[Intro] E [Chorus]
E                        B7
[tab]E                              A               F#
One foot on Jacob's ladder and one foot in the fire

       A        B7           E
And it all goes down in your mind
[Verse 1]
E                                           A
Livin' at the bottom of the stairs of life; never a smile knockin' on your door.

    B7                                                      E
The air is blue and so are you, prehistoric monsters on the floor.

E                                A
Last verse of your last song and God don't hear dead men.

    B7                                                      E
The end of the line is in your mind, then you'll be stayin' in.
[Verse 2]
E
In your mind, in your mind.

E                                A
Bone for bone and skin for skin; eye for eye and tooth for tooth;

B7                                                             E
Heart for heart and soul for soul. Somebody said "What is truth"?

E                                 A
Lock it up and close it down. The sound of mournin' like a dove,

B7                                                    E
High beyond the rattlin' roar, lookin' to the face of love.
[Chorus]
E                                               B7
In your mind In your mind,; it all goes down in your mind.

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

       A        B7           E
And it all goes down in your mind
[Verse 3]
E
In your mind, in your mind.

E                                   A
Sunday words are back again and you eat your fundamentalist pie

    B7                                                      E
but just a piece you understand; you get the rest up in the sky.

E                                A
Praise and glory, wounded angels shufflin' 'round the room.

 B7                                                 E
Eternity is down the hall and you sit there bendin' spoons.
[Verse 4]
E
In your mind, in your mind.

E                            A
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Sacrificial drops of pain

B7                                            E
on a silver plated cross; sanctification on a chain.

E                                     A
Thay say redemption draweth nigh; the storms of silence from above

B7                                                             E
stop your ears and close your eyes and try to find the face of love
[Chorus]
E                                               B7
In your mind In your mind,; it all goes down in your mind.

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

       A        B7           E
And it all goes down in your mind
[Chorus]
E                                               B7
In your mind In your mind,; it all goes down in your mind.

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

       A        B7           E
And it all goes down in your mind
