The Mountain Goats are an American band formed in Claremont, California, by singer-songwriter John Darnielle. The band is currently based in Durham, North Carolina. For many years, the sole member of the Mountain Goats was Darnielle, despite the plural moniker. The Mountain Goats are, for all practical purposes, the endlessly clever and prolific John Darnielle and whatever musicians he surrounds himself with, which means that while the soundscape may change from project to project

Intro:
ECB (x2)
EC there was the sound of a lake boiling over B on that day. E everyone said just to sit still, CB but the thickening air got in my way.
E so the hook's been baited now, CB yeah, the cheese is on the water. E yeah, all the water's been cleansed of all impurities, CB but, but now it really doesn't matter.
ECB the bottom of the boat was a hot-plate come alive. E but the boat wasn't real, and this is how I feel: CB you don't know where you are, until you arrive. E and the frogs sang out from the distant banks. C and you say you need me in california, B but, no thanks!
