This is an old revision of the document!


The song is in D flat, so like many early Mountain Goats songs, the guitar is tuned a half-step down. He does a riff during the intro between some of the chords. I think its just:

e|—5–3—2—3———-| B|——————-3—–| G|————————-| D|————————-| A|————————-| E|————————-|

Could be wrong, not super great at hearing out riffs. There might also be a different riff thrown in there, but I can’t make it out.

Intro

D riff G riff D A x2

D G Selling new flowers outrageously cheap D A Freshly cut daisies, twenty-five cents each

   D                                               G

You loved me when you could keep your losses down

                          D              A

But winter's coming around now, now, now, now

D riff G riff D A x2

D G The girl at the flower shop is kind and young D A She made accurate change for me, I let the change come

       D                                     G

And you loved me when it was cheap to do so

                               D              A

Can you feel the cold wind blow now, now, now, now?
