Guitar chords with lyrics

This tab shows how to play Modern Baseball's cover of the song 'Palmcorder
Yajna,' originally written and performed by The Mountain Goats. You can watch a

Modern Baseball's version of the song is in a different key than the original
and has some changes to the chord progressions in the choruses, so it seems
worthy of having its own tab. The song is played in standard tuning with no
capo. The chord voicings used throughout the song are given below:

Verse 1:
E B F#m A
E B F#m A B
E   B
 Holt Boulevard
F#m        A
Between Garey and White
E                 B
Hooked up with some friends at the Travelodge
F#m           A   B
Set ourselves up for the night

Verse 2:
E           B
Carpenter ants in the dresser
F#m     A
Flies in the screen
E             B
It will be too late by the time we learn
F#m        A    B
What these cryptic symbols mean

Chorus 1:
   Esus    Esus4
And I dreamt of a house
      Esus            Esus4
Haunted by all you tweakers with your hands out
    Esus           Esus4
And the headstones climbed up the hills
    Esus           Esus4 B
And the headstones climbed up the hills

Verse 3:
E           B
Send somebody out for soda
F#m             A
Comb through the carpet for clues
E           B
Reflective tape on our sweatpants
F#m       A   B
Big holes in our shoes

Verse 4:
E       B
 Every couple minutes
    F#m              A
Someone says he can't stand it anymore
E         B
Laugh lines on our faces
F#m        A   B
Scale maps of the ocean floor

Chorus 2:
   Esus    Esus4
And I dreamt of a camera
    Esus          Esus4
Pointed out from inside the television
    Esus         Esus4
And the aperture yawning and blinking
    Esus           Esus4
And the headstones climbed up the hills

Bridge:
G#m  A       E *  Esus4 * E *
If anybody comes to see me
G#m         A       E *  Esus4 * E *
Tell them they just missed me by a minute
G#m    A       E *
If anybody comes into our room while we're asleep
A      E *    A     B
I hope they incinerate everybody in it

Chorus 3:
   C#m7 Badd4   Asus2  Amaj9
And I dreamt   of a factory
      C#m7  Badd4     Asus2
Where they manu - facture what I needed
   E *  Badd4 Asus2
Using shi - ny new machines
    E *    Badd4     Asus2
