Tonart: G minor
Verse 1
Em
Into the jaws of a crocodile's dream
I was riding with El across
borders unseen
Am
Never been there before in
that beautiful strange
Em
Through the deep green jungle
Am
Em
to the red Mars plains
As the hot day drew its thick breath
We were close enough to flying to
be near enough to death
Am
There were ghosts swimming in my thoughts,
I'd say that

Verse 3
The motor stopped and
the night was still
Except the fan kept clipping
on the window sill
Am
And the tap kept dripping
in our orange room
Em
E
My heart was dancing with the

E
elephants BOOM BOOM BOOM
Em
And I, I couldn't sleep, I was wide awake
Like a super mosquito couldn't
catch it or escape from it
Am
I write songs, I don't often pray
Em
But I've never been so glad for the break of day,

bare feet, white skirts
E
Me and Eloise and Henning meeting
Em
Mele on the outskirts
Am
Into a house where the Reggaeton blazed
Em
And the palm wine circled til
Am
our eyes were glazed
Em
There was something rare
about the way he smiled
As if the distance of his thoughts
equaled more than miles
Am
I said, "Who we are Tony,
please explain," and he said

Am
"Everybody here has at least six names,"

Verse 7
Em
Sometimes I wonder if
we cheat our own maps
E
If we re- draw the lines,
Em
if we distort the facts
E
Am
Cos we're too afraid of
the love of the deep

Of the big, green devil in Arte Morris
He'll eat up your ideas,
Em
Make a bite mark bigger
than a king lion's roar
Am
No gauze could cover that wound,
white teeth
Em
Make a crooked white wall of my country's embassy
