Biography:
John Mark McMillan is an indie rock artist from Charlotte, North Carolina, United States, where he grew up playing in local rock bands. In June of 2005, McMillan released his first album, Hope Anthology Volume One. Just a few months after the release of this album, McMillan lost his best friend in a tragic accident, bringing him into a troubling time. It was the grief caused by this accident, and the subsequent rise from it, that inspired him to create his second anthology, The Song Inside The Sounds of Breaking Down.

Reckoning Day
From "The Medicine"
Tabbed by thatchadmiller (Twitter)
He's using similar weird chord shapes on this song as on other tracks on The
Medicine. I'm pretty sure he's playing the D and D/C# in a similar pattern,
but I did them in standard shape to make it flow easier.
Verse 1
Bm4 A6sus4 G6 G6/F#
The lions in the street bend their heads for the reckoning day
Bm4 B A6sus4 B G6 G6/F#
Cause the interstate's giving up her dead for the reckoning day
A6
Would you come alive everybody
Bm4
Would you come alive everyone
G6 G6/F# Bm4
Get up out of bed for the sound of the song unsung
Verse 2
Bury all your guns in the sand cause the temperature's changed
and the blood shot eye of the sun stains the bones of the slain
Would you come alive everybody
Would you come alive everyone
Get up out of bed for the sound of the song unsung
Verse 3
The hour's gonna take you apart on the reckoning day
If the property lines of your heart are drawn in the clay
Would you come alive everybody
Would you come alive everyone
Get up out of bed for the sound of the song unsung
Verse 4
The tide water's taxing the shores of the washing away
The flood stands high at your doors of the houses you made
Would you come alive everybody
Would you come alive everyone
Get up out of bed for the sound of the song unsung
Chorus 1
D D/C# Bm4
Lift up your head Oh you gate
Em9 D
Lift up your eyes all you who wait
D/C# Bm4
Daughter and son ashes and dust
Em9
Come untied from the weight of the age
Instrumental
Bm4 - A6sus4 - Em9
Chorus 2
D D/C# Bm4
Lift up your head Oh you gate
Gmaj7 D
Lift up your eyes all you who wait
D/C# Bm4
Daughter and son ashes and dust
G6 Bm4 - A6sus4 - Em9
Come untied from the weight of the age
