Dirt In The Ground

Fm Db

1. What does it matter,

Fm Db

a dream of love or a dream of lies

Eb Ab

We're all gonna be the same place

C7

When we die

Fm Db

Your spirit don't leave knowing

Fm Db

Your face or your name

Eb

And the wind through your bones

Ab C7

Is all that remains

Fm Db Eb Fm

And we're all gonna be... (4x)

(a capela)...Just dirt in the ground

2. The quill from a buzzard

The blood writes the word

I want to know am I the sky

or the bird

'Cause hell is boiling over

And heaven is full

We're chained to the world

And we all gotta pull

And we're all gonna be... (4x)

...Just dirt in the ground

3. Now the killer was smiling

With nerves made of stone

He climbed the stairs

And the gallows groaned

And the people's hearts were pounding

They were throbbing, they were red

As he swung out over the crowd

I heard the hangman said

We're all gonna be... (4x)

...Just dirt in the ground

4. Now, Cain slew Abel

He killed him with a stone

The sky cracked open

And the thunder groaned

Along a river of flesh

Can these dry bones live?

Ask a king or a beggar

And the answer they'll give

Is we're all gonna be... (4x)

...just dirt in the ground
