JONAS & EZEKIAL (Amy Ray)
-------------------------
[Actually in D; capo 2.]
[Each chord is one measure.]
chords as Am and C. The _Rites_of_Passage_ songbook also shows them as Am
and C. But it _sounds_ like it s mostly Am; that s because the _bass_ plays
A most of the time, even under the C measures. On "ACL," the chords were
strummed so that the fourth and fifth notes of the Am and C measures were
hammer-ons from 0 to 2 on the D string.]
[In other words: the verse is Am Am Am Am(4)>Am Am Am Am C C C C(9)>C C C C.]
Am C
I left my anger in a river running Highway 5
Am C
New Hampshire, Vermont, border by
Am C
College farms, hubcaps, and falling rocks
Am C
Voices in the woods and the mountaintops
I used to search for reservations and native lands
Before I realized everywhere I stand
There have been tribal feet running wild as fire
Some past life sister of are my desire
F G
Jonas and Ezekial, hear me now
C F
Steady now, and don t come out
F G
I m not ready for the dead to show it s face
C F E7 E7 Am Am Am Am
Whose angel are you anyway, anyway?
Now when I was young, my people taught me well
Give back what you take, or you ll go to hell
It s not the devil s land, you know it s not that kind
Every devil I meet becomes a friend of mine
Every devil I meet is an angel in disguise
Jonas and Ezekial, hear me now
Steady now, and don t come out
I m not ready for the dead to show its face
Whose angel are you anyway?
Am C Am C
Hey hey hey hey, Hey hey hey hey...
E7 E7 Am C E7 E7
[guitar solo]
Am C G E7 E7
White - Chain - Rope - Fear - Be still my dear
A bullet in the head, now he s dead
A friend of a friend, someone said
He was an activist with a very short life
I think there s a lesson here, he died without a fight
In the war over land where the world began
Prophecy says it s where the world will end
But there s a tremor growing in our own backyard
Am C Am
Fear in our heads, fear in our hearts, prophets in the graveyards
Jonas and Ezekial, hear me now
Steady now, and don t come out
I m not ready for the dead to show its face
Whose turn is it anyway?
Jonas and Ezekial, hear me now
Steady now, I feel your ghost about
I m not ready for the dead to show its face
Whose angel are you anyway?
Am C
I said there s prophets in the graveyard
(Here I walk in beauty)
Am C
Prophets in the graveyard
(Beauty is be - fore me)
Am C Am C Am.
Prophets in the graveyard
(Beauty is be - hind me, above and below me)
