Shower Guitar Chords The Mountain Goats

[Intro]
F#m D Bm (x2)

[Verse]
F#m
the blackest storm i ever saw

D Bm
was coming in from omaha

F#m
and the latest news from tokyo was

D Bm
a lot of ugly numbers

F#m
i was checkin’ pay phones for forgotten coins

D Bm
as the clouds came over west des moines

F#m
got into the house got the curtains drawn

D Bm
got into the the shower with all my clothes on

[Chorus]

F#m A E
hey! hey! let the water come down!

F#m A E
hey! hey! let the water come down!

F#m D Bm (x2)

[Verse]

F#m
by noon it was clear that winter’d come

D Bm
and i just let the water run

F#m
and i got soap suds in my eyes

D Bm
and it stung like iodine

F#m
the phone started ringing like a fire alarm

D Bm
and the voice on the machine was brutally calm

F#m
new numbers coming down the wire

D Bm
got into the shower with my eyes on fire

[Chorus]

F#m
hey! hey! let it fall on me,

A E
let it all come down relentlessly!

F#m
you swore that you would stick around

A E
when days like this started coming down!

F#m A E
break out the crystal!

F#m A E
get out the good champagne!

F#m A E
we’re going down

F#m A E
in flames.
