[Ab]
[Fm]
[Eb]
Well I see him on the TV preaching about the promised lands.
He tells me he believes in Jesus, [Cm] steals the money from my hands.
[Eb] Some say he was [Fm] a good man, [Eb] Lord I think [Ab] he's sinning.
[C]
[Eb] One or two years of mental tears, he tries to suicide on Vietnam Bay.
He thought of losing more on a foreign shore, the finest country didn't want him back.
The police took his best friends in Saigon, our lawyers took his wife, his kids, no regrets.
Anytime I don't remember, and a war he can forget.
He cried forgiving me for what [F] I'd done there, [Gm] cause I never meant the things [Ab] I did.
God give me [Eb] something to believe in, if [Ab] there's a Lord above.
God give me [Eb] something to believe in, oh Lord of wrath.
Best friend died a lonely man, in some homestreams hotel room.
I got the call last Christmas evening, told me the news.
I tried all night not to break down and cry, as tears rolled down my face.
I felt so cold and empty, like a lost soul out of place.
And in the middle of it [Fm] all, she [Eb] was smiling face [Ab] again.
[Eb] God give me something to believe in, if there's a Lord above.
[Ab] God give me something [Eb] to believe in, oh Lord of wrath.
It's time to wish the God I [Fm] didn't know now, [Gm] things I didn't [Ab] know then.

drive by [Eb] the homeless sleeping on a cold dark street, like bodies in an old bone grave.
[Bb] Underneath the broken [Eb] old neon sign, I used to read Jesus' saints.
And I see how they're living it up, while the poor they eat from hands and mouths.
They drink it from the golden cup, and it just makes me [Fm] wonder,
why so many [Eb] lose something [Ab] to lose.
God give me [Eb] something to believe in.
Give me something to believe [Ab]
in.
Something to believe [Bb]
in.
Something [Cm]
to believe in.
[Ab]
I'm giving [Eb] something to believe in.
Take that!
Give me something to believe in.
Take that!
I'm giving something to believe in.
[Ab] Take that!
I'm giving something to believe in. Take that!
[Eb] Yes, there's times I wish [Fm] I didn't know now.
[Gm] Things I didn't [Ab] know, baby.
[Eb] [Ab]
[Eb] [Bb]
And give [Eb] me something to believe in.
Yeah.
