Biography:
In March 2003, while on tour, Jason Molina (born December 30, 1973; died March 16, 2013) announced that he would rename his band (Songs: Ohia) Magnolia Electric Co.

The Last Three Human Words
Magnolia Electric Co.
[Verse]
Dm
I know how you feel
Like your soul could use the rest
C
But you’re not my girl anymore
You’re a ghost in the west
G
And tonight you’re gonna make it
Dm
Down the black road alone
[Verse]
Dm
Don’t cry now
Cause you’re so much better off
C
You’re none of what you were
But you’re everything you lost
G
And whatever you got back after that
Dm
Is worth whatever it cost
[Verse]
Dm C G Dm
You can climb to the top of the wall
Dm C G Dm
You can look down on it all
Dm C G Dm
You can never tell what you saw
[Verse]
Dm
Remember when you got here
How the bending willows hung
C
How your eyes stung from the mercury
And you found on your tongue
G
All the words to all the songs you were sure
Dm
Only the night could have sung
[Verse]
Dm C G Dm
And all the way down gospel street
Dm C G Dm
A dead bird was hauling an ivory box
Dm C G
Back from redemption
Dm C G
You just buried the last chance you got
[Verse]
Dm C G Dm
And all the way down locust street
Dm C G Dm
A black ox was hauling a white willow box
Dm C G
Back from oblivion
Dm C G Dm
He just dug up the last chance you got
[Verse]
Dm C G Dm
He said the last three human words
Dm C G Dm
Were the same as the first three words
Dm C G Dm
Don’t you ever wonder what they were?
