Verse:

       F             Am
In the straw-colored light
   F             Am
In light rapidly changing
     F            Am
On a life rapidly fading

Pre-chorus:

         C          E   
Have you seen death singing
         C          E
Have you seen death singing

Verse:

       F                  Am
With a throat smooth as a lamb
Yet dry as a branch not snapping
He throws back his head
And he does not sing a thing mournful

Chorus:

         C          E
Have you seen death singing
Have you seen death singing
Have you seen death singing
       E             Am
In the straw-colored light

He sings a black embrade
And white opals swimming
In a child's leather purse
Have you seen death swimming
Have you seen death swimming

With a throat smooth as a lamb
Yet dry as a branch not snapping
He throws back his head
And he does not sing a thing mournful

Have you seen death singing
Have you seen death singing
Have you seen death singing
In the straw-colored light

He sings of youth enraged
And the burning of Atlanta
And these viral times
And May ribbons streaming
And straw-colored curls a-turning
A mother's vain delight
And woe to the sun
And woe to the young
Another hearse is drawn
Have you seen death singing
In the straw-colored light
