[Eb]
[Bb] [Cm]
[Bb] [Cm]
[Eb]
[Gm] Your class, your caste, your country, [Eb] your name or your tribe.
[Bb] There's people always dying [Cm] trying to keep them alive.
[Bb] There's bodies decomposing [Cm] in containers tonight in [Eb] an abandoned building there.
[Gm] The squad has made a mural [Eb] of a Mexican girl [Bb] with 15 cans of spray paint [Cm] and a chemical swirl.
[Bb] She's standing in the ashes [Cm] at the end of the world [Eb] for winds blowing through her hair.
When great [Cm] [F] Satan's gone, [Cm] [F]
she [Eb] just can't [Bb] sustain the pressure [Eb] where [Bb] it's placed.
[Cm] She caves.
[Gm] [Eb]
[Bb] [Cm]
[Bb] [Cm]
[Eb]
[Bb] [Gm] The Bible's blind with Torah's death, [Eb] the Koran's new.
[Bb] If you burned them all together, [Cm] you'd be close to the truth [Bb] still.
They're pouring over Sanskrit [Cm] from the heavens, the moon's [Eb] washed out of the sun.
[Gm] Cast on the school of meditation [Eb] built to soften the [Bb] tides.
And hold us at the center [Cm] while the spiral [Bb] unwinds.
It's knocking over fences, [Cm] crossing property [Eb] lines, four winds cry until [Bb] it comes.
It's [Cm] the son of [F] man touching [Cm] the land.
[F] A heart [Eb] just can't [Bb] contain all of [Eb] that energy.
[Bb]
Space, [Cm] it breaks.
[F] It breaks.
[Gm] [Eb]
[Gm] [Bb]
[Gm] [Eb]
[F]
[Gm] Well, I went back by running cattle [Eb] like a company jet, [Bb] like a newly orphaned [Cm] refugee retracing my steps.
[Bb] All the way to Casa Deva [Cm] to commune with the [Eb] dead.
They said you [Bb] better look alive.
And [Gm] now I've softened old Dakota [Eb] where a genocide sleeps.
[Bb] In the black hills, the badlands, [Cm] the callous [Bb] east.
I buried my [G] ballast, I made [Cm] my peace [Eb] with four winds leveling the pines.
[Bb] But when [Cm] grace is [F] gone,
[C] [F] she [Eb] just can't [Bb] remain.
It's all [Eb] that outer [Bb] space she [Cm] breaks.
She [F] breaks.
[Cm]
She caves.
[F] [Gm]
