Defect 14: Xiquexique

I saw a blind man reading the string of a viola
blind against blind in a duel in the hinterland
I saw the blind man tie a cobra in a knot
I saw the blind man imprisoned in the cage of sight
Black bird flying very far away
And the dragonfly discerning the darkness

I saw the moon [C7]on [C7]the tail of the comet
I saw the bass drum and [Bm]the windchest pounding
I saw the lightning while the sky was [Am7]flashing
And the tɾiangle swallowing sparks
I saw the white milky way against the black
I saw day and [Bm]night come together

I saw the father, I saw the mother, I saw the daughter
I saw the calf give birth to [C7]the calf
I saw the ɾeplica of the ɾeplica of the bible
In the invention [C7]of a science singer
I saw God's lamb in an empty egg
I grew cold and [Bm]I asked you [A7to [C7]give me warmth

I saw a blind man ɾeading the stɾing of a viola
blind against blind in a duel in the hinterland
I saw the blind man tie a cobra in a knot
I saw the blind man imprisoned in the cage of sight
the white wing, the white wing, the white song
And the dragonfly discerning the darkness
