[Intro 1]
[C][Em][C][Em][C][Em][C][Em]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[G]At your house
The smell of our [D]still- living
human bodies and oven gas
[C]You pray to nothing out loud
[G]Two first names and [Em]an
ampersand
Embroidered [C]proudly on
a kitchen towel

[Verse 2]
You're [G]a beautiful and viol[D]ent work
With the [C]skinny neck of [G]a C[D]hinese bird
In [G]a fading ancient [D]painting
And if [Em]you're in heaven wait[C]ing
You made it there [G]fighting
The tightest kite [D]string
In a bad storm with [C]lightning[D]

[Verse 3]
And now [Em]these few [G]presidents
[C]Frowning in my [Em]pocket
[C]Can persuade [Bm]no go[D]d
To [C]let me let [Bm]you [D]talk, oh
[Em]These few [G]presidents
[C]Frowning in my [Em]pocket
[C]Can persuade [Bm]no go[D]d
To [C]let me let [Bm]you [D]off[G]

[Verse 4]
Even [G]though I haven't
[D]seen you in years
[C]Yours is a funeral I'd fly [D]to
[Em]from anywhere
[D][C]

[Verse 5]
[G]I thought I had a pebble in [D]my sock
[Em]I pulled it off [C]and shook
out a wasp
[G]It stumbled out lost
And [A]without [D]a pause
Un[Em]stung as I was
[C]Still I stomped it

[Verse 6]
I [Em]thought,
there is no my paved street [G]worthy[C]
Of your [Em]perfect Scandinavian [C]feet
Wha, wha, [Em]wha,
my crooked Chinese [C]fingers [Em]groped
The machinery [C]of your throat

[Verse 7]
[A]
And [D]now [Em]these few [G]presidents
[C]Frowning in my [Em]pocket
[C]Can persuade [Bm]no go[D]d
To let [C]me [Bm]let [D]you talk, oh
[Em]These few [G]presidents
[C]Frowning in my pock[Em]et
[C]Can persuade [Bm]no go[D]d
To [C]let me [Bm]let you [D]off

[Verse 8]
[G]Even though I haven't
[D]seen you in years
[C]Yours is a funeral I'd [D]fly
to [C]from anywhere

[Outro 1]
[Em]
