Intro: D Verse 1: D On my grimy dresser there is a bottle of blue pills G And every morning I put one beneath my tongue and hold it still D And Mary has left me a note there's breakfast on the stove G -nc- G But she wakes up early next to John, and all the eggs are cold D Then Jesus comes to me again and grinning lifts his shirt G And I trace the scars on his chest, that his virgin birth D Had led him to, he was in a bind but he embraced the sacred G And God held his face and knew it but it still didn't save him Pre-Chorus: Bm D And I see far horizons where the lambs lie with the lions G But there are poppies growing over where my friends are lying Bm D And Paul had an old name but we never use it G You may call me traitor but my lover calls me Judas Chorus: Bm D G Hosannah! Hosannah! Hosannah in the highest! Bm D G Bm D G Hosannah! Hosannah! Hosannah in the highest! Post-Chorus: Bm D G D Verse 2: D I'm upstairs breathing in the scented oil on his skin G And exactly as he taught, I take the holy spirit in D The body on my tongue and the blood dripping down my mouth G -nc- G Oh, who among us apostles, has ever been unclouded without sin? D Is counting silver now the only time you think of me? G I who dared to love unblinking the bright son of Galilee D On the mountain he held all creation in his sight G And foresaw the killing kiss we shared in Gethsemane that night Pre-Chorus: Bm D So down through the ages let my name be ever known G As the one who gave him up to death so he can roll away the stone Bm D You curse me, but he loved me too, he held me in his arms G And I'm only Judas Iscariot, he was the son of God Chorus: Bm D G Hosannah! Hosannah! Hosannah in the highest! Bm D G Hosannah! Hosannah! Hosannah in the highest! Bm D G Amen Amen Amen Amen Bm D G Amen Amen Hallelujah Bm D G Amen Outro: Bm D G And it's cold out here, out here alone, in the potter's field.
