The first initial guitar riff is a quick-like walk down from Bm, A, to G, and back to A.
You�ll have to listen to the actual song to hear how the chords change�but it�s obvious.


VERSE 1
Bm A G A (repeat riff)
Baby I'll be your soldier
Bm A G A (repeat riff)
Gladly I'll do your bidding
Bm A G A (repeat riff)
For just a taste of what you're holding
Bm A G A (repeat riff)
For just a taste you could own me

CHORUS 1
Em G D A/C#
Save your sermons for someone thats afraid to love
Em G D F#7 (or just F#)
I'll be right here lying in the hands of God

VERSE 2
(same chords as first verse)
Here it comes dive right into me
Now the floor is the ceiling
If you never flew why would you?
Cut the wings off a butterfly


CHORUS 2
Emin G D A/C#
Save your sermons, for someone who's afraid to love

But I'll be right here, lying in the hands of God.
