[Intro]
Am "Your legs walked your heart high Am G Fmaj7 Your whole body, sprawling out, made your view wide"
[Verse 1]
C Dm Am I'm on a boulder over alpine tops I'm peeking Am G Fmaj7 I watched you across the water in the evening
(I watched you from above)
Am G Fmaj7 Into my eye your grays and blues were blown
(To your eyes I'm blown)
Am G Fmaj7 The something that I held onto is leaving Am G Fmaj7 The shape to what I saw has slowly grown
[Interlude]
Fmaj7 You're higher on your hill G So your Big Black Cloud will come Am So your Big Black Cloud will come G And press you to the ground Fmaj7 The air will leave your chest G You'll fade from where you're found Am When you find you're standing still G And your fingers all go numb Fmaj7 Get higher on your hill G So your Big Black Cloud will come Am So your Big Black Cloud will come G And press you to the ground Fmaj7 The air will leave your chest G You'll fade from where you're found Am When you're finally standing still G And your fingers all go numb Fmaj7 Get higher on your hill G So your Big Black Cloud will come
So your Big Black Cloud will
[Verse 2]
Gm Rah! Do you see what happens? Gm Do you see what happens?! Gm When the Big Black Death
N.C.
Breathes on you with his breath
Gm
I'm wild and woollyN.C.
A bloating bully
Gm
I'll strike you down and thenN.C.
I'll strike you down again
N.C.
Do you see what happens? (What?)
N.C.
Do you see what happens? (What?!)
N.C.
When I peel away your bark
N.C.
And stain your blue sky dark
Gm
[Verse 3]
Gm Your breath I take to live Gm Your Death I ache to give Gm So take me in and crumble
N.C.
Be smothered in my rumble!
Gm My flash of thunder booms Gm Your lack of wonder looms Gm I press you to the ground
N.C.
You'll fade from where you're found
Gm

[Outro]
Cmaj7 The way they share Em Fmaj7 (The flesh we tear so innocent of memory) Cmaj7 Em Fmaj7 They feast
(we feast)
Dm Em They invite each bite
(We invite each bite)
Fmaj7
Into flight(Into our flight)
Dm Em Since blood, now wind
(We give our blood to you)
Fmaj7 G Em And feathers from skin begin
(And feathers from skin begin)
Em I am the twilight upon the porch Em A leaf falls into your lap Em I am the candle falling Em Your hands gripping the tablecloth Fmaj7 Dm Em Your eyes only three years old Fmaj7 Em Dm The way they share Dm The memory you did wear Fmaj7 Em Dm And now your song Dm Em Is inside them
