Do You Wanna Be Buried With My People

	  		Am            G        Am                       G 
Sometimes I'm tossed & driven 
Am            G                   Am            G 
& sometimes I don't know where to roam 
Am                  G           Am              G 
but I've heard of a city called Heaven 
Am                G          Am                 G 
& I've started to make it my home 
Am           G         Am                       G 
Oh soon I'll reach the glory 
Am                G         Am                  G 
where mortals no longer complain 
Am                      G         Am            G 
& there's a ship that's coming to take me 
Am               G          Am                  G 
& the captain is calling my name 

       A              
Do you wanna be buried with my people, dear 
        D           A 
was the look in his eyes 
A 
We can rest our bones side by side 
       D              A 
in the dirt of yonder high 

A                             D            A 
& it's so fun to see me being me alongside you 
A        
& that's how I knew the answer dear 
       D               A 
to the look I got from you 

A                             D           A 
I'd nearly given up dear with all my fantasies 
A                                    D          A 
& then you come & crossed my path, & so here we be 
A                                       D             A 
& how the hell did I live this long without you by my side 
A                                    D              A 
Can I believe it's you I've sensed & sung to all my life 
A                                       D                 A 
Arms that held me never worked before until I was held by you 
A                                   D           A 
with a grip so still & charged, oh, coo coo coo coo 

A                          D            A 
& finally it came around inviting us to play 
A                  
There's nothing as scary as a divine plan 
A     D                          A 
but I wouldn't have it any other way 

A  
The mystery is larger than you & me 
A       D              A 
& we're drunk on faded heart 
A    
but woman, I have a suspicion 
A              D             A 
you just could be my missing part 

A            
but who the hell knows which way 
    D                   A 
the gods will pull us tomorrow 
A               
but honey we're writing our past right now 
  D                        A 
& fear's only gonna beckon sorrow 

A 
Giddy up love whatever is for you 
A     D             A 
won't ever pass you by 
A 
You live & die in you 
A 
& I live & die in me 
     D 
each day for the rest of this life 

A 
'Cause I am a prince 
A 
& I Am A prince 
    D              A 
for I am my own salvation 
A 
but you're my queen 
A 
& you're my king 
A           D               A 
so live and die beside each other  

A 
Do you want to be buried with my people, dear 
        D            A 
was the look in your eyes 
A 
We can rest our bones side by side 
A      D              A 
in the dirt of yonder high 

A                             D            A 
& it's so fun to see me being me alongside you 
A                 
That's how I knew the answer dear 
A      D               A 
to the look I got from you
