Iron & Wine - Me and Lazarus - (Kiss each other clean)

Chords by the Fairy Godmother

C                           C
Me and Lazarus, we shovel all the ashes out
C                           C
Black bare linens blowing 'round
C                           C
Back and forth and up and down
C                                        C
oh oh woah, guess I had nowhere else to go

C                           
Me and Lazarus kept bailing on the riverboat
C
Floating by the choir rose
C
Bobbing in the ebb and flow
C       F                                C
oh oh woah, guess I had nowhere else to go

C       B -         F                C
He's an emancipated punk and he can dance
C              B -         F              C
But he's got a hole in the pocket of his pants
C          B -            F                C
Must be a symptom of outstanding circumstances
C       F         C
Woah-o-o-o-oh-oh-o

(etc)

Me and Lazarus, we fiddle with a baby spoon
Fever flowing through the room
Far too long and way too soon
oh oh woah, guess I had nowhere else to go


Me and Lazarus, we pick up papa's white boy blues
Hand-me downs and Sunday shoes
Never made the local news
oh oh woah, guess I had nowhere else to go


And I'm a liberated loser that can roll
But where my pocket was I'm peeking through a hole
A couple second-chances surely would console me
Woah

Good luck to all you fine folks at playing this corking tune!
