Intro: C

      F          Am      C            F             Am          C
As I swan dive into the estuary, the birds do not flinch at my fall
       F             G       Am              C         F             Dm     C
They perch in the rafters, before, during, after: They do not notice me at all


       F          Am      C             F        Am      C
As I float down into the estuary, wind cases my body in cool
    F            G              Am            C           F          Dm      C
I smell petrol fumes, see the smoke rise in plumes: The earth is one big fireball
      F          Dm      C
The earth is one big fireball

Anecdote, lie

   F            Am           C            F         Am        C
As I break the film of the estuary, the seaweed submerges my form
    F            G            Am         C            F         Dm         C
No passing cars stop, not a single jaw drops, as my wallet and keys sink before
    F           Dm          C
A splash all I left in the world

Once held a magpie in the palm of my hand and the blood in our veins flowed faster, as I'd planned
       F             G          Am           C           F             Dm              C
Got a heart full of love and a head full of more but a fist full of threads from the seams
    F         Dm           C
And I saw a smile in that beak

No carnival and no parade
      F   Dm        C
Just one, one for sorrow
             F               G
There's no ticker-tape, no pearly gates
     Am              C
No carnival and no parade
      F   Dm        C
