The Mountain Goats – In Memory Of Satan (Guitar)

C
Got my paintbox out last night

Am
Stayed up late and wrecked this place

Em             F
Woke up on the floor again

C                      F           G
Cellphone stuck to the side of my face

C
Dead space on the other end

Am
Perfect howl of emptiness

Em           F
Cast my gaze around the room

C                      F       G      F
Someone needs to clean up this mess

            C         F
Tape up the windows

          C                 G
Call in a favor from an old friend

C
Make some scratches on my floor

Am
Crawl down on my hands and knees

Em            F
In old movies people scream

C                                    F            G        Dm
Choking on their fists when they see shadows like these

           C                        G      Dm
But no one screams 'cause it's just me

               C                     G
Locked up in myself, never gonna get free

C
Something sacred, something blue

Am
Cannons in the harbor dawn

Em                   F
Crawled down here to dig for bones

C               F        G      F
One more season then I'm gone

                      C           F
Black drapes over the crosses

          C                 G
Call in a favor from an old friend
