This is more or less my first tabbed song. So suggestions are very welcome. For the
Picking rythm and the C7 D7
E7 and F#7 you have to play some variations. just listen to the song.
EmIt's all thE7sus4ere in Gthe gospels, the E7sus4MagdaleGne girl
CE7sus4omes toG pay her respects, Cbut her mind iDs awhirl.
EmWhen she E7sus4finds tGhe tomb empty, the E7sus4stone hGad been rolled,
NE7sus4ot a siGgn of a corpse in the dCark and the cDold.
WC7hen she reaches the door, sees an unholy sight,
TD7here's this solitary figure in a halo of light.
HE7e just carries on floating past Calvary Hill,
IF#7n an almighty hurry, aye but she might catch him still.
Em"Tell me whE7sus4ere areG ye going Lord, aE7sus4nd why Gin such haste?"
"E7sus4Now donG't hinder me woman, I've noC time to waDste!
EmFor they're lE7sus4aunchinGg a boat on the E7sus4morrow Gat noon,
AE7sus4nd I haGve to be there before dCaybreak. D
OC7h I canna be missing, the lads'll expect me,
WD7hy else would the good Lord himself resurrect me?
FE7or nothing will stop me, I have to prevail,
TF#7hrough the teeth of this tempest, in the mouth of a gale,
EmMay the E7sus4angels Gprotect me if all E7sus4else shGould fail,
EmWhen E7sus4 the G last E7sus4 ship G sails."
EmOh the rE7sus4oar of Gthe chains and the E7sus4crackinGg of timbers,
EmThe noisE7sus4e at thGe end of the world E7sus4in yourG ears,
EmAs a mE7sus4ountainG of steel makes its E7sus4way to Gthe sea,
EmAnd E7sus4 the G last E7sus4 ship G sails..
EmIt's a E7sus4strangeG kind of beauty, It's E7sus4cold anGd austere,
EmAnd whaE7sus4tever iGt was that ye've E7sus4done toG be here,
EmIt's theE7sus4 sum ofG yr hopes yr dE7sus4espairsG and yr fears,
EmWhen E7sus4 the G last E7sus4 ship G sails.
WC7ell the first to arrive saw these signs in the east,
LD7ike that strange moving finger at Balthazar's Feast,
EmWhere theyE7sus4 asked Gthe advice of some E7sus4wanderiGng priest,
E7sus4And theG sad ghosts of men whom they'd tChought long Ddeceased,
EmAnd whatE7sus4ever goGt said, they'd be E7sus4countedG at least,
EmWhen E7sus4 the G last E7sus4 ship G sails.
EmOh the rE7sus4oar of Gthe chains and the E7sus4crackinGg of timbers,
EmThe noisE7sus4e at thGe end of the world E7sus4in yourG ears,
EmAs a mE7sus4ountainG of steel makes its E7sus4way to Gthe sea,
EmAnd E7sus4 the G last E7sus4 ship G sails..
EmAnd whatE7sus4ever yoGu'd promised, whatE7sus4ever yoGu've done,
EmAnd whatE7sus4ever thGe station in lE7sus4ife youG've become.
EmIn the E7sus4name ofG the Father, in the E7sus4name ofG the Son,
EmAnd whatE7sus4ever thGe weave of this E7sus4life thGat you've spun,
EmOn the E7sus4Earth oGr in Heaven or E7sus4under tGhe Sun,
EmWhen E7sus4 the G last E7sus4 ship G sails.
EmOhhh E7sus4 the G last E7sus4 ship G sails.
EmOhhh E7sus4 the G last E7sus4 ship G sails.
