Nonis Field

                 Em
When I closed my eyes in Noni's 
field
                     G
We were lying on our backs.
                  Em
I dreamt that the ground split a 
seam,
               G
Our spirits, floating.
               Cmaj7
When no longer tied into our bodies,
                      G
We left them wrapping as a sign,

to slip into the crack.
   Cmaj7                G
Tired and ready to go.

    G
But I don't know what goes on.

I touched my grandfather s face, he 
lay fixed in his casket.
He lay sewn shut and folded so that 
none could refuse it.

         Em
They had posed, they had painted 
him.
I laughed. I let him go.
His cheeks washed like watercolor

sunlight, evening time.
                           G
I could never put my hands back to 
them.

G
Still, I don t know what goes on.
                 D7
Will my thoughts burn in unseen 
patterns, form a dim glow in your 
mind
Long after you remember who it was 
that I looked like?

Em    A7 Cmaj7 G
Oh Oh Oh Oh

           Em                      
We saw the sky, swarming full with 
                             G
the light that the fireflies made.
   Em         Bm/D       Cmaj7
An accidental constellation.
A7   Cmaj7        G
You, how will you go?
Em                   A7
Out through your mouth in a sigh?
Cmaj7            G
Into a space we don't know.

Em    A7 Cmaj7 A7 Cmaj7
Oh Oh Oh Oh    Oh Oh
