G ( C ) G
If this is redemption, why do I bother at all?
Em C G
There's nothing to mention, and nothing has changed
C D Em
Still I'd rather be working for something, than praying for the rain
C D G
So I wander on, till someone else is saved
G ( C ) G
I moved to the coast, under a mountain
Em C G
Swam in the ocean, slept on my own
C D Em
At dawn I would watch the sun, cut ribbons through the bay
C D G
I'd remember all, the things my mother wrote
Em C G
That we don't eat until your father's at the table
Em C G
And we don't drink until the devil's turned to dust
Em C G D Em
And never once has any man I've met been able to love
C D G
So if I were you, I'd have a little trust
G ( C ) G
Two thousand years, I've been in that water
Em C G
Two thousand years, sunk like a stone
C D Em
Desperately reaching for nets that the fishermen have thrown
C D G
Trying to find a little bit of hope
G ( C ) G
Me, I was holding, all of my secrets soft and hid
Em C G
Pages were folded; then there was nothing at all
C D Em
So if in the future I might, need myself a savior
C D G
I'll remember what was written on that wall
Em C G
That we don't eat until your father's at the table
Em C G
And we don't drink until the devil's turned to dust
Em C G D Em
And never once has any man I've met been able to love
C D G
So if I were you, I'd have a little trust
Dm Em
Am I an honest man and true?
Dm
Have I been good to you at all?
Am
Oh I'm so tired of playing these games
We'd just be running down
G
The same old lines, the same old stories of
F
Breathless trains and, worn down glories
Am
Houses burning, worlds that turn
G
On their own
Em C G
That we don't eat until your father's at the table
Em C G
And we don't drink until the devil's turned to dust
Em C G D Em
And never once has any man I've met been able to love
C
So if I were you my friend
D G
Learn to have just a little bit of trust.
