Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Am][C][G][D][G]
[Am][C][D]
[G]

[Verse 1]
Where the dry dust turns [G]the
sunset pink
Where [C]all summer long
It's so [D]hot that you can't
think [G]straight
Where we pump water from a well by hand
[C]Half a world away from the [D]old
promised land
[Em]We understand
We've been [G]given
A new [Am]covenant
A real sharp [C]one
And we [Em]spent
Our days and [G]nights
Gaining [C]new appreciation
of [D]its finer points
Wait[G]ing for the dead to [C]rise up
from their [D]graves[G]
Waiting for Jesus
[C]To come along and [D]save us
[G]And biding our [C]time[G]
Biding our [C]time[G]
Biding our [D]time

[Interlude 1]
As best we know how.
[G][A][G]
[C][D][G][D]
[C][D][G]

[Verse 2]
Where the Texas [G]Doughboys
used [C]to play
Before the wind blew
[D]everything [G]away
Where we came to get away
from our friends
Where we [C]tell each other jokes
waiting [D]for the world to end
We [Em]know our jokes [G]are funny[Am]
And in all the wrong [C]ways
And we [Em]rent old George Romer[G]o movies
[Am]Relish the short time left[C][D]
[G]Waiting for the dead to [C]rise up
from their [D]graves[G]
Waiting for [C]Jesus
To come along and [D]save us
[G]Yes and biding our [C]time[G]
Biding [C]our [G]time
Biding our [D]time

[Outro 1]
As best we know [G]how.
[D][C][D]
[G][D][G][C][D]
[G]
