Jonas And Ezekial Chords

(ver. 1)
Indigo Girls
[Intro]
Am
 
 
[Verse 1]
Am
I left my anger in a river running Highway 5
Am
New Hampshire, Vermont, bordered by
Am
College farms, hubcaps, falling rocks
Am
Voices in the woods and the mountaintops
 
 
[Verse 2]
Am
I used to search for reservations and native lands
Am
Before I realized everywhere I stand
Am
There have been tribal feet running wild as fire
Am
Some past life sister of my desire
 
 
[Chorus]
F                      G
Jonas and Ezekiel hear me now
C               F
Steady now and don't come out
                              G
I'm not ready for the dead to show its face
C                F      E7
Whose turn is it anyway?
   Am  C  Am  C
Anyway
 
 
[Verse 3]
         Am
Now when I was young my people taught me well
Am
Give back what you take or you'll go to hell
Am
It's not the devil's land, you know it's not that kind
Am
Every devil I meet becomes a friend of mine
Am
Every devil I meet is an angel in disguise
 
 
[Chorus]
F                      G
Jonas and Ezekiel hear me now
C               F
Steady now and don't come out
                              G
I'm not ready for the dead to show its face
C                   F      E7
Whose angel are you anyway?
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
Am      C
Ha, ha, ha, ha
Am      C       Em
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
 
 
[Guitar Solo]
Am  C  Em
 
 
[Bridge]
Am     C            G
White, chain, rope, fear
G
(Hush my darling)
   E7          Em
Be still my dear
 
 
[Verse 4]
Am
A bullet in the head, now he's dead
Am
A friend of a friend, someone said
Am
He was an activist with a very short life
Am
I think there's a lesson here—he died without a fight
 
 
[Verse 5]
Am
In the war over land where the world began
Am
Prophecies say it's where the world will end
Am
But there's a tremor growing in our own backyard
Am
Fear in our heads, fear in our hearts
Am
Prophets in the graveyard
 
 
[Chorus]
F                      G
Jonas and Ezekiel hear me now
C               F
Steady now and don't come out
                              G
I'm not ready for the dead to show its face
C                F
Whose turn is it anyway?
               G
Jonas, Ezekiel hear me now
C                       F
Steady now, I feel your ghost about
                              G
I'm not ready for the dead to show its face
C                   F      Em
Whose angel are you anyway?
 
 
[Outro]
               Am
I said there's prophets in the graveyard
Am
(Now I walk in beauty)
Am
Prophets in the graveyard
Am
(Beauty is before me)
Am
Prophets in the graveyard
Am
(Beauty is behind me)
Am
(Above and below me)
