Just an ordGinary day, I knew that autCumn was on it's way, I could sGee by the gilt of the clouds, the burnishC on the bay, A ring Gof effusia settled on theC city like a vision of the future Am Am/BBefore the scalesC fell away, AmA vision of the future lookiAm/Bng more than just okay,C D GA good feeling C GYes, just a good feeling C And it only happens now and then - Out of the mouth Gof a black dog, C Out of the terrorsG of 3 am, C Out of the dark andG whispering fen, C I was blAmind then I could seeAm/B, now I'm blind agCain.

So I hollered up to Jill, "Come down from the mountain, your ears are 'a burning, My speech is a fountain, it's been another long year But you know I'm not counting, I dreamed you like you dreamed me, O the bomb dreamed the fuse and the drowner dreamed the sea", What a strange feeling... Yes, it's a strange feeling And it only happens now and then - Out of the mouth of a black dog, Out of the terrors of 3 am, Out of the dark and whispering fen, I was blind then I could see, now I'm blind again. Most of the Aegean Sea rushes into my bedroom and glitters for me, The hills of Gallipoli all throw up their bones for my industry, So I build from the charnel the ale house, I build from the tomb a palace of dreams, That old barren rockface got silver seams for a miner of middling means, Singing poems of dissolution and schemes - My penny whistles, lo! Now I summon up Jack, sat up on the hill, The wrong kind of music, the wrong kind of pill, Impotent as a potato but still pleading "Give it up Mary, But not by degrees..." A portrait of Jack, a study in sin, well I knew of myself before I knew of him, Now even I couldn't tell ya just who it is asking "Give it up Mary, but not by degrees, Give it up Mary, your virtue, please..." Into the mouth of a black dog - I go Into the terrors of 3 am - I go Into the dark and whispering fen - I go I was blind then blind again Into the mouth of a black dog - I go Into the terrors of 3 am - I go Into the dark and whispering fen - I go O what beast has my name on it's snaggle tooth, And eternal slobber for my finishing youth? My penny whistles low.
