Resurrection

Harp D G D G D G A D D G D G There was something heavy coming down like Easter in the air D G D G And he woke up Sunday morning with some flowers in his hair D G D G Looking like he face of Jesus in his final agony D G D G That they found in that old winding sheet way off in Italy D G D A D He was long gone he was gone when they rolled away the stone D G D G Oh something come a shining in that smoky little room D G D G Lit up like a thousand candles in a Middle Eastern tomb D G D G And an angel lay on the mattress spoke of history and death D G D G With perfume on her lingerie and whiskey on her breath D G D A D He was long gone he was gone when they rolled away the stone D G D G And they found him in the desert picking flowers for the muse D G D G Sometimes he's the fire, sometimes he's the fuse D G D G He's loading up his saddlebags out on the edge of wonder D G D G One is filled with music the other’s filled with thunder D G D A D He was long gone he was gone when they rolled away the stone Harp D G D G D A D D G D G Well I never thought to ask him but the thought seemed mighty slim D G D G If he ever much believed in God Or God believed in him D G D G But they both believed in a woman and the truth that set him free D G D G Now he wonders in confusion for he's lost in poetry D G D A D And He was long gone he was gone when they rolled away the stone D G D G Oh the say there’s something coming but they don’t say what it is D G D G And the judgment might be yours and mine and then again it might be his D G D G It might be William Bonney, Mescalito or El Cid D G D G It might be Spanish Jonathan - again it might be Captain Kidd D G D A D He was long gone he was gone when they rolled away the stone D G D G And they found him in the desert picking flowers for the muse D G D G Sometimes he's the fire, sometimes he's the fuse D G D G He's loading up his saddlebags out on the edge of wonder D G D G One is filled with music the others filled with thunder CHORUS Repeat Twice: D G D A D He was long gone he was gone when they rolled away the stone OUTRO: Harp D G D G D A D
