Title: Orange Ball of Hate Band: Mountain Goats Album: Zopilote Machine Time: 12/8 (on the record) I forget the key but it's pretty much a blues progression. Pick your favorite key. The (D D# E) part is the riff that he plays.
E                                       (D D# E)
When I hear the screeching weather vane

E
in the wild wind and the hissing rain

            A
I know that one of us, I'm not saying who,

        E
has got rocks in her head

                                   B
As the rain comes through the open window

              A
but you don't think so

          E
I sure do love you

          E         (D D# E)
I sure do love you

E                                       (D D# E)
When I notice that the radio is broken

E
I see you standing there in the doorway soaking

    A
The water drizzles off of you down to the floor

               B
and I say that I don't want to live in New England anymore

     E                                B A
Some flower petals stick to your skin

E                                           (D D# E)
I grab hold of your hip,  and I pull you in

E                                       (D D# E)
When the building establishes control

E                                        (D D# E)
When the thunder from the north begins to roll down our way

E
I know I've been right all along

              A
and you start singing that stupid children's song

                  B
You think I don't know it

                           A
but I just don't feel like singing it

E
Sure do love you

E                     (D D# E)
I sure do love you
