G             Em           C            Em
Hey I found a whistle that hangs like a charm
G              Em                    C           D
   And when my noose is tied I could blow it and fall down into your
Bm            A            Bm              Gb7
Arms. fifteen centuries of dissolution and grief
     G             D               C
to return a yellow trickster and a thief


[repeat same chord pattern for all verses]

Yeah I found a whistle that works every time
that's when the trail escapes to nowhere
and the flood erases the crime
such conviction
to paint all the wall with the blood
of the young and the faithful and the good

Hey I found a whistle as thin as sheet
to split the dumbness of a vision
between s asleep and a sleep
tiny axes
repeatedly raising the flag
all ignored, real emotion's such a drag

Yeah I've got a pistol that's aimed at your heart
and on dark nights when the moon is right
I could show you
the head attached with a scarf
aerophane sorceress, at home obeying the fates
when it's gone, has it gone all the way?
