_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] The sun came up above the [Am] strange white plain _
Blood-red flowers all [A] went with rain
[C] The spirit wasn't really willing [E] anymore
[Em] For the flesh was very, very [Am] small
_ _ _ _ [A] _
_ [F] I've got very little money left
[Bm] And I've got no sense
But [Am] I have none of your [Dm] goddamned impudence
_ [Am] The sun came up above the [E] new white fields
_ [A] And everything was new again
_ _ [G] Pure _ power stripped [Am] of meaning
_ [A] _ _ [E] _
Sky burning, [Am] spring cleaning _ _
_ Daisies _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ on the hillside like cancer on the skin
Pretty little yellow eyes that flutter in the wind
I'd [C] be grateful my children aren't [E] here to see this
If you'd [Em] ever seem fit [A] to give me children _
And _ _ [F] my defenses may be working with a [B] skeleton crew
But [Am] I'll be skinned alive before [Dm] I'll take this from [Am] you
The [A] sun came up above the [E] ocean out west
_ [A] All the colors of the rainbow
_ [G] Stand up straight, you can see the house [A] gleaming _ _
[E] Day breaking, _ [A] spring cleaning _
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
