[Verse]
Bm Esus4
I've been watching him for seven days
Bm Esus4
His hands pale hee-ho-hee-ho-hee-ho
Bm Esus4
knuckles moving beneath the skin
Bm Esus4
foetuslike hee-ho-hee-ho-hee-ho
Esus4
I've caught seven foxes
Bm Esus4
and placed them on the river bank
Bm Esus4
each night I give him one hee-ho-hee-ho-hee-ho
Bm Esus4
counting down the days till we are one
Bm Esus4
and clothe his heart in fur hee-ho-hee-ho-hee-ho
[Chorus]
C Em Bm
I sing of arms and the man his
C Em Bm
arms that wake each morning
C Em Bm
white-knuckled and that copy claw gestures
Am Em
7 6 and 5
Am Em
7 6 and 5
Am C F Bm Em
7 6 5 4 3 2 1
Em
and here I go...
[Verse]
Bm Esus4
I take him in I take this body whole
Bm Esus4
so thin like a spine hee-ho-hee-ho-hee-ho
Bm Esus4
I thread him on inside of mine
Bm Esus4
and we are one hee-ho-hee-ho-hee-ho
[Chorus]
Am Em D
and his is the fur at last I
Am Em D
see his eyes inside my
Am Em D
mouth even when he sneaks into my bones
Am Em
forever unborn forever unborn
Am C F Bm Em
now finally I am a mother
Am Em
finally I am a mother
