[Verse 1]
C
Rain all burned away
Fsus2
The horseflies are an iridescent green
C
Plums boiled down to pulp
F C Fsus2
Drying on a screen
 
[Verse 2]
C
Bright red air inside the house here
F
I can barely draw breath
C
Dark blue shapes pop behind my eyelids
Fsus2
I am not afraid of death
Gsus2
And on the television
F
Black and white footage of the young Cassius Clay
C
My god, my god, my god
Gsus2
He was something
 
[Verse 3]
Dm
Fists flashing as he comes toward the screen
F
Sailing headlong into nothing
C
And disappearing, reappearing
F
Out there in the clearing
C
Floating down the slight breeze
F
That plays along the edges of the leaves
C G
It's you, it's you
F
It's you
