When St. Peter loses cool and bars the gates

Eb Eb 
 
When Atlas acts the maggot,
Gm Gm 
 
makes his arms shake
When the birds are heard again
Bb Bb 
 
in their singing
Eb Eb 
 
Once atrocity is hoarse from voicin' shame
And when the earth is trembling
Cm Cm 
 
on some new beginnin'
F F 
 
With the same sweet shock
Eb Eb 
 
of when Adam  first came

Be that hopeful feeling
when Eden was lost

That's been deaf to our laughter
since the master was crossed

Which side of the wall really suffers that cost?

Bridge 2
(Lover, be good to me)
Gm Gm 
 
Be love in its disrepute
Bb Bb 
 
Scorches a hillside and salts every root
Eb Eb 
 
And watches  the slowing
Cm Cm 
 
and starving of troops
Gm Gm 
 
And lover, be good to me
(Lover, be good to me)
Be there and you stare as you stand
Bb Bb 
 
Or  be like the rose that you hold in your hand
Eb Eb 
 
That will grow bold in a barren
Cm Cm 
 
and desolate land
Gm Gm 
 
And lover be good to me
