Verse 1:
Bm                 E                D/F#
As if you know the story of Wallowa Lake
                Cadd9      D5             Em
Leviathan first hid in the deep where her children sleep
              Dsus2
She kept them hidden from the plague
Bm                     E                    D/F#
But have you heard the story of my mother's fate?
               Cadd9          D5          Em
She left us in Detroit in the rain with a pillowcase
        Dsus2
Fortune for the paperweight


Verse 2:
Bm                 E                       D/F#
We followed her to Joseph, near the Indian raid
                   Cadd9           D5            Em
She wept among the weeds, hide and seek, for the fallen chief
      Dsus2
Spathiphyllum on his grave
Bm                 E                          D/F#
And like the cedar waxwing, she was drunk all day
                  Cadd9         D5              Em
We put her in the sheet, little wreath, candles on the crate
       Dsus2
As the monster showed its face


Chorus 1:
A      G
As she waits for her children in the shade
F             Em
Demogorgon or demigod the ghost parade
F                C                     A
No oblation will bring her back to our place


Interlude:
Starts with the A chord over 'place':
A E G D F C D


Verse 3:
Bm                    E                   D/F#
She stayed within the deep end of Wallowa Lake
             Cadd9              D5         Em
The undertow refrained with the flame of a feathered snake
          Dsus2
Charybdis in its shallow grave
Bm                   E                            D/F#
She gave us one last feature, the fullness of her face
                 Cadd9       D5          Em
In the shade of "Hin-mah-too-yah", Red Napoleon
       Dsus2
As the demon took her place


Chorus 2:
A     G
As we wait for the waters to reside
F              Em
Her remarkable stoicism and her pride
F                            C            A
When the dragon submerged we knew she had died


Instrumental Outro:
E G D
