Lillian, Egypt
by Josh Ritter

chords figured out by Matt Rowley
(thanks to Brandon Cripps for fixing the chorus!)
(thanks to Chris Walmsley for figuring out the electric guitar riffs!)

F
I remember back in Illinois I found her 
Am7                                               Dm
The lily of the valley the lily of the West was a rose 
F                                      
The daughter of the biggest big town banker 
Am7                                                        Gm
He kept her like a princess I stole her like the Fort Knox gold

F
She used to pour Four Roses like it was going down the chimney 
Am7                                                    Dm
Like the bottle was on fire or the boiler was about to blow 
F
She was up on the table when we hit Missouri 
Am7                                                      Gm
Dancing with a movie man he was holding her a little too close

Dm7           Am7         Gm
La didi da da da da da da da!
*Riff* 

F
He made her the star of the silent movies 
Am7                                                                      Dm
But all she did was mouth the words all she did was mouth the words, "Oh no!" 
F
And he cast me as the villain as the sheriff's worst enemy 
Am7                                              Gm
I practiced falling off of buildings and out windows

Dm7           Am7         Gm
La didi da da da da da da da! 
*Riff*

F
The last time I saw she was tied to the train tracks 
Am7                                                Dm
I was back there with the extras riding on a tiger roan 
F
The villain on the left with the studio mustache 
Am7                                               Gm
Winking at Lillian blowing kisses from the second row

Dm7           Am7         Gm
La didi da da da da da da da! 
*Riff*
