IN YOUR MIND

by Johnny Cash

from the soundtrack to DEAD MAN WALKING

key of F# -- capo @2 to play along with recording

[E]

[E] IN YOUR MIND In your mind [B7]

[E] one foot on Jacob's ladder and [A]one foot in the [F#] fire

and it [A] all goes [B7] down in your [E] mind

[E] Livin' at the bottom of the stairs of life

[A] never a smile knockin' on your door

the [B7] air is blue and so are you

prehistoric monsters on the [E] floor

Last verse of your last song

and God don't hear dead men

the end of the line is in your mind

then you'll be stayin' in

In your mind In your mind

Bone for bone and skin for skin

eye for eye and tooth for tooth

heart for heart and soul for soul

somebody said "What is truth"?

Lock it up and close it down

the sound of mournin' like a dove

high beyond the rattlin' roar

lookin' to the face of love

[chorus:] [E] In your mind In your mind

it all goes down in your [B7] mind

one [E] foot on Jacob's ladder and [A] one foot in the [F#] fire

and it [A] all goes [B7] down in your mind

In your mind In your mind

Sunday words are back again

and you eat your fundamentalist pie

but just a piece you understand

you get the rest up in the sky

Praise and glory, wounded angels

shufflin' 'round the room

eternity is down the hall

and you sit there bendin' spoons

In your mind In your mind

Father, Son, and Holy Ghost

sacrificial drops of pain

on a silver plated cross

sanctification on a chain

Thay say redemption draweth nigh

the storms of silence from above

stop your ears and close your eyes

and try to find the face of love

[Repeat Chorus twice]
