This transcription is not my own work; it was contributed to the site by another derek webb fan.

I haven't had a lot of time for guitar recently, but this is one of several tabs that various nice people have sent me. I haven't reviewed or editted them, so no guarantees about accuracy, but I'm sure people will find them useful. If you have transcribed a Caedmon's Call or derek webb song that's not already on this site, please feel free to send it in to be shared here.

A King & A Kingdom
Derek Webb - Mockingbird
Transcribed by John Huss

Capo II

D                              Em9
Who's your brother, who's your sister
D
You just walked passed him
            Em9
I think you missed her
         A
As we're all migrating to the place
          D
Where our father lives
          Bm                        Asus      A7
'Cause we married in to a family of immigrants


G        Gm                D            E7
My first allegiance is not to a flag, a country, or a man
G        Gm                D            E7
My first allegiance is not to democracy or blood
G         A               D
It's to a king & a kingdom


There are two great lies that i've heard:
The day you eat of the fruit of that tree, you will not surely die
And that Jesus Christ was a white, middle-class republican
And if you wanna be saved you have to learn to be like Him


    D                      E7
But nothing unifies like a common enemy
          F
And we've got one, sure as hell
              G
But he may be living in your house
          A
He may be raising up your kids
          Bb7
He may be sleeping with your wife
       C7                       D
Oh no, he may not look like you think
