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