[Intro]
N.C.
So higher powers, higher powers,
higher powers.
Higher powers in me.
Higher powers in me.
I've seen 'em in the hill, you know,
I've seen the spirits,
you know, so?
Definitely believe in the
higher powers,
'cause I'm just a little
old human, you know?
Dm Dm
[Verse 1]
Dm C/E F G
Cody says he didn't start the fire
Am G Dm
His parents know he probably did
Dm C/E F G
He's always playing with a light
Am G Dm
He's just a different kind of kid
Dm C/E F G
And Cody says He didn't raise the dead
Am G Dm
Says "religion's just a trick
Dm C/E F G
To keep hard-working folks in line."
Am G Dm
He says it makes his stomach sick
[Chorus
Dm C/E F
So who's gonna carry us away?
Bb F/A Gm
Eagles with glory-painted wings?
C Bb F/A
We keep on waiting for the miracle to come
C/G F Bb
Pour down the mountain like a
F/A C/G F
heaven-fed stream
[Verse 2]
Dm C/E F G
Cody's always got one on the line;
Am G Dm
He likes to walk 'em by the wrist
Dm C/E F G
He does his pulling with his eyes
Am G Dm
He does his talking with his fists
Dm C/E F G
Bottle rockets on an August night
Am G Dm
Raid the coolers in the trucks
Dm C/E F
If we're lucky we'll get loud
G
and we'll drink
Am G Dm
Whiskey from a plastic jug
[Chorus]
Dm C/E F G
So who's gonna carry us away?
Bb F/A Gm
Eagles with glory-painted wings?
C Bb
We keep on waiting for the
F/A
miracle to come
C/G F Bb
Fall from the firmament and
F/A C
give us nice things
Bb C
Round and round it goes
Bb Gm
Where it stops, nobody knows,
Dm
nobody knows
[solo]
Dm C/E F F
Bb F/A Gm Gm
Dm C/E F F
Bb F/A Gm Gm
[Chorus]
Dm C/E F G
So who's gonna carry us away?
Bb F/A Gm
Eagles with glory-painted wings?
C Bb
We keep on waiting for the
F/A
miracle to come
C/G F Bb
Roll down the mountain to the
F/A
sound of sad strings
C/G F Bb F/A
We keep on waiting for the miracle
C/G F Bb F/A
For the miracle
C/G F Bb F/A
We keep on waiting for the miracle
C/G F Bb F/A
For the miracle
