[Em] [E] The [A]
[E] [A]
[E] day I turned [A] my back on all you people I [G] [E] felt [D] an itching [A] in my thumbs
[C#m] Salt [E] air like a broadcast [F#m] from the distant [B] dark beyond
[A] When my transformation comes [E] [A] I went down to the warm, warm water
[E] [D] Saw a [A] pelican fly past [E] Waved once at the highway
[F#m] And then left all [B] that behind me [A] [D] I went wading [A] through the [Dm] grass
[A] But [Bm] [B] no one was gonna [A] come and get me [Bm] There wasn't [B] anybody [A] gonna know
[F#m] Even [D] though I leave a [C#] trail of burnt things [F#m] in my wake
[A] [D] Every single [A] place I [Dm] go [A] [G] [E] [D]
[A] [E] [D]
[A] [E] [D] And it was cool, [A] and it was quiet
[E] [D] In the humid [A] marsh down there I [C#m] [E] let my head sink [F#m] down beneath the [B] braggage water
[A] [D] Felt it gumming [A] up my hair The [E] sun [Am] was sinking into [A] the Atlantic
The [Em] [E] last [A] time that I turned my back on you [C#m] I tried [E] to summon up a [F#m] little [B] prayer
As I went under [A] It [Bm] was the best that [A] I could do
[Bm] And I said, let them [B] all fare better [A] than your servant
[Bm] The reed's all [C#] pricking [A] at my skin [F#m] Here's hoping [D] they have better [C#m] luck
Than I had [B] down here with them [A] [Bm] All that water [A] rushing in
