Something to Believe In
guitar chords lyrics
I don't know the official version of the song, but this is how I play it and I
think it sounds pretty da*n good. (feel free to judge)
E Asus2
Well I see him on the TV preaching 'bout the promised land
E Asus
He tells me to believe in Jesus steals the money from my hand
E F#m G#m A
Some say he was a good man lord I think he sinned
E Asus2
Twenty two years of mental tears cries a suicidal Vietnam vet
E
Who fought a losing war on a foreign shore
Asus
to find his country didn't want him back
E
Their bullets took his best friend in Saigon
Asus
Our lawyers took his wife and kids no regrets
E Asus
In a time I don't remember in a war he can't forget
E F#m G#m
He cried "Forgive me for what I've done there cause I never meant the
A
things I did ...
E
And give me something to believe in
Asus
If there's a lord above
E Asus
Give me something to believe in, Oh lord arise
E Asus
My best friend died a lonely man in some Palm Springs motel room
E Asus
I got the call last Christmas Eve and they told me the news
E Asus
I tried all night not to break down and cry as the tears rolled down my face
E Asus
I felt so cold and empty like a lost soul out of place
E F#m G#m A
And mirror mirror on the wall sees a smile than fades again
E
And give me something to believe in
Asus
If there's a lord above
E Asus
Give me something to believe in, Oh lord arise
E F#m G#m A
Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now the things I didn't know then
Solo: (yeah, you�re chord players � you don�t play solos!)
E
I drive by the homeless sleeping on the cold dark street
Asus
like bodies in an open grave
E Asus
Underneath the broken old neon sign that used to read "Jesus Saves"
E Asus
A mile away live the rich folks and I see how they livin' it up
E Asus
While the poor they eat from hand to mouth the rich drink from a golden cup
E F#m G#m A
And it just makes me wonder why so many lose and so few win
E
Now give me something to believe in
Asus
If there's a lord above
E Asus
Give me something to believe in, Oh lord arise
E F#m G#m A
Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now the things I didn't know then
E
Oh give me something to believe in.
Know its not perfect ... but it works in every bar I perform in.
