[Intro]
G 7x
[Verse 1]
[Pre-chorus]
F C G
The thing i like most about him is what I see on the surface
D C G Em
Like two distant shores, we are bound by a love that's an isthmus
[Chorus]
F D G Em F D G
Oh Elijah!
G *
[Verse 2]
G * G
Elijah, he lay in psychosis one bright sunny day
G * G
And even in sleep I cannot make myself walk away
G * G
So pretty was he, I said something I couldn't retract
G * G
And so for three years, he spent most of his time in the sack
[Pre-Chorus]
F C G
Although it's November, I know we won't make it to christmas
D C G Em
Like two distant shores, we are bound by a love that's an isthmus
[Chorus]
F D G Em
Oh Elijah!
F D G Em
Oh Elijah!
[Instrumental]
F D G Em F D G
[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 (single strum, mute quickly) G
And now to this day I maintain that I am unrepentant
[Pre-chorus]
F * C * G
All he can see through the tunnel is none of his business
D * C * G Em
Like two distant shores, we are bound by a love that's an isthmus
[Chorus]
F D G Em F D G Em
Oh Elijah!
F D G Em F D G Em
Oh Elijah!
F D G Em F D G Em
Oh Elijah!
F D G Em F D G Em
Oh Elijah!
[Outro]
F D G Em 4x
