Jaipur - The Mountain Goats


Intro - [E E D Dsus4]x4

E                             D       Dsus4
i was having visions of sugar pastry

E                             D       Dsus4
cooked up in clarified butter

E                  D            Dsus4
i tried to turn my visions into prayers

E                         D              Dsus4
but i built my castle way high up in the air

       E                        D
yeah i came to the gates of the fabled pink city

Am7
hungry, and tired, and cold

      E         D
swing low sweet chariot

Am7                      G         D
chrome tail pipe shining bright as spun gold


[E E D Dsus4]x4


E                                   D       Dsus4
my brothers picked me up out of the rushes

E                  D          Dsus4
handed me into the company of evil men

         E                      D       Dsus4
but I've inched my way down the eastern seaboard

E              D       Dsus4
i am coming to Atlanta again

       E                        D
yeah i came to the gates of the fabled pink city

Am7
hungry, and tired, and mad as all hell
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/mountain_goats/jaipur_crd.html ]
      E                 D
swing low sweet jewel-encrusted chariot

Am7                 G       D
make me young again make me well


[E E D Dsus4]x4


E                          D         Dsus4
i am the killer dressed in pilgrim's clothing.

E                                    D  Dsus4
i'm the hard to find stations on the AM band.

E                  D         Dsus4
i am the white sky high over tripoli

E                  D             Dsus4
i am the land mine hidden in the sand.

       E                        D 
yeah i came to the gates of the fabled pink city

Am7
hungry, and tired, and alone

      E                     D 
swing low sweet sweet sweet chariot

       G        D
coming forth to carry me home


[E E D Dsus4]x4



Notes:

*Dsus4 is this version:

||-X-||
||-3-||
||-0-||
||-0-||
||-0-||
||-X-||

*He sometimes goes back and forth between D and Dsus4 more than just once

*He's probably doing something up on the high e string during the D and Dsus4
 chords but I couldnt tell for sure

*During the verses when he plays E it goes like this:

||-0-0-0-0---0-0---||
||-0-0-0-0---0-0---||
||-1-1-1-1---1-1---||
||-2-2-2-2---2-2---||
||-2-2-0-2---2-2---||
||-0-0-0-0---0-0---||

*There's no Am7 part on the last chorus it just goes straight to the G and D.
 It's a little tricky but if you listen to the song you can figure it out.
