INTRO:
[E] [F#m] [E] [F#m] [G#m] [F#m] [G#m] [A]
[E]I came home from school on Tuesday
[F#m]To find my mother gone
[E]Why she left I’ll never know
[F#m]It seemed like they got along
[G#m]But one of these days I’d like to [F#m]know
[G#m]Just where it all went wrong [A]
[E]A woman torn to tears asks
[F#m]Who the real criminals are
Or when they tol[E]d ‘er her husband died
Fighting in another coun[F#m]try’s drug wars
She said it isn’[E]t the kids on the streets without a dream
[F#m]Shooting up the dealer’s smack
It’s them a red-[E]tape politicians
Digging on the dru[F#m]g lords kick-backs
[G#m]Isn’t it funny what power and mo[F#m]ney
[G#m]Can do to the soul of a man? [A]
And give me something to believe in[E]
If there’s a lor[F#m]d above
I give me something to believe i[E]n
[F#m]If there’s a lord above
[E]He got a second job at night now
[F#m]Just to help pay the bills
[E]And there he worked for the rest of his life
Cuz his w[F#m]ife had taken him in
Now he li[E]ves on a bottle of courage
[F#m]He buys at the liquor store
[E]He did his family real good
Till he c[F#m]ouldn’t do it anymore
[G#m]Whatever he found, why h[F#m]e broke down
[G#m]No one’s really sure [A]
Just needed something to believe in [E]
If there’s a lor[F#m]d above
He needed something to believe in [E]
Oh lord [F#m]arise
The tracks of soci[G#m]ety’s racial on the old man’s f[F#m]ace
[G#m]His eyes blood red lay to waste [A]
SOLO CHORDS (see bottom for timing of A to Asus2 chords):
[E] [A] [Asus2] [A] [Asus2] [G#m] [F#m] [G#m] [A]
Well the mir[E]ror tells a different story
Than the on[F#m]e that’s playin’ in my mind
Every ti[E]me I swear I’m lookin’ younger
The more li[F#m]nes that I find
I guess I le[E]arned to trade youth for wisdom
And[F#m] lust in for romance
[E]It’s all written in the stages and phases
Of[F#m] life’s little dance
And when I w[G#m]anna bitch about gro[F#m]win’ old
[G#m]I think of how many never had a chance [A]
It gives me something to believe in [E]
Oh lord [F#m]arise (x4) [E] [F#m] [E] [F#m]
[G#m]Sometimes I wish I didn’t [F#m]know now
[G#m]Things I didn’t know then [A] [E] [F#m] [G#m] [A]
And give me something to believe in [E]
