Intro: D 


Verse 

        G        D        A 
You're knee-deep in some sin 
          G    D       A 
And your cavalry has thinned 
         Em                                    A 
And the shade of your diamond parasol is long gone 
         G         A          D 
You've eluded the shadow of dreams, dear 

     G           D       A 
You all but one usually finds 
    G       D     A 
No sage no mastermind 
         Em                                      A 
And you broke your knee just to lay foul crimes upon 
  G          A          D 
Eluding the shadow of dreams, dear

Crucifixion, crucifixion 
     A             D 
Crucifixion, crucifixion 
                 G               A 
The cast of the die, the stereo high 

Verse 

             G       D        A 
You're the guardian angel's first 
          G       D        A 
And your books reveal the earth 
           Em                                          A 
And its millennial migrations keep you awake and very stoned 
  G            A        D 
Aloof in your shadowy dreams, dear 

       G       D         A 
Those rows of telephone wire 
          G            D      A 
Formed a staff in the purple sky 
         Em                                        A 
And you licked your finger and corrected a native song 
  G          A          D 
Eluding the shadow of dreams, dear 


[Refrão]
     A             D 
Crucifixion, crucifixion 
     A             D 
Crucifixion, crucifixion 
               G                         A 
You're all in bows, your throat to your nose

               G                              A 
An elastic set blame for what's done in your name
