Jason Boland & The Stragglers — Hell or Bust
Dm Whoa can you hear The Sound of my trembling hands Whoa can you see The tears of a dying man G Daddy sits and Momma cries and sister she won't eat Dm Children they're unaware They're out playing in the streets G A burning bird across the sky A statue made of rust A A banner flown red down to hell or bust Dm Down to hell or bust Jesus can you hear The prayers of your dying lambs Jesus should we fear The arrows from a distant land An evil eyes is always turned When we turn the other cheek And we give up our inheritance And the blessing of the meek The circle it comes back around The guest becomes the host Ash to bone flesh again to ghost flesh again to ghost Chorus: Bb C Dm Anywhere other than the other side Bb C Aadd9 Oh you know we were born to ride Bb C Dm Two by two side by side Bb C Dm Anywhere other than the other side Children can you see That it's all right before your eyes Children can you hear Your heart break beneath their lies All the wishes ever Are at the bottom of the well And the padres are left to pray For the sinner stuck in hell One day we'll all break out Of the prison made of bone Rise above these hollowed halls of stone Hollowed halls of stone Chorus:
