The Mountain Goats - Alpha Desperation March chords
Start Jamming...
[A] [Ab]
Try to stop the porch furniture in front of the door.
It only gives me something to push against in the full [Eb] heat of the summer's [Db] day.
You're telling [Ab] me to go away, but you owe me $8,000 that I could use it.
I'm only getting stronger.
You may have noticed, but a head full of memories propels me ever forward.
And in the living room, [Eb] I don't see where you are, but [Db] the back door is locked, [Ab] so you can't have gone far.
And $8,000 is a whole [Eb] lot of money, [Ab] and I could use it.
Could be that it's my imagination, but I think I hear you now.
So come out, come out, wherever you are.
Olly, olly, olly, olly, olly, oxenfree.
See, I'm perfectly [Eb] aware of where our love [Db] stands.
But the plain fact is [Ab] that your home ain't grand.
If it helps to jog your memory, [Eb] I'll lend it to you one Tuesday [Ab] when we weren't drinking.
Ha!
Ha-ha-ha.
Ha! Ha!
Ha-ha!
Ha-ha!
Ha-ha! Ha-ha!

Ha! Ha! Ha!
Ha!
Ha! Ha! Ha-ha!
Ha-ha!
Bye.
