F             C
all that music in your mouth
       G               Am
rivers rushing at your teeth
         Bb                   F
cresting waves through wading valleys
        Bb            F
flooded language tributaries
            Bb    F    C/G
connect and cover over me
        F                C
tensing jaw & cork screw eyelids
          G                Am
as if you couldn't bare to see
         Bb            F
all that water pouring from you
           Bb                F
collecting clouds inside the ballroom
     Bb     F         C/G       Bb
over people who don't know you
                
but darling i do

               F                     C
you trance yourself back towards the city
          G              Am
blood not moving to your feet
                Bb            F
your foot falls tentative and muffled
    Bb             F
automatic listless shuffle
              Bb      F          C/G     
your sidewalk scatter brain, cry uncle
              F                 C   
you paint yourself back in your corner
             G            Am
and look for her on your t.v.
            Bb             F   
it's friday night and i am hungry
      Bb               F
for a hand, a mouth, a body
         Bb       F       C/G   Bb
a love i wouldn't have to carry

a stitch in my mouth
                Dm

           F/Bb
a concrete canal
                 Dm   G A
in a bomb border town

   Bb          Am
an echo in the rafters
          Dm              G
reminding you there was a sound

but you killed her in  waves

he killed her in waves

but that's not today


(back to palm muting again)

                            Dm
so you breathe through your mouth
                     Bb
try to calm yourself down
                  F
and keep what you found
                 A
and shout it out loud


(And stop palm muting again)

                  Dm
she can hover and hurt
               Bb
or dissolve to dirt
                   F   A
some prayer in you mouth
                     G
and she might stay a steam
              C
so get to the beams
                   F    A
let you figure her out
