He collected up some baby blasted mothers, they took their chances, and for a [E] while they lived quite happily up there.
He came from New [B] York City, man, but he couldn't take the pace, and thought it was like a dog-eat-dog world.
Then he went to San Francisco, spent a year and a half in space, [E] with a sweet little San Franciscan girl.
I can hear my mother wailing, and a whole lot of scraping of chairs.

Big yourself, _ Lazarus, big [B] yourself, _ Lazarus, big yourself, _ Lazarus, big yourself,
[E]
back in that hole.
Larry made his nest up in the autumn branches, [B] _
built from nothing but high hopes and thin air.
He collected up some baby blasted mothers, they took their chances, and for a [E] while they lived quite happily up there. _
He came from New [B] York City, man, but he couldn't take the pace, and thought it was like a dog-eat-dog world. _
Then he went to San Francisco, spent a year and a half in space, [E] with a sweet little San Franciscan girl. _
I can hear my mother wailing, and a whole lot of scraping of chairs.
[B] _ I _ _ [C] don't know what it is, but [G] there's definitely [D] something going on upstairs.
[B] _ Lazarus, big yourself, _ Lazarus, big yourself, _ Lazarus, big yourself, [E] back in that hole.
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ [Em]
Meanwhile, Larry made up [B] names for the ladies, like Miss Boo and Miss Quick.
He stockpiled weapons and took pot shots in the air.
He feasted on their lovely bodies like a lunatic, and wrapped himself up in their soft yellow hair. _ _ _ _
I can hear chants and [A] _ [E] incantations, and some [B] guy is mentioning [E] me in his [B] prayers. _ _ _
Well, [C] I don't know what it is, but [G] there's definitely something going [B] on upstairs.
_ _ [E] Lazarus, big yourself, [B] _ Lazarus, big yourself, _ Lazarus, big yourself, [E] back in that [E] hole.
_ [Em] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ [D] Well, New York City, man, [E] San [D] Francisco, L [E].A., I don't [Eb] know, but Larry [B] grew increasingly neurotic and obscene.
I mean, he never asked to be raised up from the [D] tomb.
I mean, no one ever [Em] actually asked [B] him to forsake his [E] dreams.
[Em] And he ended up like [B] so many of them do, back on the streets of [Eb] New [Em] York City, in a soup queue, a dope [B] fiend, a slave, then prison, then the madhouse, [Eb] then the [E] grave.
_ [B] Oh, poor [E] Larry.
_ But what do we really know of the dead, and who actually cares?
[B] _ _ _ _ Well, [C] I don't know what it is, but [G] there's definitely [D] something going [E] on upstairs.
[B] _ Lazarus, [Em] big yourself, _ [B] Lazarus, big yourself, _ Lazarus, big yourself, [Em] back in that hole.
_ Lazarus, big yourself, [B] _ Lazarus, big yourself, Lazarus, big yourself, [E] back in that hole.
[B] _ Lazarus, big yourself, Lazarus, big yourself, [Bm] Lazarus, big yourself, _ [E] _
_ [B] _ [E] Lazarus, big [A] yourself, Lazarus, [Em] big yourself, [B] Lazarus, big yourself, [Bb] back [Em] in that hole. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
