Ellijah

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

[Pre-Chorus]
      F                      C    
The thing i like most about him is
                  G
 what I see on the surface
      F                        
Like two distant shores, we are 
  C                        G      
bound by a love that’s an isthmus
   E


[Chorus]
F  D   G
Oh Elijah!

[Verse 2]
G
Elijah, he lay in psychosis one 
bright sunny day
G
and even in sleep I cannot make 
myself walk away

G
So pretty was he, I said something I
 couldn’t retract
G
and so for three years, he spent 
most of his time in the sack

[Pre-Chorus]
F                        C       
Although it’s November, I know we
                    G
 won’t make it to christmas
F                             
Like two distant shores, we are 
  C                          G    
bound by a love that’s an isthmus
     E


[Chorus]
F   D   G     E
Oh Elijah!

F   D   G
Oh Elijah!

[Verse 3]
G
Elijah once told me in private that 
he’d like a break
G
although he revealed through his 
actions that he was a fake
G
And so, then in public I told him 
that he’s too dependent
G
and now to this day I maintain that 
I am unrepentant

[Pre-chorus]
F                           C    
All he can see through the tunnel
                   G
 is none of his business
F                             
Like two distant shores, we are 
  C                           G   
bound by a love that’s an isthmus
   E


[Chorus]
F  D  G       E
Oh Elijah!

F  D  G       E
Oh Elijah!

F  D  G       E
Oh Elijah!

F  D  G       E
Oh Elijah!
