E Deep in the belly of a whale I found her G#m Down with the deep blue jail around her C#m Running her hands through the ribs of the dark A Florence and Calamity and Joan of Arc E I love the way she looks in her underwear G#m I lose my page in the book then the plot then I swear C#m She makes the most of her time loving me plenty A B She knows there'll come a day when I won't be gettin' any E The stain of the sepia the butcher Crimea G#m Through the wreck of a brass band I thought I could see her C#m In a cakewalk she came through the dead and the lame A B Just a little bird floatin' on a hurricane E I was flat on my back, my feet in the thorns G#m I was in between the apples and the chloroform C#m She came to me often, I was sure I was dying, A B It was always hard to tell if she was laughing or crying E G#m I thought I heard somebody callin' A B E In the dark, I thought I heard somebody call. E Joan never cared about the in-betweens G#m Combed her hair with a blade did the Maid of Orleans C#m Said Christ walked on water, we can wade through the war A B You don't need to tell me who the fire is for E O bring me the love that can sweeten a sword G#m A boat that can love the rocks or the shore C#m The love of an iceberg reachin' out for the wreck A B Can you love me like the crosses love the nape of the neck? [keyboard interlude] E Was it Casey Jones, or the Casey at the bat G#m Who died outta pride and got famous for that C#m Killed by a swerve laid low by the curve A B Do you ever think they ever thought they got what they deserved? E Don't pity the bully, pity the man G#m Who both found their place in the same sad plan C#m It wasn't like the barrell goin' over the falls A B Crying all the way down I never asked to be involved E G#m I though I heard somebody callin' A B E In the dark, I thought I heard somebody call. [keyboard interlude] E General George began the day by drinking pink little pills G#m Sent his men to the top of some helluva hill C#m Through the whisper of trees came artillery breeze A B He said I love they way the wind comes a-ticklin' my knees E Jane shot the apple right between the eyes G#m I was thinking of her when you came outside C#m Lemonade on your breath, sun in your hair A B Did I mention how I love you in your underwear? E Deep in the belly of a whale I found her G#m Down with the deep blue jail around her C#m Runnin her hands throuhg the ribs in the dark A B Florence and Calamity and Joan of Arc E G#m I though I heard somebody callin' A B E In the dark, I thought I heard somebody call. E G#m I though I heard somebody callin' A B E In the dark, I thought I heard somebody call.
