True Devotion is a song, and it's on the upcoming record.
And that song I wrote when I was in Tangier during Ramadan.
The idea, True Devotion, I'd had the title for a while.
Like the concept, I could feel it.
I understood what it meant spiritually,
but I couldn't find the words for it yet.
I wasn't sure how to write that idea out and make
it sound compelling and not cheesy or whatever.
And so I was in Tangier during Ramadan,
and all through the night, there's
prayer and chanting and drumming in the streets.
And it's really just this sort of visual and audio feast,
24-7, and the intensity of devotion and the whole community
sharing that devotion and that common sentiment and focus.
And I'd never really experienced devotion
in such an all-encompassing way before.
And so it really, the song just kind of wrote itself.
[G] I had [Am] a little [Em] bit of the melody.
The melody finished itself, and all the words
just came through [Am] real clear.
[Em]
And that was that.
[Am] [Em]
[C] [G] [C] [G]
No matter where [Am] you go, I'm [Em] going to follow.
[G] No matter [Am] where you've been, [Em] I'm going to stay.
[G] No matter if [A] your heart it [Em] changes,
or your [G] desires rearrange.
I'll stand tall [C] beside you [G] like I said.
[Am] I'm [Em] giving you all my love, [G] and [Am] you don't [Em] have to wait.
[G]
[Am] I'm learning [E] the [G] true [C] devotion [G] and learning,
[C] and I'll [G] love you as you came.
[Am] [Em]
[G] [Am] [Em]
[G] [Am] [Em] [C] [G]
[C] [G]
No matter [Am] when you call, [Em] I'm going to answer.
[G] No matter how [Am] you change, I [Em] will remain.
[G]
No matter if [A] your [Em] fears come calling,
you will [C] hear me saying [G] you'll hold me.
I'll be [C] beside you [G] like I said.
[Am] I'm [Em] giving you all my [G] love, and you don't have to wait.
[Am] You [Em] don't have to wait.
[G] [Am] I'm learning [Em] the true [C]
[G] devotion and learning,
and [C] I'll love you [G] as you came.
[Am] Oh, I'm learning how to love you in your way.
[G] And my darling, [C] that love [G] just ain't going to change.
[Am] I've been learning how to love you as you came.
[G] And my darling, that love just won't change.
[Am] Oh, [Em] oh,

[G] [Am] oh, oh, [Em] oh, oh, [C] oh,

[G] No matter where [Am] you've been, I'm [Em] going to stay.
[Gm] No matter if your [Am] heart, it changes,
[Em] or your [C] desires rearrange, [G] I'll stand [C] tall beside you
like [G] I say.
Because [Am] I'm [Em] giving you all my love,
and, [G] baby, [Am] oh, you don't [Em] have to wait.
[G] I'm [Am] [Em] learning the true [C] devotion [G] and learning,
and [C] I'll love you [G] as you came.
Well, [Am] I'm giving [Em] you all my love,
[G] and, baby, oh, you [Am] don't [Em] have to wait.
[G] Because [Am] I'm [C] learning [Em] the true [C] devotion [G] and learning,
[C] and I'll love you [G] as you came.
[Em] Oh, I'm learning [C] how to love you as [G] you came.
