High Noon
by Andrew Peterson
DADGAD tuning no capo (chord formations at bottom)
D
High noon in the valley of the shadow
D
When the deep of the valley was bright
D
When the mouth of the tomb
D/F# G A
Shouted, "Glory, the Groom is alive"
Bm A
So long, you wages of sin
D D/F# G
Go on, don't you come back again
Bm
I've been raised and redeemed
A
You've lost all your sting
Em
To the victor of the battle
D/F# G
At high noon in the valley
A D
In the valley of the shadow
D
Now the demons, they danced in the darkness
D/C#
When that last ragged breath left his lungs
D/B
And they reveled and howled
D G
At the war that they thought they had won
A Bm
But then, in the dark of the grave
D/F#
The stone rolled away
G A
In the still of the dawn on the greatest of days
G D
It was high noon in the valley of the shadow
D
When the shadows were shot through with light
D
When Jesus took in that breath
D/F# G A
And shattered all Death with his life
Bm A
So long, you wages of sin
D D/F# G
Go on, don't you come back again
Bm
I've been raised and redeemed
A
You've lost all your sting
Em
To the victor of the battle
D/F# G
High noon in the valley
A Bm A
In the valley of the shadow
G
Let the people rejoice
D D/C#
Let the heavens resound
G
Let the name of Jesus, who sought us
A Bm A
And freed us forever ring out
Bm
All praise to the fighter of the night
D/F#
Who rides on the light
G A
Whose gun in the grace of the God of the sky
D
High noon in the valley of the shadow
D
When the shadows were shot through with light
D
When the mouth of the tomb
D/F# G A
Shouted, "Glory, the Groom is alive"
Bm A
So long, you wages of sin
D D/F# G
I said go on, don't you come back again
Bm
I've been raised and redeemed
A
All praise to the King
Em
The victor of the battle
D/F# G
High noon in the valley
A D
In the valley of the shadow
