Mountain Goats - Original Air-Blue Gown Chords

[Intro]
G C   Fsus2   C
F   C
 
 
[Verse 1]
C
Rain all burned away
Fsus2
The horseflies are an iridescent green
C
Plums boiled down to pulp
F                  C   Fsus2
Drying on a screen
 
 
[Verse 2]
C
Bright red air inside the house here
F
I can barely draw breath
C
Dark blue shapes pop behind my eyelids
Fsus2
I am not afraid of death
           Gsus2
And on the television
F
Black and white footage of the young Cassius Clay
   C
My god, my god, my god
                Gsus2
He was something
 
 
[Verse 3]
Dm
Fists flashing as he comes toward the screen
F
Sailing headlong into nothing
         C
And disappearing, reappearing
F
Out there in the clearing
C
Floating down the slight breeze
     F
That plays along the edges of the leaves
        C        G
It's you, it's you
     F
It's you
