Intro: G 

                      C           G               C  
On tomorrow's painted wagon, in a yester-dreaming day 
  G              C              Am               C  
I rode to Heaven never thinking I'd be back this way 
        G                C                G            Am7 
Now I'm standing at your doorstep with my halo turning grey 
C    C/B     D     D/F# G 
Open up your gate, Mari-ana 


       D           C                 G 
Lay me down in the dark womb of your love 
         C                 G  
Mother I sought the chosen people  
      C               D  D/F# G  
But I found no one to comfort me 
       D           C                 G 
Lay me down in the dark womb of your love 
         C                   G  
Mother I climbed the highest steeple 
        C       D    G  
I found nothing to believe 



          G                 C                  G                C  
When they called my faults against the wall, I took my place in line 
    G               C               Am                  C  
And put my trust in priestly men to break the ties that bind 
          G                   C                G                Am7 
But their straight and narrow highway's just a row of billboard signs 
C    C/B     D     D/F# G 
Open up your gate, Mari-ana 



       D           C                 G 
Lay me down in the dark womb of your love 
         C               G  
Mother I sang the sacred Psalter  
       C               D  D/F# G  
But no saviour came to comfort me 
       D           C                 G 
Lay me down in the dark womb of your love 
       C            G  
I went naked to the altar 
        C       D    G  
I found nothing to believe 



     G              C                G               C  
So I set my feet to walking from the sidewalk to the sand 
   G             C                 Am              C  
In search of any saint or sage who knew the master plan 
      G              C                 G               Am7 
And I wandered every back-road in that broken promised land 
C    C/B     D     D/F# G 
Open up your gate, Mari-ana 



       D           C                 G 
Lay me down in the dark womb of your love 
         C                  G  
Mother I kept the plain and simple 
       C                D  D/F# G  
But no shepherd came to comfort me 
       D           C                 G 
Lay me down in the dark womb of your love 
        C                G  
I stood shivering in the temple 
        C       D    G  
I found nothing to believe 



   G                     C              G                 C  
As lightning burns these bridges under, smoke will surely rise 
        G            C              Am               C  
And the fables of my innocence blow lazy through the skies 
     G                 C                  G                Am7 
When timeless truths reveal themselves as little more than lies 
C    C/B     D     D/F# G 
Open up your gate, Mari-ana 


       D           C                 G 
Lay me down in the dark womb of your love 
         C                 G  
Mother I razed the tainted chapel  
       C             D  D/F# G  
But no angel came to comfort me 
       D           C                 G 
Lay me down in the dark womb of your love 
         C                    G  
Mother I stormed the Tower of Babel 
        C       D    G  
I found nothing to believe 



   G                       C                G                    C  
So sticks and stones might break this body, words might wound my soul 
    G               C                Am               C  
And phantom visions fly me where the faithful fear to go 
    G                 C           G              Am7 
But when this story's over and my sun is sinking low 
C    C/B     D     D/F# G 
Open up your gate, Mari-ana 



       D           C                 G 
Lay me down in the dark womb of your love 
           C                 G  
Mother the years pass out of counting 
       C                D  D/F# G  
But no prophet comes to comfort me 
       D           C                 G 
Lay me down in the dark womb of your love 
         C                G  
Mother I climbed the holy mountain 
        C       D    G  
I found nothing to believe 
         C 
Mother I climbed the holy mountain 
        D       D/F# G  
I found nothing to believe
