[Eb] [Ab]
[Eb] Well I see him on the TV preaching about the promised lands
He tells me believe 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
[Bb]
[Eb] 22 years of mental tears, cries of suicide on Vietnam Bay
He thought of losing more on a foreign show to find his country and to want him back
The bullets took his best friend to Saigon, our lawyers [Ab] took his wife, his kids, no regrets
[Eb] Anytime I don't remember, and a war he can't forget
He cried for me for what [Fm] I'd done there, [Bb] [Gm] cause I never meant the things [Ab] I did
Give me [Eb] something to believe in, [Ab] there's a Lord above
Give me [Eb] something to believe in, the old Lord [Ab]
arrives
[Eb] My best friend died a lonely man, [Ab] some farmsteads up in Kew Room
[Eb] I got the call last Christmas Eve, they told me the news
I tried all night not to break down and cry [Ab] as tears rolled down my face
[Eb] I felt so cold and empty, [Ab] like a lost soul out of place
[Eb] And the bitter, bitter [Fm] word of all the war, [Eb] he was smiling face [Ab] again
Give me [Eb] something to believe in, [Ab] there's a Lord above
Give me something [Eb] to believe in, the [Ab] old Lord arrives
Sometimes [Eb] I wish to God [Fm] I didn't know now, [Gm] the things I didn't [Ab] know then Bruce Javis

[Eb] by the homeless sleeping on a cold dark street
[Abm] Black bodies in an old bone grave
[Eb]
Underneath the broken old neon sign, I used to read Jesus saved
I see the rich folk, [Ab] and I see how they live it [Eb] up
While the poor they eat from hand to mouth, rich and [Ab] free from the growing [Eb] cut
And it just makes me [Fm] wonder, what's so great [Eb] to lose, so to [Ab] win
Give me [Eb] something to believe in
Give me something [Ab]
to [Eb] believe in
There's a Lord above
Give me something to believe in

Give [Eb] me something to believe in
Give me something [Ab] to believe in
There's a Lord above

Give me something [Eb] to believe in
There's a [Ab] Lord above
Give me something [Eb] to believe in
There's a Lord above
There's a Lord above
Give me something [Ab] to believe in
I'm a bad ass
[Eb] Yes, sometimes I wish [Fm] I didn't know that
[Gm] Things I didn't [Ab] know, they didn't
[Eb] Yeah
[Fm]
[Eb] [Ab]
And give [Eb] me something to believe in, yeah
