 5   -4 4  -3”

Just as he hit

4 3    1

T-he ground

-3”  -3” -3  4  4  -3  

They lowered a tow that

 5    -4  4   -4  4  -3” 4 3 -3”

Stuck in his neck to the g-i-lls

-3” -3”  -3   4  5  5

Fragments of sobriquets

5 -4   4   -3”

riddle me this

-3”   -3”  -3 4   5 -5 5

three half eaten corneas

-3” -3  4   5 -5 5

who hit the aureole

  6   -5    5 -4

Stalk the ground (x2)

 

CHORUS:

 5    -4    4    4

You should have seen

-3”   4     4   -3”  -4   5   5

The curse that flew right by you

 5   -4   4  4

Page of concrete

 -3”      4      4  -3” -4  5    -4

Stained walks crutch in hobbled sway

5 -4  4  4

Auto-da-fe

-3” 4 4 -3” -3”  -4  5  -4

 A   capillary  hint of red

5 -4  4   4 -3” 4

Only this manupod

 5  -4   4   -4    4  -3” 4 3 -3”

Crescent in shape has es-c-a-ped

 

-3”   5    -4   4  -3”

The house half the way

-3”  -3” -3  4     4  

Fell  empty with teeth

-3     5   -4    4   -4

That split both his lips

 4    -3”  4 3 -3”

Mark these w-o-rds

-3” -3”  -3    4    4 -3    -3”  5 -4   4   -4 4

One day this chalk outline will circle this city

 5  5    7    -7 -6   -7 5    5     7  -7   -6   -7

Was he robbed of the asphalt that cushioned his face

5  7   -7 -6    -7 5 5

A room colored charlatan

 7  -7 -6  -7

Hid in  a safe

 6    -5    5

Stalk the ground

 6    -5   5  -4

Stalk the gro-und

 

[REPEAT CHORUS]

You should have seen

-3”   4     4   -3”  -4   5   5

The curse that flew right by you

 5   -4   4  4

Page of concrete

Stained walks crutch in hobbled sway

5 -4  4  4

Auto-da-fe

-3” 4 4 -3” -3”  -4  5  -4

 A   capillary  hint of red

5 -4  4   4

Everyone knows

-3”  4     5  -4   5 -4   4   -4 4   -3” 4

the last toes are always the coldest to go

Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
