Verse:
           D5
It was the morning of All Saint's Day, 'ninety eight
          E7sus4                                   D5         D5
When that old blind dog started roaming around the graveyard
D5
Wouldn't have bothered me so much
            E7sus4                               D5      D5

And looking for a sign from the true son of Virginia

Verse:
         D5
When the storm blew over we made our way
       E7sus4                            D5         D5
To the old hay wain to infiltrate the sarcophagus
       D5
By the dim light of a narrow window we saw
    E7sus4                           D5           D5
The God's honest truth staring right back at us

Chorus:

Recite my lineage and genealogy

You've got to know your history, son of Virginia

    B5                                         D5     D5
And looking for a sign from the true son of Virginia
C5
Stare into the embers on the first of November
    B5                                      D5
And remember you were born a true son of Virginia

I was thrown to the ground as my world broke asunder
Truly we are living in an age of wonder
Truly we are living in an age of wonder

When that old blind dog started calling me associate
D5
Wouldn't have bothered me so much

were it not for the fact That was the truth of it

I wept like a child as the son rose above her
Truly we are living in an age of wonder.
