        Bm             Bsus4
Take an eye for an eye
       Bm                Bsus4
Take a tooth for a tooth
      D                   F#     F#7
Just like they say in the Bible
Bm                  Bsus4 Bm               Bsus4
Never leave a trace       or forget a face
       D          F#    F#7        F#         Bm    Bsus4
Of any man at the table,    of any man at the table
         Em                      Bm     Bsus4
When the moon is a cold chiseled dagger
Em                   Bm                 Bsus4
sharp enough to draw blood from a stone
   Em
he rides through your dreams on a coach
    Bm     Bsus4          Em
and horses        and the fence posts
                          F#
in the midnight look like bones

Well they've stopped trying to hold him
with mortar, stone and chain
He broke out of every prison
Boots mount the staircase
The door is flung back open
He's not there for he has risen
He's not there for he has risen

Well he once killed a man with a guitar string
He's been seen at the table with kings
Well he once saved a baby from drowning
There are those who say beneath his coat there are wings
Some say they fear him
Others admire him
because he steals his promise
One look in his eye
everyone denies
ever having met him
ever having met him

He can turn himself into a stranger
well they broke a lot of canes on his hide
He was born away in a cornfield
A fever beats in his head like a drum inside
Some say they fear him
Others admire him
because he steals his promise
One look in his eye
everyone denies
ever having met him
ever having met him
(repeat till end)
