Belly Of June


----- *So, this is my first submission here. I LOVE this band. I'm fairly confident about these chords, based on seeing it played live (online) and in the music video. I got the lyrics from a website, but they seem accurate enough to me. I hope you enjoy it (and please correct what you think is wrong!) ----- The basic chord progression is G, Fmaj7, C. Later I believe it changes for one little bit to to Dm, Am, C, G. You can play around with the strumming of the G chord to occasionally lift off the 5th string, playing a Gadd9 sort of chord. CAPO 3 G Fmaj7 C It's noon in the belly of June. G Fmaj7 C Let's wager with bodies, the night's coming soon. G Fmaj7 C Come like a lover to me G Fmaj7 C Let's lay in the dark and meet the birds and the bees. G Fmaj7 C A scene at the past county fair. G Fmaj7 C She swore to his face: "There's no rib that we share!" G Fmaj7 C Please won't you leave her alone. G Fmaj7 C She's telling you boy, you don't know when to go. Am C G She's had enough she sadly sung: Fmaj7 C G "We're no longer young, we're lazy and lithe, Fmaj7 C and our age makes us dumb. G Fmaj7 C Don't call on me, paltering and pale, G Fmaj7 C With sin on your mind, and dirt under your nails." Dm Am C G Well, he holds to a vow just because. Dm Am C G Lamenting a love that never was. Dm Am C G It's a thing that's never tested or tried. Dm Am C G In a June that up and bloomed and quickly died. G Fmaj7 C It's noon in the belly of June. G Fmaj7 C Let's wager with bodies, the night's coming soon. G Fmaj7 C Come like a lover to me G Fmaj7 C Let's lay in the dark and meet the birds and the bees. G Fmaj7 C G Fmaj7 C Between the two and under the sun, G Fmaj7 C G Fmaj7 C It's a war that's always fought and is never won. G Fmaj7 C G Fmaj7 C Between the two and under the light, G Fmaj7 C G At last she's never convinced and won't stay the night.
