DCeep in the belly of a whale I found her
DEmown with the deep blue jail around her
RAmunning her hands through the ribs of the dark
FFlorence and Calamity and JGoan of Arc
IC love the way she looks in her underwear
IEm lose my page then the plot then the book then I swear
SAmhe makes the most of her time by loving me plenty
SFhe knows there’ll come a day when we won’t bGe getting any

TChe stain of the sepia the butcher Crimea
TEmhrough the wreck of a brass band I though I could see her
IAmn a cakewalk she came through the dead and the lame
JFust a little bird floating on a hurGricane
IC was flat on my back with my feet in the thorns
IEm was in between the apples and the chloroform
SAmhe came to me often I was sure I was dying
IFt was always hard to tell if she was laGughing or crying
I thoCught I heard somebody caAmlling
In the dFark I thought I heGard somebody cCall
JCoan never cared about the in-betweens
CEmombed her hair with a blade did the Maid of Orleans
SAmaid Christ walked on water we can wade through the war
YFou don’t need to tell me who theG fire is for
OCh bring me the love that can sweeten a sword
AEm boat that can love the rocks or the shore
TAmhe love of the iceberg reaching out for a wreck
CFan you love me like the crosses love the nGape of the neck?

WCas it Casey Jones or Casey at the Bat
WEmho died out of pride and got famous for that
KAmilled by a swerve laid low by the curve
DFo you ever think they ever thought they gGot what they deserved
PCity the bullet and pity the man
WEmho both find their place in the same sad plan
WAmho both are like the barrel going over the falls
CFrying all the way down I never asGked to be involved
I thoCught I heard somebody caAmlling
In the dFark I thought I heGard somebody cCall

GCeneral George began the day by taking pink little pills
SEment his men to the top of some hell of a hill
TAmhrough the whisper of trees came artillery breeze
HFe said I love the way the wind comes a-tiGckling my knees
JCane shot the apple right between the eyes
IEm was thinking of her when you came outside
LAmemonade on your breath sun in your hair
DFid I mention how I love you iGn your underwear?
DCeep in the belly of a whale I found her
DEmown with the deep blue jail around her
RAmunning her hands through the ribs of the dark
FFlorence and Calamity and JGoan of Arc
I thoCught I heard somebody caAmlling
In the dFark I thought I heGard somebody cCall
I thoCught I heard somebody caAmlling
In the dFark I thought I heGard somebody cCall
