<< Back to The Mountain Goats Song List

Version 1

            [Verse 1]
A
Look closely at the shadows
                                C#m  D
On the ground beneath the trees
                 A
The labors of Hercules


Wild grasses on the hills
                    C#m  D
Rippling in the wind
            A
Cybele unchained


[Pre-Chorus]
    E
The songs you sing at Christmas time
    D
The stories that you tell
                     F#m
Well I knew them well
   D               F#m
Yes I knew them well


[Chorus]
    E
Say your prayers to whomever
        D
You call out to in the night
         F#m
Keep the chains tight
E
Make it through this year
      D                  A
If it kills you outright


[Verse 2]
A
The coins they toss at dancers
                            C#m  D
Whirling in the city square
A
Music on the air

The places where we met to share
                         C#m  D
Our secrets now and then
         A
We will see them again

E
Change will come
     D
Stay warm inside the ripple
D
Of the panasonic hum

It grinds
        F#m
And it roars
D
Headed somewhere better

If I have to crawl there on all fours


[Chorus]
    E
Say your prayers to whomever
        D
You call out to in the night
         F#m
Keep the chains tight
E
Make it through this year
      D
If it kills us outright

A D A E D x2
