B
As the descent began I got the distinct impression 

Lake Michigan had been frozen for decades 

I conducted the warmth from my metronome sternum 

To our massive jetting vessel billowing plumes of spent fuel 


B                               D#m
The tundra under us cracked and ruptured
             G#m
To reveal palisades
                  C#m 
Made of blades of gray, gray bristling grass 
    E
And papulose lichen 
B
I was so frightened 
      E
As my grip on you tightened 
      E
Your skin got slicker 

B                   D#m
I am a deserted bus depot 
           G#m
Though our approach suggested 
   B7/D#      D#7  E    
An American hazy sea
               C#m 
Like the one I found inside
      E
After driving you home once 
E
Still half high

I-90 through utter desolation

I sense evil at the heart of each far flung well lighted home 
    B               E               B      E
I close my eyes and see cellar stairways 
B                     E                   G#m7 E
Vermiculated with delicate animal bone 

B                             D#m
Musty rooms house racks of fur jackets 
               G#m
Spattered with plasma 
     C#m
On a bus in Indiana 
   E
I called you and screamed 
      B                     E        E       
Under ceaseless patterns of weeping light
