The Mountain Goats – The House That Dripped Blood (Guitar)

B                             D
Look beyond the broken bottles

A                             B
Past the rotting wooden stairs

                                     D
Root out the wine-dark honeyed center

A                     E
Not everyone can live like millionaires

B                              D
Look through the air-thin walls

A                                      B
Tear up the floorboards strip the paint

                           D
Go over every inch of space

A                           E
With the patience of a saint

E                       B
Grab your hat, get your coat

             D  A                 B
The cellar door   is an open throat

                              D
Look past the kitchen cabinets

A                              B
Go through the chest of drawers

                        D
Scrutinize the casements

A                           B
Rip the varnish off the doors

                              D
Dig up the laughing photographs

A                              B
They're here somewhere or other

                       D
Take what you can carry

A                          E
But let me tell you brother

E                                B
Still waters go stagnant, bodies bloat

                 D  A                 B
And the cellar door   is an open throat
