Barney And Miriam Cifras

Barney and Miriam – Craig Cardiff
This is the version from the album Floods and Fires. I have no idea what he’s saying a lot of the
time so I just make up lyrics. Sorry.
Capo 1
 
Intro: C   G  Am  F
 
Verse 1:
C                       G
Cry little deaths and sweet agonies
Am                              F
Rising and falling of you and me
                 C                G                          Am                                    F
Oh lady darkness where all secrets were revealed
C                                                              G
Don’t worry, everyone’s a little crazy
Am                                      F
Everyone pretends a bit
C                                       G
And don’t worry when you need to leave
Am                                                     F
Cause my heart will be fine with it
 
Chorus X2:
F             G       Am    F
You’ll be my Miriam
F             G            Am      F    (second time skip Am and F go right into interlude)
I’ll be your Barney
 
Interlude: C   G   Am  F
 
Verse 2:
                                                   C                    G
If hearts could see it all and there’s a carnival there
Am                                      F
Where the Barkers and Townies and Clowns
                C                       G
Fell your monkeys paid to walk the parking lot
Am                                      F
Make sure the cars and dogs and kids have the windows rolled down
        C                                       G
Ah little deaths, sweet agonies
        Am                      F
And the rise and fall of you and me
        C                     G                                    Am                     F
Oh lady darkness where all secrets got revealed
 
Chorus X2:
F             G       Am    F
You’ll be my Miriam
F             G            Am      F    (second time skip Am and F go right into interlude)
I’ll be your Barney

Don’t worry, everyone’s a little crazy
Am                                      F
Everyone pretends a bit
C                                       G
And don’t worry when you need to go
       Am                                      F
Cause my heart will be fine with it
