The Mountain Goats – Cobscook Bay (Guitar)

C                        Am
We're alone most of the time these days.

E                        F
Jill used to come by, but she went away.

C                                Am
And gail used to come around and trash the joint,

E                     F
But she moved off to dana point.

F                    G
And you went along, just for the ride,

         C              F
And you both committed suicide.

     F      G            C        Am
And day is breaking over cobscook bay.

          F                   G                C
And I've never seen anything like it in my life.

C                        Am
Cow gave brith and her calves are snow white

E                      F
They huddle up close together at night.

          C                        Am
And the mamma cow leans down and cleans her young.

E                    F
Licking their faces with her tongue,

F                       G
And unmarked airplanes buzz the air.

            C               F                  C
And you're falling off that cliff somewhere in california 

F
Which I've never seen.

          C                          F
I put the pieces all together, but I don't know what they mean,

     F      G            C        F
And day is breaking over cobscook bay.

          F                   G                C
And I've never seen anything like it in my life.
