Southwood Plantation Road (ver2) Chords - Mountain Goats






Southwood Plantation Road - tabbed by Pete
This is a great song with a very fun rhythm. Its in standard tuning. Long live the mountain goats.

Intro: A    G  D   A
(listen to the song to get the rhythm down)

A G
I've got you
D       A
You've got whatever's left of me to get
A                             G
Our conversations are like minefields
D                                     A
No one's found a safe way through one yet
A                     G
I spend a lot of money
D                 A
I buy you white gold
A        G
We raise up a little roof
D      E
Against the cold

      AD
On Southwood Plantation Road
   A  D
Where at night the stars blow like milk across the sky
A        E
Where the high wires drop
A      DDm
Where the fat crows fly

A    G D   A

(rest of song follows same pattern as above)
All night long you giggle and scream
Your brown eyes deeper than a dream
I am not gonna lose you
We are gonna stay married
In this house like a Louisiana graveyard
Where nothing stays buried
On Southwood Plantation Road
Where the dead will walk again
Put on their Sunday best
And go with unsuspecting Christian men
La la la la la
