Subject: chords
group:phish
song:i'm wading in the velvet sea
Okay, this is my first time on here, so let's go:
(repeated in the background by the rest of the guys:"I'm wading in the
velvet sea")
G D Em
I took a moment from my day, and wrapped it up in things you say
C D
And mailed it off to your address, you'll get it sometime soon unless
(repeat same chord structure rest of song)
The packaging begins to break and all the points I tried to make
Are tossed with thoughts into a room, my time leaks out, my life leaks in
You won't find moments in a box, and someone else will set your clocks
I took a moment from my day, and wrapped it up in things you say
And mailed it off to you...
There's a new one fer all ya roly-poly phish heads!

| i think it means things you hear are not always right and advice may not always be right, and some people may give you bad advice on purpose, and you should go live your life and trust your own experiences | |

| its a beautiful diddy for sure! if something is beautiful, why tear it apart? would you tear apart a rose? can't we just appreciate the art for its beauty in and of itself, and hold back our desire to poke and prod? | |

| this is such a great song with such good lyrics to me it says that you should tell someone you love or like before it's to late before they leave, "You won't find moments in a box someone else won't fix your clock" you can't go back and change thingsor fix the past | |

| ya, that story's slightly true, Trey stole a human hand and a pigs heart, put the heart in the hand sent it back to the school with a note that read, " i've got to hand it you ya, you've got heart." thats when he got kicked out. but i don;'t think this song is about that.... | |

| I'm just going to try and translate it as if I were singing this to you. I had an idea or an emotion that I thought you'd be able to understand, relate to, or appreciate. (I took a moment...in things you say) I decided to tell you, and I probably will unless you prove not to be the person I think you are and everything I wanted to say would become unimportant. (The packaging begins to break...with thoughts into a bin) I tossed the thought aside as reality set in. (Time leaks out my life leaks in) I can't make you be what you are not. I cannot create a moment. (You can't find moments in a box) Or else I"d just be kidding myself because I'd be creating a person, or life, that doesn't exist. (And someone else will set your clocks) I've been wading in the Velvet Sea in order to comfort and reassure myself that this wasn't what I was doing. I've been wading in the Velvet Sea, thinking that everything I thought was right. HAZAA! | |
