Chords for Ellijah by Lake Street Dive. I love this song and the chords are really easy.
There are quite a few little guitar solos inbetween the G chord, which are mostly just
freestyle. I haven't figured that out yet so this is purely just chords. Enjoy!!!:)))
(all the verses are simply just G and some licks)
[Verse 1]
G
Elijah has brains and long legs and wears jeans at his hip
G
and nary a girl in the world has been missed by his grip
G
He’s long curly hair, that when wet, goes as far as his chin
G
and his knowledge of poets and punks is debatably thin
[Pre-Chorus]
F C G
The thing i like most about him is what I see on the surface
F C G E
Like two distant shores, we are bound by a love that’s an isthmus
[Chorus]
F D G
Oh Elijah!
[Verse 2]
G
Elijah, he lay in psychosis one bright sunny day
G
and even in sleep I cannot make myself walk away
G
So pretty was he, I said something I couldn’t retract
G
and so for three years, he spent most of his time in the sack
[Pre-Chorus]
F C G
Although it’s November, I know we won’t make it to christmas
F C G E
Like two distant shores, we are bound by a love that’s an isthmus
[Chorus]
F D G E
Oh Elijah!
F D G
Oh Elijah!
[Verse 3]
G
Elijah once told me in private that he’d like a break
G
although he revealed through his actions that he was a fake
G
And so, then in public I told him that he’s too dependent
G
and now to this day I maintain that I am unrepentant
[Pre-chorus]
F C G
All he can see through the tunnel is none of his business
F C G E
Like two distant shores, we are bound by a love that’s an isthmus
[Chorus]
F D G E
Oh Elijah!
F D G E
Oh Elijah!
F D G E
Oh Elijah!
F D G E
Oh Elijah!
[Outro]
F D G E
