Took me a lot of time to tab this, I hope you enjoy.
Laura Stevenson And The Cans - 'Montauk Monster'
G / Gm G / Gm
I will be a bird, I will be a monster,
C / C7 G / Gm
Sleeping on a perch underneath an overpass.
Em C C7 C
Passers-by will pour their eyes out,
Em C C7 C
Pull at my heart and beg me to move,
Em C C7 C7 (like Intro)
but I do what I'm told and you can not pass through.
verse 2
Gm G G
I will be a train, you will be a stow away,
C G Gm
Creeping down below my steaming locomtive.
Em C C7 C7
And while we pour through a series of tunnels,
Em C C7 C7
I'll pour my boiling water
Em C C7 C7 G
And scald raw every inch of your skin.
this part is also fingerpicked, can't be bothered to tab exactly
B
And what a spectacle,
C Em C G
To see you all unraveled and exposed.
B
Well you got too close,
C Em C
those hangers-on were bound to burn.
Cm E C G Gm
It was only your turn, I warned you, I said, 'Who goes there?'
Em C G Gm
Who goes there?
Em C Gm
(Intro)
normal chords
G
I will be a star, a very bright and shining star,
C G
and I'll have a neutral charge and packed packed particles.
Em C C7
So whenever where you are,
Em C C7
Unless you're fast as hell and you move with me,
Em C C7 G
You'll see a spectral shift the likes of which that you have never seen.
B
And what a spectacle,
C Em G C G
To see me folding in on myself, I implode.
B
Well you got too close,
C Em G C
That field of force, of course you'll explode.
Cm Em C G
You will explode, I warned you, I said, 'Who goes there?'
Em C G (many times)
(also sometimes Em C G Gm during the solo)
End with: Em C C7
