[Primeira Parte]

G
My good friend Paul was lying in
G
The backseat of a station wagon
Em            C  G
Headed to New Mexico
 G
Somewhere in the middle of the night the driver fell asleep
    Em             C        G
 And hit the wall beside the road
     D                 Em                  C                 G
My friend went through the window like a bullet through the glass
Am              G              C   D
Dead before he ever hit the ground
 
[Refrão]

   Em  C  G                Em    C  G
Oh I believe though its hard sometimes
    Am           C                G  C  G  C  G
You are the resurrection and the life
 
[Segunda Parte]

G
Jody is a queen reigning 
G
Prone upon a couch
        Em                 C        G
For the past few years of numbered days
      G
Because the virus in her body and
      G
The cancer in her brain
      Em            C   G
Are buying up the real estate
       D             Em
The medicine they give her
         C                G
Trades nightmares for her dreams
      Am           G          C    D
Of memories too tragic to describe
  
[Refrão]

   Em  C  G              Em    C  G
Oh I believe though its hard sometimes
     Am           C               G  C  G  C  G
You are the resurrection and the life
     D               Em                C
I know the words of life to come are true
        G             D       Em
But sometimes they feel like salt upon the wound
          C                G                Am
When I’m asking in these moments where are you
C      D    G  C  G  C  G
Where are you?
 
[Terceira Parte]

G
Sometimes its like Lazarus,
G
You come to roll the stone away
      Em                C    G
And watch him walk back out alive
G
Sometimes its like my good friend Paul,
G
Breathless on the interstate
 Em              C     G
Mother weeping at his side

 D                Em             C          G
Either way its something I will never understand
       Am              G                C   D
But I trust enough to take you at your word
  Em  C  G               Em     C    G
So I believe though its hard sometimes
     Am          C                G    C  G  C  G
You are the resurrection and the life
