Batter

E       B
 As the plane crashed
G                              B 
 I don’t even think that I got to
E       B   E D
 let it out
    B
And I don’t know if you noticed
E                   D
I don’t know if you noticed yet
              B
But there’s a drought around these 
parts
           E            D
There’s no water in the well
    B         E    D   B
The dry spell, the dry spell

B
Don’t let your demons

Take you to the cleaners

Fix your posture

While you call your mother

Draw a picture -- it lasts longer
  D
A body’s sacred

When it’s naked
      C#
So go ahead

And let it
     B
Be a Bible for another

Blood’s your compass

Let it wander
       D                  C#
May it stick thick like a slaughter
                 B
Halle Halle Hallelujah


(These first two lines are just 
drums - so these are just chords 
that seem to fit the melody)
    E           D             B
Now I return to my first purpose
        A                 C#      
A sharp breath exhaled beneath the
  D   E
 surface
      D
Where lungs collapse like demolition
        C#
And the pulse ceases to quicken 'til
D
I become as sweet as nothing
     C#
I’m nothing now

Just nothing now
    D
I’m nothing now

Nothing now
E
Nothing now
E        D    B
Nothing, I am nothing

B
From the plane

I called your name
       E      B
But it didn’t matter

You were home baking

A birthday cake

Cracking an egg
  E      B
Into the batter
          D
You had a little bit of batter
             C#
A little bit of batter
        B
On your face
