D
Last night I wrote a prayer
D
To the water in my head
A11
Read the book my mother read
D
D
See I don't believe in God
D
At least not one that's not
A11
As human as me
And anyone, that ever was
D
G
See I have to believe
There's some kind of deity
D
In lonely eyes
In looming trees
G
I can't count upon
Heaven or hell or law
D
But I'm scared and lonely
Amen
D
D
In history there's faith
When children die people pray
A11
And that's just human nature
D
It's my instinct to believe
There is something more than me
A11
But I can't name what I can't see
D
G
See I have to believe
There's some kind of deity
D
In broken bones
In skin that bleeds
G
I can't count upon
Heaven or hell or law
D
When I'm scared and lonely
Amen
D
Amen
Amen
Amen
Amen
D
Amen
Amen
Amen
Amen
