G C D x2
VERSE 1
G C D
You slept in your overalls
G C D
After the wrecking ball
G C D
Bereft you of house and home
G C D
And left you with sweet fuck-all
CHORUS
Em
So we got in your car
C
With our kickabout hearts
Am D
And we hollered out 'sweet clementine'
VERSE 2
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/decemberists/clementine_crd_ver_2.html ]
G C D
Tell your mom to marry us
G C D
A candle to carry us
G C D
Cans on our bicycle fenders
G C D
So sweet and hilarious
CHORUS
Em
And we'll find us a home
C
Built of packaging foam
Am D
That will be there 'til after we die
BRIDGE
G C D x5
VERSE 3
G C D
And, I'll play the clarinet
G C D
Use clamshells for castanets
G C D
We play with our bags on our shoulders
G C D
My sweet lady lioness
CHORUS
Em
And I watch as you sleep
C
So indelibly deep
Am D
And I hum to you sweet clementine
(G C D) x5
