*The Decemberists* Album: Castaways and Cutouts Song: July, July! INTRO E VERSE I

^AThere is a ^Broad that meets the ^Eroad that goes to ^Dmy house ^Aand how the ^Bgreen grows ^Ethere. ^AAnd we got ^Bspecial boots that ^Ebeat the path to ^Dmy house and it's ^Acareful, and it's ^Bcareful when I'm ^Ethere.

VERSE II And I say your uncle was a crooked French Canadian and he was gunshot running gin and how his guts were all suspended in his fingers and how he held'em, how held'em, held'em in. PRE-CHORUS

And the ^F#mwater rolls down the ^Edrain. The ^F#mwater rolls down the ^Edrain. O what a ^Dlonely thing! In a ^Elonely drain!

CHORUS

^A Ju^Dly, Ju^Ely, Ju^Dly ^Anever ^Dseamed so ^Estrange ^A Ju^Dly, Ju^Ely, Ju^Dly ^Anever ^Dseamed so^E, never ^Dseamed so ^Astrange. ^D ^E

VERSE III This is the story of the road that goes to my house and what ghosts do there remain. And all the thoughts that run the length and breadth of my house and the chickens, how they rattle chicken chains. Verse IV And we'll remember this when we are old and ancient, though the specifics might be vague. And I'll say your camisole was a sprightly light magenta when in fact it was a nappy bluish gray. REPEAT PRE-CHORUS REPEAT CHORUS END on E
