A really *really* deep cut from the Iron & Wine discography. Like so rare that you probably haven’t heard it unless you picked up a bootleg from somewhere! I’m lucky enough to have such a bootleg and it’s a shame that this song should be lost to obscurity--it’s got some great lyrics a great little melody and it’s easy enough for every novice to pick up without any trouble. Key of G no capo. [Verse 1] The girl down the street saw my ghost on the road But I sailed the backyard asleep in my boat Both paddles broken no sail for the wind A bathtub a bottle to drown myself in [Verse 2] And she ran through the town like the end was upon us Screaming like birds above angry high seas The newspaper boys pulled a high-dollar favor And my drunk brother sang of where they could find me [Verse 3] The girl told the preacher her vision of doom He petted the Book said "It’s slightly too soon" A flashbulb a nudge and I left my best dream And rose like the specter of Jasper County
