Resplendent

Dm

[Verse]
Bb             Dm           C                       Bb
I remember the dark clouds raining dust for days on end
Bb           C            Dm
Blew all the Earth out to California
C                           Bb
Just left us here with the wind
Bb                        Dm
Desperate times, you know everbody's part
C                                Bb
It's your own lines you'd like to forget
Bb                 C                 Dm
Till what you were meets what you've now become
C                                   Bb        Dm
And grins and says  Hey, haven't we met

Dm  Am Bb F C   Dm

Bb                     Dm
Lost my first born that Winter
C                           Bb
My wife on the first day of Spring
Bb   C               Dm
So I poured my sweat to the Earth
C                              Bb
to see what that harvest would bring
Bb                     Dm
And I remember how the fury
C                     Bb
just like a plague of locusts
Bb      C              Dm
Egypt's punishment for sins of pride
   C                       Bb
Is that now what has come over us
Bb  Dm               C
How much of this was meant to be
 Dm          C            Bb
How much the work of the Devil
    C                 Dm          Bb
How far can one man's eyes really see
          Dm      C        Bb      Dm
In these days of toil and trouble

Dm Am Bb F C    Dm

Bb               Dm
Honey, we're all resplendent,
     C                          Bb
Yeah honey, we are all thrift store
       C                 Dm
Like a wine-o with a $20 bill
C                           Bb
Yeah, forever and eternally yours
Bb                 Dm
And I can make you promises
C                       Bb
If you don't expect too much,
Bb              C       Dm
Yes, and I will run the distance
          C                        Bb
If you'll please, please excuse my crutch
Bb  Dm               C
How much of this was meant to be
Dm          C            Bb
How much the work of the Devil
    C                 Dm          Bb
How far can one man's eyes really see
          Dm      C        Bb
In these days of toil and trouble
Bb  Dm              C
How much of this is failing flesh
Dm         C              Bb
How much a course of retribution
Bb                    C         Dm   Bb
My, my, how loudly we plead our innocence
Dm            C        Bb     Dm
Long after we made our contribution
