Verse
Gm Cm
I am a refugee now, I am running like mad
F A# D
across a frosty green Poland, my head in a sack.
Gm Cm
And the blood in my brain screaming "How did this happen?"
F A# D
and "Where am I now?" Who is so blue in this freeze?
[Verse 2]
Gm Cm
Who is so grey with the history, rain dancing all
F A# D
on my face without mercy and the muscles relax.
Gm Cm
And I just have to laugh through the loose teeth and tissue,
F A# D
the symphony builds under your boot.
[Verse 3]
Gm Cm
And the horns drool in harmony, dancers all swoon,
F A# D
this is my bloody tune, my last gasp of the past.
Gm Cm
My thorn in the side of the violence of time,
F A# D
I won't scream, I won't writhe, I am laughing and burning.
[Verse 4]
Gm Cm
Alive like a thornbush that grew in the hot
F A# D
countryside, now the fire is high and I am not
Gm Cm
consumed. Yes, this is the room,
F A# D
this is the old song from memory, this is the sound of the
Gm Cm F A# D
Jew who refuses to die.
[Interlude]

[Verse 5]
Gm Cm
April 4th, 1944,
F A# D
I recall my old address no more.
Gm Cm
I live day to day on the glossy dancefloor
F A# D
of a wide countryside full of disappeared people.
[Verse 6]
Gm Cm
I sleep in the churches, eat grass like a goat,
F A# D
the calendar hangs on the wall of my memory.
Gm Cm
My name is inscribed up the sleeve of my coat,
F A# D
here I am.
[Interlude]
| Gm | Cm | F | A# D |
[Verse 7]
Gm Cm
Take this document with you, the lines that I wrote
F A# D
as I bled through the night in a strange rusted land.
Gm Cm
I have ripped the page out, it is here in my hand,
F A# D
here I am.
[Verse 8]
Gm Cm
Person of the book but I have lost my page
F A# D
like so many others I am left to inscribe
Gm Cm
my own name on a torn one we will have a new book
F A# D
scattered far across the expanses. The scrapbook
[Verse 9]
Gm Cm
of signatures scrawled in forgotten, lost diaries,
F A# D
texts to recite when time's bloody boot, dances
Gm Cm
and kicks in the bone of our chest, like soft earth
F A# D
and our ancient hoarse voices will echo in song.
[Verse 10]
Gm Cm
And resound off the curve of a high stony ceiling,
F A# D
the curve of the arch from our death to our [Outro] birth.
[Outro]
