Comes Indiana Through The Smoke Teclado

	  
 

Intro 
Cmaj7  G   

verse 1  
Cmaj7               Cmaj7 
So does the ink dry out 
                    G 
So does the singing mouth get sung up 
Cmaj7               Cmaj7                    G 
So does the new headline no longer reach the town 
Cmaj7            Cmaj7               G 
So does the rosy fire of the horizon fade into dull grey 
          Cmaj7                    Cmaj7                    G 
While the trees out by the parking lot get greener with the rain 

Pre-Chorus 
     Am                Em 
On a dazzling field of blue 
          Am           G 
She comes sailing into view 
     Am                C/G               D 
All around her engines scream and guns unload 

 

Am                        C/G  G 
Comes Indiana through the smoke 
Am                  C/G  G 
Indiana through the smoke 

verse 2 
Cmaj7                    Cmaj7 
But you were bigger than life 
         G               G 
You were giant, you were earth-size 
    Cmaj7                       Cmaj7 
And now you're mostly just your mind 
         G                  G 
And your dim eyes, and your fractured spine 
           Cmaj7                Cmaj7 
And you're sailing to the great unknown 
                    G 
But you've gotta go alone there 
          Cmaj7                    Cmaj7 
You can't even take your childhood bride 
         G               G 
But it's okay that she's crying 

Pre-Chorus 
         Am   Em 
With her OS2U fleet 
     Am             G 
Anti-aircraft battery 
       Am          C/G  D 
She is occupied by 1800 souls 



Am                        C/G  G 
Comes Indiana through the smoke 
Am                  C/G  G 
Indiana through the smoke 

verse 3 
         Cmaj7                        Cmaj7 
And this great big buzzing death-hole swells 
       G             G 
At the corner of the carpet 
Cmaj7               Cmaj7 
Nurses going in and out 
          G             G 
Well they all just step around it 
        Cmaj7                Cmaj7 
And the room is moving in so close 
        G               G 
As some moment's coming nearer 
         Cmaj7                 Cmaj7 
And your story's coming out so slow 
           G              G 
But I come closer and can hear her 

Pre-Chorus 
        Am               Em 
And she steams out Casco Bay 
        Am          G 
Part of Task Force 58 
        Am                   C/G               D 
And the young men 'board her all are brave and bold 
 


Am                        C/G  G 
Comes Indiana through the smoke 
Am                  C/G  G 
Indiana through the smoke 

Pre-Chorus 
          Am           Em 
She won't sink or run aground 
               Am                   G 
She won't turn back, she won't back down 
         Am                C/G         D 
When you find your time to finally let go 



Am                        C/G  G 
Comes Indiana through the smoke 
Am                  C/G  G 
Indiana through the smoke 

Outro 
Am  C/G  G
