Montauk Lyrics

The Alexandria Quartet - Montauk
This song is originally played by two electric guitars, however, since I mostly
play acoustic and only have two hands, I decided to tab a campfire-friendly
version for one half decent performer. Please enjoy, and post your own darn
version if you disagree :) Yeah, and buy the album, it's pretty good!
Intro: D D/Db G6 Em7 (x2)
(strummed and half picked, listen to the song for timing.)
Verse: Rain hits my head hard, It seems like this never will stop
I close my eyes, and I'm like a girl in a crib
Afraid of what might come, but too scared to miss it, I know
I wouldn't miss you
for the world
Intro 2: D D/Db G6 Em7
Verse: But I'm so lonely, well, I guess I have myself to blame
Cause I led you north, and I can't stop thinking of you
You remind me of somebody else, someone you'd have seen in a film
And I wouldn't miss you
Bridge: for the world
So then I pick up my guitar
And describe you in a song
Like so many else did,
But not exactly the same way as I
Cause I describe your peculiar figure
And then I form a peculiar song
And by then you'll have made a difference
Chorus: D D/Db
Oh, let me take you to Montauk
Cause that's where we're meant to be
We'll hit the road when you come back
And I'll walk you to the beach
Solo: D D/Db G6 Em7
im7
im7
(chords only, play around with them for something more interesting, or
call a friend with a Stratocaster)
Chorus: Oh, let me take you to Montauk
Cause that's where I'm meant to be
We'll hit the road when you come back
And I'll take you to the beach
I know you'd like to see the beach
Outro: D D/Db G6 Em7 (x2)
End on Em7, let ring on the last couple of notes.
