Biography:
Ugly Casanova is an American band on Sub Pop Records. The band has only released one album: Sharpen Your Teeth. The band is a side project of Modest Mouse singer, Isaac Brock and Holopaw member, John Orth; initially, however, the band's origins were a mystery.
The legend of Ugly Casanova was based around the character of Edgar Graham, a.k.a. "Ugly Casanova", who (according to the Ugly Casanova press release) met the band Modest Mouse while backstage at a concert in Denver, Colorado.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
These are the basic chords used throughout the song. I'll show you the
inversions that I usually like to use when playing it that better fits to
the melody. You'll probably develop your own style but this is a good start
to work off of.

G D Bm
i wish that you would move to the sun
F#m
cause you're like diggin' holes in thin air
G
and we know that can't be done.
G D Bm
i wish that you would cheat with someone
F#m
cause you're like diggin' holes in water
G
and we know that can't be done
G
bravery and stupidity go hand in hand
D Bm
i guess that makes me the bravest man
F#m
i was quick to learn but slow to understand
G
well, what can you do
G
my theories are borrowed from somewhere else
D Bm
and i never had too many to talk about
F#m
but you were real quick, you were quick to point out
G
well, that was borrowed too
*I added in Bm even though it really isn't necessary in here but it goes
along and helps with transitioning to the F#m so it's your choice if you'd
like to add it in.
Here are the rest of the lyrics to song obtained from songmeanings.net.
i wish that you would move to the sun
cause you're like diggin' holes in thin air
and we know that can't be done
i wish that you would cheat with someone
cause you're like diggin' holes in water
and we know that can't be done
bravery and stupidity go hand in hand
and i guess that makes me the bravest man
i was quick to learn but slow to understand
well, what can you do
rhetoric and smalltalk are marching on
and i probably am the biggest pawn
cause i was quick to talk and the first to carry on
well, what can you do
you need a permit if you're gonna build shit
and you can't get one so nothing gets built
and your house is standing on a foot and a half of silt
i wish that you would move to the sun
cause you're like diggin' holes in thin air
and we know that can't be done
i wish that you would cheat with someone
cause you're like diggin' holes in water
and we know that can't be done
