Matthew 25 21 chords by The Mountain Goats
Guitar chords with lyrics
D5
they'd hooked you up to a fentanyl drip
D5
to mitigate the pain a little bit
D5
i flew in from pennsylvania
D5
when i heard the hour was coming fast
D5
And i docked in santa barbara
D5
tried to brace myself
D5
but you can't brace yourself
Asus4
when the time comes you just have to roll with the blast
G
and i'm an 18-wheeler headed down the interstate
G
and my brakes are gonna give and i won't know til it's too late
D
tires screaming when i lose control
G
try not to hurt too many people when i roll
[instrumental]
D5
D5
D5
find the harbor freeway and head south
D5
real tired, head kind of light
D5
i found telegraph road, i'd only seen the name on envelopes
D5
found the parking lot and turned right
D5
i felt all the details carving out space in my head
D5
tropicanas on the walkway neon red
D5
between the pain and the pills trying to hold it at bay
Asus4
stands a traveler going somewhere far away
G
and i am an airplane tumbling wing over wing
G
try to listen to my instruments they don't say anything
D
people screaming when the engines quit
G
i hope we're all in crash position when we hit
[instrumental]

Dmaj7 D6sus2
and then came to your bedside
Dsus4
and as it turns out
D5
i'm not ready
Dmaj7 D6sus2
and as though
D5
you were speaking through a thick haze
D5
you said hello to me
D5
we all stood there around you
D5
happy to hear you speak
D5
the last of something bright burning
G
still burning
Asus4
beyond the cancer and the chemotherapy
G
and you were a presence full of light upon this earth
G
and i am a witness to your life and to its worth
D
it's three days later when i get the call
