[Em] As if you know [A] the [F#m] story [Bm] of Wallowa [G] Lake, Leviathan [Am] first [C] did indeed, [G] .
where her [Am] children sleep.
She [G] kept them hidden from the plague.

[Em] But have you heard [F#m] the story of my [Bm].
[G] mother's fate?.
She left us in [C] Detroit [Am] in [G] the rain [Am] with a pillowcase.

[G] Fortune for the paperweight.
We [Em] .
followed [A] her to Joseph near the [G] Indian raid.

[G] Spathophilum on his grave.

[Em] And like the [A].

The undertow .
[Am] refrained [G] with the flame of [Am] a feathered snake.
[G] Charybdis in its shallow grave.

[Em] She gave us one [F#m] last feature, the fullness of her [G] face.
In [Em] the shade [C] of hill [G] to your [C] red [Am] Napoleon.
[C] As [G] the demon took her place.

When the [Am] dragon submerged, we knew she [D] had died.
