Verse 1:

G D C
At your house the smell of our still living human bodies and oven gas


You pray to nothing out loud

G Em C
Two first names and an ampersand embroidered proudly on a kitchen towel


G D C D
You're a beautiful and violent work with the skinny neck of a Chinese bird

G D
in a fading ancient painting.

Em C G
And if you're in heaven waiting you made it there fighting

D C D
the tightest kite string in a bad storm with lightning.


Chorus:

Em G C/E Em/G
And now these few presidents frowning in my pocket

C Em/B D C G/B D
can persuade no god to let me let you talk.

Em G C/E Em/G
And now these few presidents frowning in my pocket

C G/B D C G/B D
can persuade no god to let me let you off.


G D
Even though I haven't seen you in years

C D Em D C
yours is a funeral I'd fly to from anywhere.


Verse 2:

G D
I thought I had a pebble in my sock

Em C
I pulled it off and shook out a wasp

G D
It stumbled out lost and without a pause

Em C
unstung as I was, still I stomped it.


Em C
I thought "There is no paved street worthy

Em C
of your perfect Scandinavian feet."

Em C
My crooked chinese fingers groped

Em C D
the machinery of your throat.


Em
Repeat Chorus, end on "anywhere."
