Start Jamming...
[G#] Blessed are the meek [C#] for they shall inherit.
Blessed is the lamb [C#] whose blood [G#] flows.
[F#] Blessed are the sat upon, [C#] sat upon,
[B] rime, [F#]
[C#] oh Lord.
Why have you [F#]
[C#] forsaken me?
[G#]
I've got no place to go.
[C#]
I've walked around so for the last night or so.
Ah, but it doesn't [G#] matter, no.
[G#] [C#]
Blessed is the lamb [F#] and the [F] [C#] kingdom.
Blessed is [G#] the man whose [F#] soul [F] [G#] belongs to.
[F#] Blessed are the meth drinkers, pot sellers, illusion
[C#] dwellers.
Oh Lord, [D#] why have you [F#]
[C#] forsaken [G#] me?
My words trickle [C#] down from a wound that I have no [G#] intention to heal.
[C#]
Blessed [G#] are the stained [C#] glass window, pane glass.
Blessed is the church service, makes me nervous.
[F#]
Blessed are the penny rookers, cheap hookers, groovy [C#] lookers.
Oh Lord, why have you [F#]
[C#] forsaken me?
[G#]
I
[C#] have tended my own [G#] garden much too long.
[C#] [G#]
