This is a favorite, I'm glad I can contribute it for the benefit of others because
it's been a simple but satisfying song to play. There are a couple recordings of this
song and Jeff Mangum sings different lyrics for some of the lines but the chords are
the same.
G-A-C
It's the same three chords repeated throughout, he holds the C chord in a couple places.
GACG
For I am an engine and I'm rolling on
ACG
the world is all bending and breaking from me
(or:through endless revision to say what I mean)
ACG
for sweetness alone who flew out through the window
ACG
and landed back home in a garden of green
ACGACG
you're riding alone in the back of a steamer
ACG
and steaming yourself in the warm shower spray
ACG
and water rolls on off the round captains belly
ACG
who's talking to tigers from his cafeteria tray
ACGACG
and your sweet babies cry for the cool taste of milking
ACG
that milky delight that invited us all
ACG
and if there's a taste in this life more inviting
ACG
than wake up your windows and watch as those sweet babies crawl
ACGACG
awaaay yeah mmm mmm mmm dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
