I've really been gettin into this track recently - a great song. Here's how
I'm figurin' it's played.

Intro: D - G

D                       G                            D
Held a bird's egg between her breast                
There's reasons for the road I guess
To document the indigenous
                                G
To paint and sketch, paint and sketch

        D                 A        G         D
I'm starting to fail to be impressed

D                 G               D
United state of ricochet
From the boardwalk to the ?agean? way
The diamond falls, the corporate raise
                             G
You pratically killed not to be afraid

                 D                  A                     G        D
And I'm starting to choke on the things I say

                   A                             D
I'm puttin down, I'm puttin down
                     A                            G
I'm puttin down, I'm puttin down
                     A                            G
I'm puttin down, I'm puttin down
       D
Down

D                            G                                  D
From ?beatin? up from undernearth your dress
The documented indiginous
Civilization flipped it's heads
                                 G
You know the rest, there is no rest

                 D                   A        G                    D
And I'm starting to fail to know what's best

                   A                             D
I'm puttin down, I'm puttin down
                     A                            G
I'm puttin down, I'm puttin down
                     A                            G
I'm puttin down, I'm puttin down
       D
Down

The rest of the song is D - G with soloing over it. It ends on with a  D - A -
G - D.
