Em                         Em7       Em Em7
A skull and a jewel on a wooden cane

Em                    Em7          Em               Em7
A rattling bone on a boat, on the waves you sail away

        G               Bm               Em  Em7 Em Em7
I will lay awake until all your power’s gone

Whipping the pig until it broke the gate

Em                        Em7               Em                Em7
A table and chair by the creek though his house was washed away

I will lay awake until all your power’s gone

God is asleep in the bed we made
Suckling bitch on the porch, and no stick might draw away
        F#              A#m              D#m
I will lay awake until all your power’s gone

D#m7
Love in the shape of the close of day
Kissing the face in a dream that I thought I tossed away
        F#              A#m              D#m
I will lay awake until all your power’s gone

Hobble and wade in the love we gave

Dm                         Dm7              Dm               Dm7
Passing your lip from the wine that we raised then threw away

        F               Am                Dm Dm7 Dm Dm7 Dm Dm7 Dm Dm7
I will lay awake until all your power’s gone

Chuckling lamb by the anchor weight

Dm                    Dm7           Dm               Dm7
Shuddering wolf on a ship, on the waves you sail away

        F               Am                Dm Dm7
I will lay awake until all your power’s gone
