G G*
Out where the creek turns shallow and sandy
G G*
And the moon comes skimmin' away the stars
G G*
The wind in the mesquite comes rushin' over the hilltops
G C
Straight into my arms
G G*
Straight into my arms
G G*
Well I'm ridin' hard carryin' a catch of roses
G G*
And a fresh map that I made
G G*
Tonight I'm gonna get birth naked and bury my old soul
G C
And dance on its grave
G
And dance on its grave
D* G C
It's been a long time comin', my dear
D* G C
It's been a long time comin', but now it's here
G G*
And now it's here
Well my daddy he was just a stranger
Lived in a hotel downtown
Well when I was a kid he was just somebody
Somebody I'd see around
Somebody I'd see around
Well now down below and pullin' on my shirt
Yeah I've got some kids of my own
Well if I had one wish in this god forsaken world kid
It'd be that your mistakes will be your own
That your sins will be your own
It's been a long time comin', my dear
It's been a long time comin', but now it's here
And now it's here
short instrumental break G G* F C F C D/F# G
Well out 'neath the arms of Cassiopeia
Where the sword of Orion sweeps
Well it's me and you Rosie cracklin' like crossed wires
You breathin' in your sleep
You breathin' in your sleep
Well there's just a spark of a campfire left burnin'
Two kids in a sleeping bag beside
I reach 'neath your shirt lay my hands across your belly and feel
Another one kickin' inside
And I ain't gonna fuck it up this time
It's been a long time comin', my dear
It's been a long time comin', but now it's here
It's been a long time comin', my dear
It's been a long time comin', but now it's here
And now it's here
