C G Am
The giant of Illinois
F C G
Died from a blister on his toe
C G E F
After walking all day through the first winter's snow
C G Am
Throwing bits of stale bread
F C G
To the last speckled doves
C G E F
He never even felt his shoe full of blood
Am Em
Delirious with pain, his bedroom walls began to glow
G Dm
And he felt himself soaring up through falling snow
F G Am
And the sky was a woman's arms
F G C
The sky was a woman's arms

C G Am
A boy with a club foot
F C G
Had sat next to him in school
C G E F
Once upon a summer's day they went wandering through the woods
C G Am
They spotted a sleeping swan
F C G
On the banks of a muddy stream
C G E F
And they stormed it with rocks till it collapsed in the reeds
Am Em
They lay out on a green lawn full of chocolate and lemonade
G Dm
But underneath it all the giant was afraid
F G Am
And the sky was a woman's arms
F G C
And the sky was a woman's arms
