Lake Street Dive - Ellijah

^GElijah has brains and long legs and wears jeans at his hip ^GAnd nary a girl in the world has been missed by his grip ^GHis long curly hair, that when wet, goes as far as his chin ^GAnd his knowledge of poets and punks is debatably thin

The th^Fing i like most about h^Cim is what I see on the^G surface Like t^Fwo distant shores, we are b^Cound by a love that’s an ^Gisthmus ^E

^FOh ^DElij^Gah! [Interlude] F D G

^GElijah, he lay in psychosis one bright sunny day ^GAnd even in sleep I cannot make myself walk away ^GSo pretty was he, I said something I couldn’t retract ^GAnd so for three years, he spent most of his time in the sack

^FAlthough it’s November, I^C know we won’t make it to ch^Gristmas ^FLike two distant shores, we are ^Cbound by a love that’s an i^Gsthmus ^E

^FOh E^Dlija^Gh! ^{E F}Oh E^Dlija^Gh!

^GElijah once told me in private that he’d like a break ^Galthough he revealed through his actions that he was a fake ^GAnd so, then in public I told him that he’s too dependent ^GAnd still to this day I maintain that I am unrepentant

^FAll he can see through the t^Cunnel is none of his bus^Giness ^FLike two distant shores, we are ^Cbound by a love that’s an is^Gthmus ^E

^FOh ^DEli^Gjah^E! ^FOh ^DEli^Gjah^E! ^FOh ^DEli^Gjah^E! ^FOh ^DEli^Gjah^E!
