The Mountain Goats – Genesis 303 (Guitar)

G                     A 
for several days the visitors were here

C                            D
we saw them turn down and we watched them disappear

G                          A
talked about the days they said were sure to come

C                        D
had a hard time believing

G                         A
i remember seeing you, my tongue struck dumb

         C                        D
when you first came here from wherever it was you came from

G                       A
the power in your voice, your rough touch

C                      D
you keeping care of me, keeping watch

      Em
open up

      A
the doors to the tent

C                 D
wonder where the good times went

       G           F
i will do what you ask me to do

Em               C
because of how i feel about you

G                             A
i saw his little face contract as his eyes met light

C                 D
try to imagine anything so bright

G                           A
you only see it once and it sails under the dawn

C                               D
and then it's gone forever

G                               A
for several hours we lay there, last ones of our kind

C                         D
harder days coming maybe, i don't mind

G                             A
it sounds kind of dumb when i say it but it's true

C                               D
i would do anything for you

         Em
open up

    A
the promise of the day

C         D
drive the dark things away

       G           F
i will do what you ask me to do

Em               C
because of how i feel about you
