GENESIS THE CARPET CRAWLERS SELLING ENGLAND BY THE POUND Tabbed by Nicolás Levy Renaud (acade36@hotmail.com) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ STANDARD TUNING - NO CAPO VERSE 1: D Em D The crawlers cover the floor in the red ochre corridor. Em D For my second sight of people, theyve more lifeblood than before. Em D Theyre moving in time to a heavy wooden door, Em Where the needles eye is winking, closing in on the poor. CHORUS 1: F#m A The carpet crawlers heed their callers: G A Weve got to get in to get out G D Weve got to get in to get out C G D Weve got to get in to get out. VERSE 2: Em D Theres only one direction in the faces that I see; Em D Its upward to the ceiling, where the chambers said to be. Em D Like the forest fight for sunlight, that takes root in every tree. Em They are pulled up by the magnet, believing theyre free. CHORUS 2: F#m A The carpet crawlers heed their callers: G A Weve got to get in to get out G D Weve got to get in to get out C G D Weve got to get in to get out. VERSE 3: Em Mild mannered supermen are held in kryptonite, D Em And the wise and foolish virgins giggle with their bodies glowing bright. D Em Through a door a harvest feast is lit by candlelight; D Em Its the bottom of a staircase that spirals out of sight. CHORUS 3: F#m A The carpet crawlers heed their callers: G A Weve got to get in to get out G D Weve got to get in to get out C G D Weve got to get in to get out. VERSE 4: Em The porcelain mannikin with shattered skin fears attack. D Em The eager pack lift up their pitchers - they carry all they lack. D Em The liquid has congealed, which has seeped out through the crack, D Em And the tickler takes his stickleback. CHORUS 4: F#m A The carpet crawlers heed their callers: G A Weve got to get in to get out G D Weve got to get in to get out C G D Weve got to get in to get out.
