Elijah The Mountain Goats
[A] [D] [E]
[A]Streak the windows, smear the walls with cocon[D]ut oil, yeah [E]
[A]Fill a cast iron kettle with water and magnoli[D]a blossoms [E]
[F#m]Let it boil, let the water roll.
[D]Let the fire take its[E] toll. I'm coming home [A] [D] [E]
[A]Dust off the idols, give them something to eat [D] [E]
[A]I bet they're hungry, I know I'm starving half [D]to death [E]
[F#m]I know you're waiting, I know you've been [D]waiting for a long, long [E]time
[A]and I'm coming home [D] [E]
[F#m]Set the table, those thr[D]ee extra spaces, one for
[A]me, one for your doubts, one for God [E]
[A]Let the incense burn in ev[D]ery room [E]
[A]Feel the fullness of time in the[D] empty tomb [E]
[A]Feel the future kicking[D] in your womb [E]
I'm coming home[A]. I'm coming home [D] [E]
Repeat intro for a while, end on A.
