Chords for the Mountain Goats - Clean Slate (Official Lyric Video)

_ _ _ [C] _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [C] One for me, St.
Louis, with a scar beneath his eye
_ Left the kitchen spotless [F] on the day he said goodbye
[F#] Riga-way republic [Am] dude, supremely filthy mouth
[C] Copiah, Mississippi, _ [F] points much [G] further south
There's [C] never light outside [F] yet
[G] When they climb into [C] the van
_ _ [F] _ _ [G] _
_ [C] _ Remember that [F] you're a barrel
[G]
Forget the [C] ones you came _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Leave home feeling empty
[F] Change planes in Taipei
[C] Stay awake the whole time
End [F] up several worlds away
[D] The house was almost full that [Am] day
They made a space for you
[Em] This world is sad and broken
[Em] Gotta fix a [G] crack or two
[C] _ Last until [F] you're arrested
[G] Climb back onto [C] the caravan
_ _ _ [F] _ _ [A] _
_ [C] Remember _ [F] that you're a barrel
[G]
Forget the [C] ones you came _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] And [D] then just [C] when you think
You've learned [F] how to forget _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Am] You'll learn it's just the [G] ones who haven't risen to [F] the surface yet _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] Absence after absence, [F] deep place to care
[C] _ This will be the last time that I do this, I'm pretty sure
[D] No one lasts for [D] long in this profession
[Am] So they say, _ [Em] _ _ _ [F] maybe see you again [G] someday
_ [C] _ Every end [F] point fixed forever
[G] On the day his arc [C] began
_ _ _ [F] _ _ [A] _
[C] Remember _ that [F] you're a barrel
[G] Forget the ones you [Am] came
Forget _ [D] _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ [G] _ [G] the ones you [C] came
_ _ _ [F] _ _ [G] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [A] _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [G] _
_ [B] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
