Something To Believe In Acoustic Poison
Well[E] I see him on the T[A6]V preaching 'bout the promised lands
He [E]tells me to believe in Jesus steals [A6]them money from my hand
[E]Some say he was a g[A6]ood m[Emaj7]an but lord I think he s[A]inned [A] Yeah All right
[E]Twenty two years of mental tears [A6]cries a suicidal Vietnam vet
[E]Who fought a losing war on a foriegn shore[A6] to find his country didn't want him back
[E]Their bullets took his best friend in Saigon our lawyers[A6] took his wife and kids no regrets
[E]In a time I don't remember [A6]in a war he can't forget
He cried "F[E]orgive me for wh[A6]at I've done there ca[Emaj7]use I never meant the thi[A]ngs[A] I did”
(no chord) E
And give me something to believe in
If there's a[A6] Lord above
Give me something t[E]o believe in
Oh [A6]lord arise
E(one strum) A6(DUDU quick)
My best friend died a lonley man in some Palm Springs motel room
E(one strum) A6(one strum)
I got the call last Christmas Eve and they told me the news
[E]I tried all night not to break down and [A6]cry as the tears rolled down my face
[E]I felt so cold and empty [A6]like a lost soul out of place
And [E]mirror mirror [A6]on the wall see my [Emaj7]smile it fades aga[A]in [A]
(no chord) E
And give me something to believe in
If there's a [A6]lord above
Give me something to be[E]lieve in
Oh [A6]lord arise
Sometimes I [E]wish to God I [A6]didn't know now the[Emaj7] things I didn't know th[A]en
A B X2 A A
E A6 (x2)
[E] [A6] [Emaj7] [A] [A] I drive by th[E]e homeless sleeping on the cold dark street[A6] like bodies in an open grave
[E]Underneath the broken old neon sign that [A6]used to read "Jesus Saves"
A [E]mile away live the rich folks and I [A6]see how they livin' it up
While the[E] poor they eatin' from hand to mouth they[A6] drinkin' from a golden cup
[E]And it just makes me [A6]wonder [Emaj7]why so many lose and so few [A]win [A]
(no chord) E
And give me something to believe in
If there's a[A6] lord above
Give me something to [E]believe in
Oh [A6]lord arise
Repeat chorus with just “give me something to believe in”
Sometimes I [E]wish to God I [A6]didn't know now the[Emaj7] things I didn't know th[A]en [A]
[E] [A6] [Emaj7] [A]
(no chord) E(one strum)
And give me something to believe in
