Intro: A# & A#add9

              A#                       A#add9
Out where the creek turns shallow and sandy
        A#                            A#add9
And the moon comes skimmin' away the stars
    A#                      A#add9                     A#
The wind in mesquite comes rushin' over the hilltops
                 D#                      A#    A#add9 A# A#add9
Straight into my arms, straight into my arms
           A#                        A#add9
I'm ridin' hard carryin' a catch of roses
      A#                A#add9
And a fresh map that I made
                  A#                   A#add9            A#
Tonight I'm gonna get birth naked and bury my old soul
                 D#                       A#     A#add9
A#add9
And dance on its grave, and dance on its grave
            Dsus2 Em11 G        C
It's been a long time comin' my dear
            Dsus2 Em11 G                  C
It's been a long time comin' but now it's here
              A#    A#add9 A# A#add9
Yeah now it's here
        A#                   A#add9
Well my daddy he was just a stranger
A#                A#add9
Lived in a hotel downtown
     A#                  A#add9
When I was a kid he was just somebody
A#                D#                        A#      
A#add9
Somebody I'd see around, somebody I'd see around
         A#                         A#add9
Well now down below and pullin' on my shirts
     A#                   A#add9
I've got some kids of my own
     A#                    A#add9
If I had one wish in this godforsaken world, kids
    A#                                D#
It'd be that your mistakes'd be your own
                         A#   A#add9 A# A#add9
Yeah your sins'd be your own
            Dsus2 Em11 G        C
It's been a long time comin' my babe
            Dsus2 Em11 G                  C
It's been a long time comin' but now it's here
              A#    A#add9 A# A#add9
Yeah now it's here

Bridge: A# D# A# D# A# D#

               A#              A#add9
Out 'neath the arms of Casseopeia
          A#              A#add9
Where the sword of Orion sweeps
     A#                      A#add9
It's me 'n' you Rosie we're cracklin' like crossed wires
A#                            D#
And you're breathin' in your sleep
                              A#     A#add9 A# A#add9
Yeah you're breathin' in your sleep
               A#                      A#add9
There's just a spark of campfire left burnin'
    A#                     A#add9
Two kids in sleeping bags beside
  A#                                  A#add9                            A#
I reach 'neath your shirt 'n' lay my hands 'cross your belly 'n' feel
                D#
Another kickin' inside
                                  A#    A#add9 A# A#add9
And I ain't gonna fuck it up this time
            Dsus2 Em11 G        C
It's been a long time comin' my dear
            Dsus2 Em11 G                  C
It's been a long time comin' but now it's here
            Dsus2 Em11 G        C
It's been a long time comin' my babe
            Dsus2 Em11 G                  C
It's been a long time comin' but now it's here
              A#    A#add9 A# A#add9 A#
Yeah now it's here
