Alpha Desperation March
by The Mountain Goats

GI'm (320003@1)coming in
GTry (320003@1)to stop me
GPush (320003@1)furniture in front of the door
GIt (320003@1)only gives me something to push against
                                DIn (xx0232@1)the full heat of the summer's day
   C (x32010@1)                   GYou're (320003@1)telling me to go away
                                 DBut (xx0232@1)you owe me eight thousand dollars
             GAnd (320003@1)I could use it

GI'm (320003@1)only getting stronger
GYou (320003@1)may have noticed
GBut (320003@1)a head full of memories propels me ever forward
                                 DAnd (xx0232@1)in the living room I don't see where you are
          C (x32010@1)                     GBut (320003@1)the back door's open so you can't have gone far
                                DAnd (xx0232@1)eight thousand dollars is a whole lotta money
            GAnd (320003@1)I could use it

GCould (320003@1)be that it's my imagination
GBut (320003@1)I think I hear you now
GSo (320003@1)come out come out wherever you are
GOllie (320003@1)ollie ollie ollie ollie oxen-freeeee
                                 DSee (xx0232@1)I'm perfectly aware of where our love stands
             C (x32010@1)                     GBut (320003@1)the plain fact is that you owe me eight grand

If it helps to jog your memory
                        DI (xx0232@1)lent it to you one Tuesday when we were drinking
GHa, (320003@1)Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha, A-ha
