Chords for Lauryn Hill - "Adam Lives In Theory" - Live (2001)

[F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Am] _ _ [Gm] _ _
[F] _ _ [Gm] Adam lives in theory, [Am] trying [Gm] to turn stone [F] into bread
[Gm] _ Masquerading [Am] like he's [Gm] got it figured [F] out
_ [Gm] Cut off from [Am] the sunshine, [Gm] only smart [F] in his own [Bb] head
Leaving his [Am] descendants [Gm] to hope and [F] doubt
_ [Gm] Left to his [Am] devices, [Gm] _
those worthless [F] [Bb] sacrifices
_ [Am] Praying to the [Gm] altar of his self
[F] _ _ [Bb] Making [Am] pilgrimages, [Gm]
thinking [F] he's religious
[Bb] Like [Am] he's got all the [Gm] light in the [Dm] house
He takes the unsuspected, cause he knows they're not [Gm] connected
And he shows them how to be just as he [Dm] is
_ Virtually real, and commercially [Am] appeal
To the lust of all [Gm] the people where he lives
[F] _ [Gm] Eve was so [Am] naive, blinded [Gm] by the pride and [F] greed
[Gm] Wanting to be [Am] intellectual
[Gm] _ _
[F] Drifting [Gm] from [Am] the way she [Gm] got turned down [F] one day
And [Bb] now she thinks that [Am] she's bisexual
[Gm] _ _
[Dm] Caught up in emotion, _ burning up in her [Gm] devotion
To the king of exploitation in the field
[Dm] She handed him her virtue, cause he told her, I want [Am] her too
So she laid with him to see [Gm] how good it feels
Now [F] can you tell [Bb] me what, what we gonna [Am] do now
[Gm] Where we [F] gonna go [Bb] now, what we [Am] gonna [Gm] say now
[F] Can you [Bb] tell me what, what we gonna [Am] do now
[Gm] Where we gonna [F] go [Bb] now, what [Am] we gonna [Gm] say [F] now
[Bb] Now after the sensational, [Am] [Gm] the empty [F] fornication
[Bb] She brought affection home [Am] into a [Gm] bag _
[F] Quickly _ [Bb] _ [Am] multiplying, [Gm] now the three of them are [F] dying
By the [Bb] poison she perceived to [Am] be good [Gm] hay _
[F] Naive [Gm] _ and a [Am] husband, [Gm] reverting in their [F] judgment
[Bb] Cause everything [Am] appears to be [Gm] the same
[F] They [Bb] entertain [Am] suggestions, [Gm] next time just use [F] protection
_ [Bb] Desiring the cover [Am] of their [Gm] shame
[Dm] But much to their demise, poor decision closed their [Gm] eyes
To the very antidote to their dilemma _ _
[Dm] _ Burning in their lust, both of them were [Am] delterous
Destroying the [Gm] original agenda _
[F] _ [Bb] Praying to the [Am] sky in order [Gm] to maintain a [F] lie
They [Bb] exhausted every [Am] possible conclusion
[Gm] _ _
[F] They [Gm] can't even [Am] detain the [Gm] solution in a [F] brain
Filled with [Bb] faint information [Am] and pollution
[Gm] _ _
[Dm] Hiding from the truth, he provided an [Gm] excuse
To explain away his desperate situation _
[Dm] When confronted blamed his wife, giving birth to come [Am] alive
Refusing to [Gm] acknowledge what he'd done
[F] Now if [Bb] we can't agree [Am] with who created [Gm] us to be
[F] Who sets the [Bb] guilty, everyone [Am] before [Gm] his eyes _
[F] _ [Bb] Making no [Am] exceptions [Gm] since the day of [F] our conception
[Bb] Predisposed to hating [Am] truth and loving [Gm] lies
Then can [F] you tell me [Bb] what, what [Am] we gonna do [Gm] now
Where we gonna [F] go [Bb] now, [Am] what we gonna say [Gm] now
[F] Then can you tell me [Bb] what, what [Am] we gonna do now
[Gm] Where [F] we gonna go now, [Bb] _ [Am] what we gonna say [Gm] now
[Dm] Stop _ walking and crying, [Gm] let the thief be [Am] crucified
Or learn everything you know and [Gm] let him teach you
_ [Dm] _
_ Line upon line, [Gm] hand precept upon [Am] precept
Say goodbye [Gm] to this decaying social system
[Dm] _ He wants to [Gm] know how far we're willing [Am] to go
_ Like we say [Gm] we do, he'll try us
[Dm] _ Just don't [Gm] regress or slip into [Am] hopelessness
Once he's satisfied his [Gm] love he won't deny us
[Fm] And then he'll tell us [Bb] what, what we [Am] gonna do now
[Gm] What _
[F] _ _ [Bb] we [Am] gonna say [Gm] now
[F] And then he'll tell us [Bb] what, what [Am] we gonna do [Gm] now
[F] Where we gonna go [Bb] now, what [Am] we gonna say [Gm] now
[F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Am] _ [Gm] _ _
[F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Am] _ [Gm] _ _
[F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Am] _ [Gm] _ _
