VERSE 1:
DThere was somethGing heavy coming down likeD Easter in the air G
DAnd he woke up Sunday mGorning with some flowers in hiDs hair G
DLooking like he face of JGesus in his finDal agonGy
DThat they found in that oldG winding sheet way off iDn ItalyG
CHORUS:
DHe was lGong gone he was gDone when they rAolled away the stonDe
VERSE 2:
DOh something come a sGhining in that sDmoky little room G
LDit up like a thouGsand candles iDn a Middle EasternG tomb
And Dan angel lay on the matGtress spoke of Dhistory and deathG
With pDerfume on heGr lingerie andD whiskey on her brGeath
CHORUS:
DHe was lGong gone he was gDone when they rolled awAay the stone D
VERSE 3:
DAnd they found him in the deGsert pickingD flowers for the mGuse
DSometimes he's the Gfire, somDetimes he's the fuse G
DHe's loading up his sGaddlebags oDut on the edge of Gwonder
DOne is filled with muGsic the othDer’s filled with thundGer
CHORUS:
DHe was lGong gone he was gDone when they rolled awAay the stone D
SOLO:

VERSE 4:
DWell I never thought Gto ask himD but the thought seemed mighty slim G
DIf he ever much beliGeved in God Or God bDelieved in him G
But Dthey both believed in a Gwoman and the Dtruth that set him free G
NDow he wonders in conGfusion for he's lDost in poetGry
CHORUS:
DAnd He wGas long gone he was gone wDhen they rolleAd away the stoneD
VERSE 5:
DOh the sGay there’s something comDing but they don’t say what iGt is
AndD the judgment might bGe yours and mine and Dthen again it might be hGis
IDt might be William BGonney, MescaDlito or El Cid G
It mDight be Spanish JonathanG - again it mDight be Captain KiddG
CHORUS:
DHe was lGong gone he was gDone when they rolled awAay the stone D
VERSE 6:
DAnd they found him in the dGesert pickingD flowers for the mGuse
SDometimes he's the Gfire, somDetimes he's the fuse G
HDe's loading up his saddleGbags out on thDe edge of wonder G
DOne is filled with mGusic the othDers filled with thundeGr
CHORUS [Repeat Twice]:
DHe was lGong gone he was gDone when they rolled awAay the stone D
