[Verse]
Em D Am G Em D
Indo - china, Capa jumps Jeep, two feet creep up the road
Am G Em D
To photo, to record meat lumps and war,
Am G D Am Em
They advance as does his chance oh
Dm Em D
very yellow white flash.
Am G Em D
B violent wrench grips mass, rips light, tears limbs like rags,
Am G
Burst so high finally Capa lands,
Em D Am G
Mine is a watery pit. Painless with immense distance
Dm Am
From medic from colleague, friend, enemy,
Em Dm Am G Dm Am Em D Am G
foe, him five yards from his leg, From you Taro.
Dm Am Em D Em D Am G
Do not spray into eyes – I have sprayed you into my eyes.
[verse 2]
Em D Am G Em D
3:10 pm, Capa pends death, quivers, last rattles, last chokes
Am G Em D
All colours and cares glaze to grey, shrivelled and stricken to dots,
Am G D Am Em
Left hand grasps what the body grasps not oh
Dm Em D
le photographe est mort.
Am G Em D Am G
3.1415, alive no longer my amour, faded for home May of '54
Em D Am G
Doors open like arms my love, Painless with a great closeness
Dm Am
To Capa, to Capa Capa dark after nothing,
Em Dm Am G Dm Am Em D Am G
re-united with his leg and with you, Taro.
Dm Am Em D Em D Am G
Do not spray into eyes – I have sprayed you into my eyes.
