Mountain Goats - Cry For Judas

[ A ] [ Asus2 ] x3

[ A ] [ Bm ]
some things you do just to see
[ D ] [ A ] [ Asus2 ]
how bad they’ll make you feel .
[ A ] [ Bm ]
sometimes you try to freeze time
[ D ] [ A ] [ Asus2 ]
til those thoughts are a blur of spinning wheels .
[ A ] [ Bm ]
but i Am just a broken machine ,
[ F#m ] [ D ] [ E ]
and i do things that i don’t really mean .

[ A ]
long black night ,
[ C#m ]
morning frost .
[ F#m ]
i’m still here ,
[ D ]
but all is lost .

[ A ] [ Asus2 ]

[ A ] [ Bm ]
speed up to the precipice ,
[ D ] [ A ] [ Asus2 ]
and then slam on the brakes .
[ A ] [ Bm ]
some people crash two or three times ,
[ D ] [ A ] [ Asus2 ]
and then learn from their mistakes .
[ A ] [ Bm ]
but we are the ones who don’t slow down at all ,
[ F#m ] [ D ] [ E ]
and there’s nobody there to catch us when we fall .

[ A ]
long black night ,
[ C#m ]
morning frost .
[ F#m ]
i’m still here ,
[ D ] [ E ]
but all is lost .

[ F#m ] [ D ] [ A ]
feel the storm every night , hope it passes by .
[ E ] [ F#m ] [ D ] [ A ] [ Asus2 ]
hallucinate the shady grove where judas went to die .

[ A ] [ Bm ]
unfurl the black velvet alter cloth ,
[ D ] [ A ] [ Asus2 ]
draw a white chalk baphomet .
[ A ] [ Bm ]
mistreat your alter boys long enough ,
[ D ] [ A ] [ Asus2 ]
and this is what you get .
[ A ] [ Bm ]
sad and angry , can’t learn how to behave .
[ F#m ] [ D ] [ E ]
still won’t know how in the darkness of the grave .

[ A ]
long black night ,
[ C#m ]
morning frost .
[ F#m ]
i’m still here ,
[ D ]
but all is lost .
