C         Em     A
Helen and Heaven Earth sea and shore
C         Em        A
Says even less than says even more than
   C        Em     A        C Em A  C Em A
Is hearable anyway even for Sandy
C          Em     A
Life in my ankles lives in my hands
C             Em            A
Own minds for nothing 'cept laying of Sandys pit
C         Em            A           C Em A  C Em A
Lies in a field that is nearer than handy
C Em A C Em A

C         Em        A
Space for approval plenty of room
C          Em        A
Join me in closedown sink into gloom
         C          Em         A           C Em A  C Em A
Watching window see all of the news of the day and
C            Em     A
Life without anger life without fear
C             Em      A
Own minds for nothing helped with ideas
        C           Em          A          C Em A C Em A
But the mouth I was feeding was sick on my hand

C#m              A       D
Waters voice and wind as one
C#m         A       B        F#m
Quake their call to Moon and Sun
C#m                  A         D
Sovereign stars and throws of light
C#m    A         B      F#m    C Em A  C Em A
Pale before her queenly mighty ankles


C           Em      A
Life in her ankles lives in my hands
C         Em        A
Says even less than what even can
       C  Em    A    C   Em   A   C Em  A
Stands in bold in my eyes
C        Em         A
Finally accepting deterioration
C               Em
Strange men and women
A                         C    Em     A    C Em A  C Em A
Allowing themselves to be shot at the same time

  
C#m              A    D       C#m    A     B   F#m
All hope and fear by night and day forever pine away
C#m                 A          D
And every leaf that plumes her touch
C#m        A         B        F#m
Sails from branch to sink in dust
C    Em    A
Hooray!
