"I only hope that one day John will be recognized as ... the Beethoven or something of his day. He knows so much about music, he's such a great musician. He's completely mad - but that's because he's Welsh."Lou Reed

intro: | Fm | Fm | Bb | | Fm | Fm | Bb | Bb | Bb (play with suspended 4th throughout) Holding on, with both eyes, to things that don't exist Peering through the cutting wrist, at grand old mother greedy Rolling out the cotton ship, upon the carpet pillow Throttling children callously, a messy day with Clancy 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 The thought of China held. Rolling out the golden robes and other foreign language Stretching out the verbs and nouns together in the greeting Some that felt the blade often, some deep confused emotion Struck eye first against the wall of China under fire. Gideon lied and Gideon died The force of China felt Gideon smiled as Gideon died The thought of China held. | Fm | Fm | Bb | Bb | repeat...
