Biography:
Mount Eerie represents the latest evolution of Phil Elverum's musical vision. Formerly known as The Microphones, Phil changed his project's name to Mount Eerie while maintaining his subtle, lo-fi, and lyrically dense fuzz-folk aesthetic.
Elverum explained this change in an 2003 interview with Discorder, asserting that "Mount Eerie is a new project. The Microphones was completed, or at least at a good stopping point. I did it because I am ready for new things. I am new."

[Intro]
Em/G Em/F# Em
[Verse 1]
Em/G Em/F# Em
Our daughter is one and a half
Em/G Em/F# Em
You have been dead eleven days
[Chorus]
C/G D/F#
I got on the boat and came to the place
Em/G Em/F# Em
Where the three of us were going to build our house
Em/G Em/F# Em
If you had lived
C/G
You died though
D/F#
So I came here alone
[Verse 2]
Em/G Em/F# Em
with our baby and the dust of your bones
[Chorus]
C/G D/F# Em/G Em/F# Em
I can't remember, were you into Canada geese?
C/G D/F#
Is it significant
Em/G Em/F# E
These hundreds on the beach?
[Verse 3]
Em/G Em/F# E
Or were they just hungry
Em/G Em/F# E
For mid-migration seaweed?
[Chrous]
C/G D/F#
What about foxgloves
Em/G Em/F# Em
Is that a flower you liked?
C/G D/F#
I can't remember
Em/G Em/F# Em
You did most of my remembering for me
[Verse 4]
Em/G Em/F# Em
And now I stand untethered
Em/G Em/F# Em
In a field full of wild foxgloves
[Chorus]
C/G D/F#
Wondering if you're there
Em/G Em/F# Em
Or if a flower means anything
C/G D/F#
And what could anything mean
Em/G Em/F# Em
In this crushing absurdity
[Verse 5]
Em/G Em/A Em/B
I brought a chair from home
Em/G Em/A Em/B
I'm leaving it on the hill
Em/G Em/A Em/G
Facing west and north
Em/G Em/A Em/G
And I poured out your ashes on it
Em/G Em/A Em/G
I guess so you can watch the sunset
Em/G Em/A Em/G
But the truth is I don't think of that dust as you
Em/G Em/A Em/G
C/G
You are the sunset
Em/G Em/F# Em
