Brash fields crude crows

In a scary sky

The madman hangs in fancy homes

He'd drag them through Turbulent Indigo

"I'm a burning hearth" he said

"People see the smoke

But no one wants to warm themselves

                 B  B7
Sloughing off a coat

And all my little landscapes

        E             A
All my yellow afternoons

F#                     B
Stack up around this vacancy

F#                     B
Like dirty cups and spoons

      B7
No mercy Sweet Jesus!

    Em                   B
No mercy from Turbulent Indigo
