Artist: Phish
Song: "Sparkle"
Album: Rift

Here are what I believe are the chords for Phish's "Sparkle".

G :355433    C:035555   F:133211  D:057777

G                                            C                       G
                         F
The pressure builds, you buy a gift, you're hoping that your dread will lift

              G                C                            G    D
           G
It glitters on her like a glass, you shudder as it comes to pass

                    C                              G                     F
Apologize, to Lucelill, converse with Ed, a drive with Jill

                   G                         C                    G         D
        G
Your freinds confine you in thier worlds, one by one, a string of pearls

                                           C                      G         F
Confused you say, "This isn't me."  You hover in thier unity

                      G                      C                         G
      D          F
Ashamed you slowly lose your grasp, release the links, undo the clasp

       G                           C                    G
                       F
The skin that drips down off the tree, or peels back slowly from your knee

G                      C                           G              D
         G
Erupts into your lung and heart, you laugh and laughing, fall apart

Laugh and laughing fall apart...

If you've ever heard the song you know how it goes from here.  It's a pretty
easy song to play, I like to chance it to open chords on "The skin that drips
down..." Just because it adds a little variety to the song and is easier on
my fingers.  Anyhoo, enjoy!

No Picture A.K.A. Steven Average	#1 by A.K.A. Steven Stelacio at Aug 1, 1973 at 11:56 PM EST
	i don't know what it is about this song that makes me love it so much...it's so weird!

No Picture Bodom Lake Murd Average	#2 by Bodom Lake Murderer at Aug 31, 1975 at 6:04 AM EST
	Probably the anxiety into elation this song captures so perfectly. I believe Trey is referring to the feelings he felt when proposing to his wife.

No Picture kostas Rhythm Player	#3 by kostas kouveliotis at Jan 16, 1987 at 11:31 PM EST
	The lyrics to this were written by Tom Marshall about being being pressured into marriage. He has said that "sparkle" is one of the only songs written about his wife that she knows is about her. When he sent Trey the lyrics, Trey decided to make the song really happy because of how sad the lyrics were. I LOVE this song

	This is the happiest sounding song in the universe, I swear.
