The Resurrection

G                       Am
I walked the streets of this little town
G                       C        G
Late last night when it all shut down
C                     Em                 G
Feeling stuck between lost and found and nowhere

[Verse 2]

G               Am
Using my memory for a map
       G           C             G
I went looking for trains on the torn up tracks
       C                        Em                       G
With a weary conductor, he just turned his back but he's still there

[Chorus]

G                   C
Waiting for the resurrection
Em            C             G
Fire from the ashes and the tears
       Em
The resurrection
         C                 Am        Em          G
You know dreams die hard, dreams die hard around here

[Verse 3]

           G                   Am
Well, it's hard to believe I'm back again
        G                 C         G
Looking up old lovers and long lost friends
        C                  Em           G
Just to reminisce like the veterans and survivors

[Verse 4]

        G                      Am
I heard Reverend Bill with the kind old face
       G                           C       G
Say he got a little stale and he's been replaced
         C                        Em                   G
Still we all bowed our heads when he said grace at the diner

[Chorus]

G                   C
Waiting for the resurrection
Em            C             G
Fire from the ashes and the tears
         Em
The resurrection
         C                Am         Em         G
You know dreams die hard, dreams die hard around here

[Bridge]

          C                   Em
Well, the engine dies and the main line fails
    C                        Em
But surely the heart and the soul prevails
         G                            C            D
Like the wildflowers grow between the rails in the summer

[Chorus]

G           C
Oh, the resurrection
Em            C             G
Fire from the ashes and the tears
        Em
The resurrection
          C
You know dreams die hard
C                Am          Em         G
Dreams die hard, dreams die hard around here

C
Oh, around here
Am         Em          G
Dreams die hard around here
