Gideons Bible by John Cale
Key: FmFm | Capo: 0fr |  Left-Handed 

Intro
Fm  Bb

Verse
Bbsus4
Holding on, with both eyes, to things that don't exist
Bbsus4
Peering through the cutting wrist, at grand old mother greedy
Bbsus4
Rolling out the cotton ship, upon the carpet pillow
Bbsus4
Throttling children callously, a messy day with Clancy

Chorus
Bb         F   Gm         Gm7
   Gideon lied and Gideon died
Eb      F        Bb    F
   The force of China felt
Bb         F     Gm        Gm7
   Gideon smiled as Gideon died
Eb       F         Bb    F
   The thought of China held.

Verse
Bbsus4
Rolling out the golden robes and other foreign language
Bbsus4
Stretching out the verbs and nouns together in the greeting
Bbsus4
Some that felt the blade often, some deep confused emotion
Bbsus4
Struck eye first against the wall of China under fire.

Chorus
Bb         F   Gm         Gm7
   Gideon lied and Gideon died
Eb      F        Bb    F
   The force of China felt
Bb         F     Gm        Gm7
   Gideon smiled as Gideon died
Eb       F         Bb    F
   The thought of China held.
