--
There's a cross [C]up yonder on Calvary Hill
There's a slip of blood on a silver k[G]nife
There's a gr[F]aveyard kid[C] down below
Where at night the dead come to li[G]fe
[F]Well above the stars they[C] crackle and fire
A dead man's moon throws seven r[G]ings
We?d p[F]ut our ears to the [C]cold grave stones
This is the song they?[G]d sing

[F]We are al[C]ive
And though our bodies lie alone here in the d[G]ark
Our spirits[F] ris[C]e
To carry the fire and light the [F]spark
To stand sh[C]oulder to shoulder and [G]heart to heart

[C]A voice cried I was killed in Maryland in 1[F]877[C]
When the railroad workers made their sta[G]nd
[F]I was killed in[C] 1963
One Sunday morning in Bi[G]rmingham
I di[C]ed last year crossing the so[F]uthern d[C]esert
My children left behind in San P[G]ablo
Well they?ve lef[F]t our bodies her[C]e to rot
Oh please let them k[G]now

[F]We are al[C]ive
And though our bodies lie alone here in the d[G]ark
Our spirits[F] ris[C]e
To carry the fire and light the [F]spark
To stand sh[C]oulder to shoulder and he[G]art to heart

Let y[F]our mind rest easy
Sleep we[G]ll my fr[C]iend
It?s only our bo[F]dies that betray us in the [G]end

Well I a[C]woke last night in the dark and [F]dreamy d[C]eep
From my head to my feet my body?d g[F]one stone col[G]d
There were w[F]orms crawling all ar[C]ound me
My fingers scratchin? at an earth black and six foot l[G]ow

A[F]lone in the blackness o[C]f my grave
Alone I?d been left to d[G]ie
Then I h[F]eard voices calling all [C]?round me
The earth rose above me
My eyes filled with s[G]ky

[F]We are al[C]ive
And though our bodies lie alone here in the d[G]ark
Our spirits[F] ris[C]e
To carry the fire and light the [F]spark
To stand sh[C]oulder to shoulder and he[G]art to heart[F][C]
To stand sh[F]oulder to sho[C]ulder and he[G]art to heart[F] [C] [F] [C]
We are a[F]liv[C]e
