The Mountain Goats - Baboon

^Am7 The sun came^Am up above the st^Am7range, white pl^Amain ^Am7Blood red fl^Amowers all w^Am7et with ra^Amin And the ^Cspirit wasn't really willing anymore ^EBut the flesh was very, very strong

I've got ^Fvery little money left And I've ^Egot no sense But I'll have ^Amnone of your goddamned im^Dmpudence ^Am The sun came up above the new, ^Ewhite fields ^Am7Everything was n^Amew again ^{Am7 Am}

^G Pure power stripped of ^Ammeaning S^Eky burning, spring ^Am7cleaning ^Am

^Am7Daisies on the ^Amhillside like ^Am7cancer on the ^Amskin ^Am7Pretty, little, ^Amyellow eyes that ^Am7flutter in the ^Amwind I'd be grateful^C my children aren't here to see this^E If you'd ever seen fit to give me ^Am7children ^Am

And my d^Fefenses may be working with a ^Eskeleton crew But I'll be s^Amkinned alive before I'l^Dml take this from you ^Am The sun came up above the ocean^E out west ^Am7 All the c^Amolors of the ^Am7rainbow ^Am

Stand up ^Gstraight, you can see the house ^Amleaning Day ^Ebreaking, spring ^Am7cleaning ^Am
