Carrie Newcomer - Lazarus

^AmNow that he's gone, now the ^Cworld has moved on Since ^D/F#he called my name, ^Fnothing's the ^Esame As ^Ammy sister cried, he said,^C "Lazarus rise" To ^D/F#love and anoint or ^Fjust prove a ^Epoint

I'm the ^Cone that he saved, I'm the ^Done that he raised From a ^Fdark quiet sleep, from the ^Gpeace of the grave I'm the ^Cone who owes much, but that ^Dno one will touch Mothers ^Fsee me and cry, dogs bare ^Gteeth as I walk by

I ^Amdon't see a veil between ^Cheaven and Hell The ^D/F#truth is there's nothing but a ^Fwarm light and ^Esinging But ^Amhere in between, a ^Cvoice haunts my dreams Martha ^D/F#does what she can, but won’t ^Flook at my ^Ehands

I'm the ^Cone that he saved, I'm the ^Done that he raised From a ^Fdark quiet sleep, from the ^Gpeace of the grave I'm the ^Cone who owes much, but that ^Dno one will touch Mothers ^Fsee me and cry, dogs bare ^Gteeth as I walk by

I ^Amlove the cool mornings, I ^Clove hot meals The ^D/F#pulse of the street, night ^Fjasmine and ^Eclean sheets I ^Amcan’t sleep or rest, I feel ^Clost and hard pressed I ^D/F#wander these rooms still ^Flooking for ^Eyou

Now I ^Caught to be grateful to ^Ddrink from the grail But ^FI don't belong either ^Gside of this veil I look ^Cdown at my hands that are ^Dclasped in my lap When ^Fhe left this world, I thought ^Ghe'd take me back
