Dm Dm Dm F
[Verse 1]
Dm
Hey redeemer now what`s become of me?
F C
Taken in by promise, awakening in grief
Dm
Collecting us like puppets you instrumentalize
F C
A frigid trepidation in a million puppet eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb F Bb C
God gave His word just to let us down, where is He now?
[Chorus]
G D
You've been facing heaven
C Am D
You were lost and left alone, you're welcome to my home and
G D
Found another heaven
C Am D
It was you who took my hand, come into the promised land
[Pre-Verse]
Dm Dm Dm F
[Verse 2]
Dm
You scratched my back and I scratched yours
F C
It's you who makes decisions, I just open up the doors
Dm
Whining in the gutter they forget their sanctity
F C
Welcome to my clockwork vanity machinery
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb F Bb C
You gave your word, you let me down what am I now?
[Chorus]

You've been facing heaven
C Am D
You were lost and left alone, you're welcome to my home and
G D
Found another heaven
C Am D C
It was you who took my hand, come into the promised land
[Bridge]
C Em
Oh as far as the eye can see
C Em
They're bent in submission, empty inside
C Em
An army of scarecrows like me, thousands of broken dreams
C Em
Thousands of tragedies tried to run from their destiny
C D
Oh, like moths to a flame, driven by vanity
C D D
They've been off to Jerusalem, chasing a dream, calling on me
Dm
We're just trading in needs
[Pre-Verse] in place of the guitar solo
Dm Dm Dm F
[Chorus] x2
G D
You've been facing heaven
C Am D
You were lost and left alone, you're welcome to my home and
G D
Found another heaven
C Am D
It was you who took my hand, come into the promised land
[End]
G
