Mystic Chords & Lyrics by Joshua James
Mystic
guitar chords lyrics
From his From the Top of Willamette Mountain album.
You can play it in standard tuning with the chords, but the ringing D bass note is
quite prominent on the recording. Avoid playing the high e string.

There is a mystic in the mountain, high above the great salt lake
Dancing in the heavens, far below his golden gates
G D G D
He's looking at our cars below, laughing at our rock and roll
D
So I found a little woman, thought that I could change her name
She had the colour of the city and the fire of the country flame
G D G Bm A D
So I hid my body down below, hoping that my skin wont show
G-D/F#-D
D
Mystic from the mountain, in the end what did you say wed find
A promise from a pamphlet, a crucifixion on your highway sign
G D G Bm A
But I sold you for a cigarette, does it make you want to love me less
Bm G A D
And if I dont believe. What does that mean?
Bm G A D
And when I die alone, who will eat my soul
G D G D
In the cave of God, while the angels watch
G D Bm A D
Theres a manic scream, hallelujah
Babe I know I lost you, moment you could finally see
The part of me Id hidden, far below our leather seats
If I could make you understand the empty that I tried fill
Id crucify my body, leave the pieces at your mystics heels
But I sold you for a cigarette
I hope youd sell me off for less
And if we dont agree
What does that leave
And when you die alone
I will eat your soul
In the cave of God
While the angels watch
Theres a manic scream hallelujah
