[Verse 1]
And I met the seventh son, ​he came for everyone
​The day he heard the lightning in the field
​I heard him clear his throat, ​a fork within the road
That night the Tallahatchie took the wheel

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I've been throwin' knives to see just where they'll land
​Now my world is in your hands

[Chorus]
Send in the congregation
​Open your eyes, step in the light
​A jukebox generation
Just as you were

[Verse 2]
The voice upon the stage is the heart inside a cage
​And it's singin' like a bluebird in the round
​There's mystery in this wood and ghosts within these roots
​That are tangled deep beneath this southern ground

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I've been goin' through life makin' foolish plans
​Now my world is in your hands
[Chorus]
Send in the congregation
​Open your eyes, step in the light
​A jukebox generation
​Just as you were, right!
Just as you were
Just as you were, alright!

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
And you need blind faith
​No false hope
No false hope
​Do you have blind faith?
​No false hope
No false hope
​Where is your blind faith?
​No false hope
No false hope
​Open your eyes
Open your eyes
​Step into the light!
​
[Chorus]
Open your eyes, step into the light
​The sound becomes congregation
A congregation
A congregation
Yeah!
[Outro]
And they're singing like a bluebird in the round
