This is probably my favorite song on this album. As usual,
play it tuned down ½ step. All of the chords are listed as
they would be played in standard tuning. I didnt mess with
the solo, it is a bunch of variations on the D/Dsus kind of
stuff in the intro. I think these chords are pretty accurate,
but please send me any corrections you may find (or the solo).

My brother kicked his feet to sleep, ect, ect
And I sang the dirge song
My brother never missed a beat
My brother kicked his feet to sleep, sweet feet
My brother kicked his feet to sleep
And I sang the dirge song
Angel, dont you have some bagels in my oven?
Lady, dont you know a man when you see one?
Crazy lady with the shiny shoes, where are you?
Kick your feet and calm the space that makes you hollow
Anal, tight assed soldier with that dogged heart
we are ready to explode, we gotta take it smart

"Insomnia and the Hole In the Universe" by Live
On the new album, Secret Samadhi
This is another cool song from Live's latest album. The album's really good,
but it's something that definitely grows on you as you listen to it.
Transcribed by email protected
Tune a 1/2 step down, as per usual for about 99% of Live's songs.

(*****listen to the chorus to figure out the exact struming pattern, because
it changes slightly when he sings, "Crazy Lady, ..."*****)

That's pretty much the whole song, except for a few lead riffs that are played.
Again, listen to the song to figure out what parts go where.
