"A Prophecy" -  Close Lobsters


(From the album "Foxheads Stalk This Land") 
"Of the recorded material i think 'A Prophecy' is one of our finest moments."

-Andrew Burnett


 C   G    C   G    Em    C   G    D     Em    C   G    D

[Em]I can [C]see it like a [G]prophecy [D]
[Em]I have a [C]crystal ball [G]head [D]
[Em]You can [C]reach for the stars of [G]heaven [D]
[Em]It doesn't [C]mean you'll ever get [G]there [D]

[C]But you don't know where your [G]going
[C]Its not surprising since you don't know where to [G]go

Em    C   G    D     Em    C   G    D

[Em]And it's [C]just like the [G]sunshine [D]
[Em]To make my [C]eyes go river[G]like [D]
[Em]And it's [C]typical of the [G]weather [D]
[Em]To pour [C]in on an off [G]day [D]
 
[C]And you dont know what you're [G]saying
[C]Its not surprising since you don't know what to [G]say..

Em    C   G    D     Em    C   G    D

(Then an instrumental part...rhythm keeps strumming this pattern)

(..tempo speeds up slightly just before this verse...very cool!)

[Em]Most [C]things are hard to re[G]member [D]
[Em]I probably [C]didn't pick you up [G]right [D]
[Em]And it's [C]typical of the [G]weather [D]
[Em]To make my [C]eyes go river[G]like [D]

[C]You dont know what you're [G]doing
[C]Its not surprising since you don't know what to [G]do
 

Outro: do this sequence twice:

[C]... (hammer on it for a bit...going from quiet to louder)  [G]


Chords submitted by Shawn Halfpenny. Lyrics as told to me by none other
than Andrew Burnett - former lead singer of the CL's.
 
Andrew went on to say:
"They may  be a bit mixed up or missing a line or two -tell me what
you think.
An ode to Haulden Caulfield ?
To make my eyes go riverlike ?
