alt-J - Last Year: chords

G        A                D
January came and took my heart away
D   Em D  A  G
Feb-ru-a-ry felt the same
F#m       Em               D
March, my hugs became hold ons
D        A                    G
April, I huffed like porridge on the boil
G            A                 D
Morning May, I'm downwind from your shampoo
D Em   D   A    G                      Em
Ichi, ni, san, go, roku, nana, hachi, kyuu, jyuu
D                  A               G
June, I learned to count to ten in Japanese

G               A           D
Dry July, like wiping skin from my skull
  D     Em  D   A  G
Instead, I visited family
F#m          Em
They told me I'm special
A   G
Hmm

Augustus came and stabilised me with my
father's pain
Relieving drug, diazepam
Life floats away
October, I swam back for my birthday
Firework display in a cafeteria of my old school
Happier my coal-black sleep in my cold, deep bed
December, you sang at my funeral

        D/A             Bm           D
If it's depths to your rivers, I've picked one for
 A
you
    D/A         Bm     D           A
Oh, greedy with Ss but equalled by Is
        D/A             Bm            D
If it's stones for your pockets, I've collected a
 A
few
   D/A      Bm
To hold you down
   D        A
To hold you down

Chorus:
G      A      D            G
Mississippi, come back to me
G          A           D           G
Oh, Mississippi, your cold, black sleep
G    A     D  G
Oh, Mississippi
D   A   D
Oh, oh, oh

Chorus:
G      A      D            G
Mississippi, come back to me
G            A                D           G
Come, Mississippi, from your cold, black sleep
G    A     D  G
Oh, Mississippi
D  A D
Hmm
D  A D
Hmm
