\begin{verse}
And see the \[F#m]flock of birds, black as your apartment is at night
Take \[E]off when my dog comes a-running to bite
And as they \[Bm]sit on their branches to watch the game
They're \[F#m]chanting your name
The \[E]crows at the game
They \[F#m]chant your name
\end{verse}
\begin{verse}
And as I drive home listening to Kimya's record on K
There's this deer with its little ones in the field off the freeway
And it's teaching its fawns who are still a bit lame
To chant your name
The baby deer still lame
They know your name
\end{verse}
\begin{verse}
And the birch trees and the pine trees behind the summer house
They raise their voices when the cigarette drops from the city boy's mouth
And when they're shit-scared that a mighty fire could start with a tiny flame
Man, they call out your name
Shit-scared of a tiny flame
Even the trees call your name
\end{verse}
\begin{verse}
And the baboon in the cage at the mercy of scientists
He is brave and he's a-showing his teeth to resist
And despite all the drugs that they are using to tame
Him, he's a-shouting your name
The baboon that no-one can tame
He's a-shouting your name
\end{verse}
\begin{verse*}
To the scientists who feel no shame
He's a-shouting your name
And when I'm lost again
Well I do the same
I shout your name
\end{verse*}
