===== Alpha Incipiens #1 =====
I emailed John for this song and he said it was "a romp with A and E, but it is a little out of tune on ZM".
On the quick changes from E to A to E again you only need to strum the A a couple times rapidly
intro: A E
E A E
the morning comes to a stuttering halt
E
the cool breeze that blows is somebody's fault
A
the summer heat tries to burn through
E B D(bar @5th fret) A E
and i look over to warn you but something's happening
the morning glories climb the wall
and you speak in a slow drawl
i'm trying to piece together what you're saying
but the birds are screeching, the hounds are baying
i don't remember there being any hounds around here
E
we lean back and we clink our glasses
A E
raise the drinks to our thirsty mouths,
A
and thick as molasses ice cold vodka eases in as
E
the low pressure system brings the breezes in
B
and they sashay and pirouette above you
D(@5th fret) A
the only thing i know is that i love you
E
and i'm holding on,
yeah

This sounds a little more correct to me. I can't decide if he plays the C/F at the 3rd/1st or the 8th/8th frets.
