Verse 1:
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  A  B

Verse 2:
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

Chorus:
                           B
Grab your hat get your coat
             D   A               B
The cellar door is an open throat

Verse 3:
                              D
Look past the kitchen cabinets
A                              B
Go through the chest of drawers
                        D
Scrutinize the casements
A                            E
Rip the varnish off the doors

B  D  A  B

Verse 4:
                               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

Chorus:
E
Still waters go stagnant
            B
Bodies bloat
                 D   A               B
And the cellar door is an open throat

Outro:
B  D  A  B x4
