From NPR:
The Heligoats — a strange name for a guy strumming a guitar, but oddly befitting someone who stuffs his songs with so many sideways ideas and observations. Given the yarns he spins here, it's easy to imagine Otepka envisioning a herd of goats with propellers and setting the concept to music.

C#m F#m
Twenty six point two, you just took it on the chin
B3 E3 Emaj7
Cause this was the race they made you want to win to soon find
C#m F#m E3
home base to be no place alone
C#m F#m
And they called the lines on your face, The knots in your knees
B3 E3 Emaj7
The kids calling your name out to the middle of the street,
C#m F#m E3
so into dreams, you tie your shoe strings and then you go
Am E Am E Am E Am
But here’s the hard part. You never want to stop. Once you start, No you never want to
C#m F#m B3 E3 Emaj7 C#m F#m E3
C#m F#m
And when they all yelled “Run away” I heard “Be my guest”
B3 E3 Emaj7
I thought I’d already caught you in some sort of safety net or spider web or
C#m F#m E3
wedding dress. I thought for sure your busy legs would never shred
C#m F#m
But like a bomb threat on the goodyear blimp
B3 E3 Emaj7
There’s a lost ambulance flirting with an early ending
C#m F#m E3
and a safe bet to a last breath I saw it coming, now what’s next?
Am E Am E Am E Am E
Well here’s the hard part. You never want to stop. Once you start, No you never want to
Am E
Lose your life savings, then find them there waiting behind you
Am E
Cut out immediate greediness of any finish line fool.
Am E
Cross out the grading, degrading, start digging your way up
Am E
Take off your number, throw your hands in the air, hallelujah
Am E
Brace up the bones that don’t do it on their own, that’s what you are.
Am E
You cover my ceiling in rubber cement and those glow in the dark stars
Am E Am E Am E
You are my best friend. And I’m yours til death. And if we just step aside.
Am E Am E Am E
I know this race will end. And we’ll come into our own. We’ll come out of our shell
Am E Am E
We’ll start seeing the heavens. And beating the hells.
Am E Am E
Out of all control. Now out of our own bodies
Am E Am E (C#m F#m B3 E3 Emaj7 C#m F#m E3)
I know the right me starts when, the wrong stops running
Twenty six point two, you just took it on the chin
B3 E3 Emaj7
Cause this was the race they made you want to win to soon find
C#m F#m E3
home base to be no place alone
C#m F#m
And they called the lines on your face, The knots in your knees

C#m F#m E3
