Cemetery Song

(1, 2, 3, 4...)

[Verse 1]

Glory be, I can't believe
There's a seat at the table where you used to be
And shadows in my heart of sufferin'
Well sakes alive, sakes alive
If we could only tell you one last time
Now that you can't hear at what we've finally arrived

[Chorus]

There's no wondering where you are now
You're so far now that you can't get any farther away
There's no wondering where you are now
You're so far now that you can't get any farther away

[Verse 2]

I went from Tennessee to New Orleans
Every state of mind in between
For the life of me please tell me why
I've been from east to west, coast to coast
Lookin' for the pain that hurt me the most
More than anyone could ever hope to ignore

[Chorus]

There's no wondering where you are now
You're so far now that you can't get any farther away
There's no wondering how you'll be now
For I can see now and you can't get any farther away

[Verse 3]

There's a red sunset on the movie screen
With every shade of evening in between
This is how you'll always be to me so it seems
And in your arms I learned to breathe
You brought me up then let me be
Dared to let me go to set me free
