[N] [F] [Ab] I was [Eb] a quick, wet boy [Bb] diving too [C] deep for coins
All of your [Ab]
straight line eyes wide on my [Bb] plastic toys
Then when [Eb] the cops closed the fair I cut [Cm] my long baby hair
And stole me a [Ab]
dodean map, and called for [Bb] you everywhere
Have [Eb] I found you,
[F] [Cm] lightless bird, [Ab]
jealous?

[Eb] Weepin' all lost you, [Bb]

[Ab] Big Bill [Bb]

Now [Eb] I'm a fat house cat nursing my [Cm] sore blunt tongue
Watching [Ab] the war boys and rats go through [Bb] the white fence cracks
Gossing on [Eb]
magazine photos, [Cm] those fish letters
[Eb]
Drowning the [Ab] cold and dream, blood of [Bb] Christ's mountain stream
Have [Eb] I found you,
[Cm]
lightless bird,
[Ab] drowned in a [Bb] tree?
Weepin' [Eb]
all lost you,
