing.
-----
A E
Go to sleep, you stunning sky;
D E
gently creep cunning by:
F#m E
A quiet hum is amplified
D E
by your thumb, that you suck dry.
A E D E
Hundred raging waters snare the lonely sigh.
F#m E D E
Hold your breath and clasp at Cassiopiea.
A E D E
Hundred raging waters snare the lonely sigh.
F#m E D E
Hold your breath and clasp at Cassiopiea.
-----
Esus4 E
Cassiopeia.
Bm E Esus4
Cassiopeia!
E Bm E
Ohhhh....Cassiopeia!
