Done Bleeding

F
Recite the songs that kept me whole
       Bb
On the day I hand over command control
C                                   F
Try to let them all flow into this one

F
List alphabetically
     Bb
The toxins the doctors found in me
C                     G
During my time in prison


[Chorus]
Ab                Gb             F
Count my fingers, every last one
Gb          F
When I get done


[Verse 2]
F
Clean the floors well, sweep and swab
Bb
Do a thorough job
C                                       F
Leave the old place nicer than I found it

Continues after the ad
      F
Wish well as the neighbors cheer and shout
Bb
Finally taking their earplugs out
C                                          G
Things were even worse here than they sounded


[Chorus]
Ab                 Gb                    F
Grim-faced pilots, back from the bombing run
 Gb          F
When I get done


[Bridge]
Dm                    Gm
    Take a picture or two
Am                    Dm
Just to remember the view
F#m                 C#m
Leave a mark on the door
D                              A               G
As an empty warning sign from one who's gone before
            F     Eb
But isn't here anymore


[Chorus]
Eb                                    F
Let the crust form on my skin in the sun
 Gb         F
When I get done


[Verse 3]
 F
Sweep the front porch, make it new
         Bb
Put the broom away when I get through
     C                                F
No passersby need know of my lonely tenure

 F
All this riot of light, the shock of leaves
Bb
   Wind rippling in my sleeves
C                                    G
Swirling against my skin as in a blender


[Chorus]
Ab                  Gb            F
Red thread drying behind me, hand-spun
 Gb          F
When I get done
