[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/mountain_goats/going_to_bristol_crd.html ]
B
I looked you up and down
A6
I liked everything I saw
B
From the fragile outline of your hips
A6
To the trembling movement in your jaw
B Bmaj7
But when the coffee cup shattered on the kitchen floor
A E
You said that you couldn't take it anymore
B
I knew you were leaving
A E B
I knew you were going to Bristol
B
I watched you pack your bags
A6
I saw you head out to the door
B
But when the key broke off in the deadbolt lock
A6
You said that you couldn't take it anymore
B Bmaj7
That was the second time you said that in one day
A E
Why don't you just sit still, it's going to be OK
B
Going to Bristol
A E B
I knew you were going to Bristol
The chords during the chorus sound very nice as power chords, but a full barre will do as well.
This song can also be done in the key of C really well, just alternate between C
and F7, and at the chorus use a G and Em
written by some guy on the mountian goats wiki, great tab.
