Songs: Ohia

Farewell Transmission

by Songs: Ohia
Songs: Ohia

Biography:

Songs: Ohia was largely a solo project for singer-songwriter Jason Molina (December 30, 1973 – March 16, 2013). Critics and fans alike have found considerable difficulty in trying to define the band's sound, usually settling on more general labels such as indie rock and folk-rock. Most are quick to draw comparisons to Neil Young and Will Oldham, (the latter of which Molina has collaborated with, alongside Alasdair Roberts, as the Amalgamated Sons of Rest).

C# E B
The whole place is dark
Every light on this side of the town
Suddenly it all went down
Now we'll all be brothers of
The fossil fire of the sun
Now we will all be sisters of
The fossil glow of the moon

Someone must have set 'em up
Now they'll be working in the cold gray rock
Now they'll be working in the hot mill steam
Now they'll be working in the concrete
In the sirens and the silences now
All that breaks it apart
All at once, it'll start to be

(Intro Riff)

After tonight if you don't want this to be
A secret out of the past
I will resurrect it, I'll have a good go at it
I'll streak his blood across my beak
Dust my feathers with his ash
Feel his ghost breathing down my neck

I will try, oh whatever I try
I will be gone, but not forever
I will try, oh whatever I try
I will be gone, but not forever

(This verse is played with the intro riff)

The real truth about it is
No one gets it right
The real truth about it is
We're all supposed to try

There ain't no end to the sands I been trying to cross
The real truth about it is
My cargo line's no better off
It's got the map, for if it's lost

We will try, whatever we try
We will be gone, but not forever
Come on, let's try, whatever we try
We will be gone, but not forever

The real truth about it is
There ain't no end to the desert I'll cross
I've really known it all along

C# C#m B E
Mama here comes midnight with the dead moon it's jaws
C# C#m B
Must be the big star about to fall

C# C#m G#m
Long dark blues
Will-o'-the-wisp
The big star is falling
Through the static and distance
A farewell transmission
