Mystic

	  		


D 
There is a mystic in the mountain, high above the great salt lake 
Dancing in the heavens, far below his golden gates 
     G                     D     G                    D 
He's looking at our cars below, laughing at our rock and roll 

D 
So I found a little woman, thought that I could change her name 
She had the colour of the city and the fire of the country flame 
    G                 D        G                      Bm A  D                 
So I hid my body down below, hoping that my skin wont show 

G D/F# D 


 D 
Mystic from the mountain, in the end what did you say wed find 
A promise from a pamphlet, a crucifixion on your highway sign      
       
        G             D             G                           Bm A                    
But I sold you for a cigarette, does it make you want to love me less 
        Bm      G           A         D 
And if I dont believe. What does that mean? 
     Bm          G          A         D  
And when I die alone, who will eat my soul 
       G       D               G      D 
In the cave of God, while the angels watch 
            G       D    Bm A  D 
Theres a manic scream, hallelujah 

Babe I know I lost you, moment you could finally see 
The part of me Id hidden, far below our leather seats 
If I could make you understand the empty that I tried fill 
Id crucify my body, leave the pieces at your mystics heels 
But I sold you for a cigarette 
I hope youd sell me off for less 

And if we dont agree 
What does that leave 
And when you die alone 
I will eat your soul 

In the cave of God 
While the angels watch 
Theres a manic scream hallelujah
