[Verse 1]
G
Where the dry dust turns the sunset pink
      C                       D
Where all summer long it's so hot that you can't think straight
G
Where we pulled water from a well by hand
C                          D
Half a world away from the old promised land
Em                       G
We understand we've been given
C                      D
A new covenant, a real sharp one
Em                        G
And we spend our days and nights
C                           D
Gaining appreciation of its finer points
G                           C                  D
And waiting for the dead to rise up from their graves
G                C                      D
Waiting for Jesus to come along and save us
    G          C
And biding our time
G          C
Biding our time
G          D                    G
Biding our time as best we know how

[Verse 2]
G
Where the Texas doughboys used to play
  C                             D
Before the wind blew everything away
G
Where we came to get away from our friends
C                                D
Where we'd tell each other jokes waiting for the world to end
Em                    G
We know our jokes are funny
C                                 D
But in all the wrong ways and for all the wrong reasons
Em                            G
And we rent old George Romero movies
C          D
Relish the short time left
G                       C                  D
Waiting for the dead to rise up from their graves
G                C                      D
Waiting for Jesus to come along and save us
         G          C
Yes, and biding our time
G          C
Biding our time
G          D                    G
Biding our time as best we know how
