((A whole) note from Steve!: It's Gilles Labbe who transcribed this acoustic
part so I'm not really sure where the bars really go. Just keep
in mind that there's 2 bars for each chords and arpeggios)
Hey lord, hey lord, Time is running, time is short
Hey lord, hey lord, Why did you want us so wayward?
