This is a favorite, I'm glad I can contribute it for the benefit of others because it's been a simple but satisfying song to play. There are a couple recordings of this song and Jeff Mangum sings different lyrics for some of the lines but the chords are the same. G-A-C It's the same three chords repeated throughout, he holds the C chord in a couple places. G A C G For I am an engine and I'm rolling on A C G the world is all bending and breaking from me (or:through endless revision to say what I mean) A C G for sweetness alone who flew out through the window A C G and landed back home in a garden of green A C G A C G you're riding alone in the back of a steamer A C G and steaming yourself in the warm shower spray A C G and water rolls on off the round captains belly A C G who's talking to tigers from his cafeteria tray A C G A C G and your sweet babies cry for the cool taste of milking A C G that milky delight that invited us all A C G and if there's a taste in this life more inviting A C G than wake up your windows and watch as those sweet babies crawl A C G A C G awaaay yeah mmm mmm mmm dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee A C G A C G
