Alpha Desperation March

by The Mountain Goats

G

I'm coming in

G

Try to stop me

G

Push furniture in front of the door

G

It only gives me something to push against

                                D

In the full heat of the summer's day

   C                     G

You're telling me to go away

                                 D

But you owe me eight thousand dollars

             G

And I could use it

G

I'm only getting stronger

G

You may have noticed

G

But a head full of memories propels me ever forward

                                 D                              

And in the living room I don't see where you are

          C                       G

But the back door's open so you can't have gone far

                                D

And eight thousand dollars is a whole lotta money

            G

And I could use it

G

Could be that it's my imagination

G

But I think I hear you now

G

So come out come out wherever you are

G

Ollie ollie ollie ollie ollie oxen-freeeee

                                 D

See I'm perfectly aware of where our love stands

             C                       G

But the plain fact is that you owe me eight grand

If it helps to jog your memory

                        D

I lent it to you one Tuesday when we were drinking

G

Ha, Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha, A-ha
