Вступление
[INTRO]
Em C/E G/D Cmaj7 Cm
[VERSE 1]
Em C
Whilst his mother's womb contained the growing Baal
Bm/D
Even then the sky was waiting quiet and pale
Am
Naked, young, immensely marvellous
B7 Em
Like Baal loved it, when he came to us
[VERSE 2]
Em C
That same sky remained with him in joy and care
Bm/D
Even when Baal slept peaceful and unaware
Am
At night a lilac sky, a drunken Baal
B7 Em
Turning pious as the sky grows pale
[VERSE 3]
Em C
So through hospital, cathedral, whiskey bar
Bm/D Bm
Baal kept moving onwards and just let things go
Am
When Baal's tired, boys, Baal cannot fall far
B7/D# Em
He will have his sky down there below
[LINK 1]
Em C/E G/D Cmaj7 Cm
[VERSE 4]
Fm Db
When the sinners congregate in shame together
Cm
Baal lay naked, revelling in their distress
Ab Bbm
Only sky, a sky that will go on forever
C7 Fm
Formed a blanket for his nakedness
[VERSE 5]
Fm Db
And that lusty girl, the world, who'll laugh and yield
Cm
To the men who'll stand the pressure of her thighs
Ab Bbm
Sometimes gave him love-bites, such as can't be healed
C7 Fm
Baal survived it, he just used his eyes
[VERSE 6]
Fm Db
And when Baal saw lots of corpses scattered round
Cm/Eb
He felt twice the thrill, despite the lack of room
Ab Bbm
"Space enough" said Baal, "they're not thick on the ground
C7 Fm
Space enough within this woman's womb"
[LINK 2]
Fm C/E Cm/Eb Bb/D Bbm/Db C7 C7
[VERSE 7]
Em C
Any vice for Baal has got its useful side
Bm
It's the man who practice it, he can't abide
Am
Vices have their point, once you see it as such
B7 Em
Stick to two for one will be too much
[VERSE 8]
Em C
Slackness, softness are the sort of things to shun
G/D G/B
Nothing could be harder than the quest for fun
Am/C
Lots of strength is needed and experience too
B7/D# Em
Swollen bellies can embarrass you
[LINK 3]
Em C/E G/D Cmaj7 Cm
[VERSE 9]
Fm Db
Under gloomy stars and this poor veil of tears
Cm/Eb
Baal will graze a pasture till it disappears
Bbm
Once it's been digested to the forest's teeth
C7 Fm
Baal trod singing for a well earned sleep
[VERSE 10]
Fm Db
Baal can spot the vultures in the stormy sky
Cm/Eb
As they wait up there to see if Baal will die
Ab Bbm
Sometimes Baal pretends he's dead, but vultures swoop
C7 Fm
Baal in silence dines on vulture-soup
[VERSE 11]
Fm Db
When the dark womb drags him down to its prize
Cm/Eb
What's the world still mean to Baal, he's overfed
Ab Bbm
So much sky is lurking still behind his eyes
C7 Fm
He'll just have enough sky when he's dead
[LINK 4]
Fm C/E Cm/Eb Bb/D Bbm/Db C7 C7
[VERSE 12]
Em C
Once the Earth's dark womb engulfed the rotting Baal
Bm/D
Even then the sky was up there, quiet and pale
Am
Naked, young, immensely marvellous
B7 Em
Like Baal loved it when he lived with us
