Wallowa Lake Monster chords

[INTRO]
[Em] [A] [F#m]
[C] [G] [Am] [F] [C] [G] [C]

[VERSE 1]
[Em]As if you know the st[A]ory of Wallowa L[Em]ake
Leviathan first h[C]id in the d[G]eep where her ch[Am]ildren sleep
She k[D]ept them hi[G]dden from the plague
[Em]But have you heard the st[A]ory of my mother’s f[Em]ate?
[Em]She left us in D[C]etroit [Am]in the r[G]ain with a pil[C]lowcase [Am]
[D]Fortune [G]for the paperweight [C]

[VERSE 2]
We f[Em]ollowed her to Jos[A]eph, near the Indian raid
[G]She [Em]wept among the we[C]eds, hide and [G]seek, for the f[Am]allen chief
Spathiphyll[G]um on his grave
[Em]And like the cedar [A]waxw[F#m]ing, s[A]he was drunk all [G]day
We put her in the s[C]heet, little [G]wreath, candles[Am] on the crate
[D]As the mo[G]nster showed its face

[CHORUS 1]
[D]As she w[C]aits for her children in the s[F]hade
Demogorgon or d[Am]emigod the ghost parade
[A#]No oblation will b[Am]ring her back [C]to our p[D]lace [A]

[C] [G] [A#] [F] [G]

[VERSE 3]
[Em]She stayed within the de[D]ep end of Wallowa L[G]ake
The un[Em]dertow r[C]efrained with the fla[G]me of a fe[Am]athered snake
Cha[G]rybdis in its shallow grave
[Em]She gave us one last fe[A]ature, the fullness of her f[G]ace
[Em]In the shade of "H[C]in-mah-too-ya[G]h…" (Red Nap[Am]oleon)
As the d[G]emon took her place

[CHORUS 2]
[D]As we [C]wait for the waters to r[F]eside
Her remarkable s[Am]toicism and her pride
[A#]When the dragon s[F]ubmerged [Am]we knew she had di[D]ed [A]
