E
Will I see him on the tv
Asus2
Preachin? ?bout the promised land
E
He tells me to believe in jesus
Asus2
And steals the money from my hand
E
Some say he was a good man
Asus2
But lord I think he sinned, yeah
E?
Twenty-two years of mental tears
Cries a suicidal vietnam vet
Who fought a losing war on a foreign shore
To find his country didn?t want him back
Their bullets took his best friend in saigon
Our lawyers took his wife and kids, no regrets
In a time I don?t remember
In a war he can?t forget
E F#m
He cried forgive me for what I?ve done there
G#m A
Cause I never meant the things I did
Chorus:
E
And give me something to believe in
Asus2
If there?s a lord above
E
And give me something to believe in
Asus2
Oh, lord arise
E?
My best friend died a lonely man
In some palm springs hotel room
I got the call last christmas eve
And they told me the news
E
I tried all night not to break down and cry
As the tears rolled down my face

I felt so cold and empty
Like a lost soul out of place
E F#m
And the mirror, mirror on the wall
G#m A
Sees my smile it fades again
{Chorus}
E F#m
Sometimes I wish to God I didn?t know now
G#m A
The things I didn?t know then
Road you gotta take me home
{Solo}
E?
I drive by the homeless sleeping on a cold dark street
Like bodies in an open grave
Underneath the broken old neon sign
That used to read jesus saves
E?
A mile away live the rich folks
And I see how they?re living it up
While the poor they eat from hand to mouth
The rich is drinkin? from a golden cup
E F#m
And it just makes me wonder
G#m A
Why so many lose, so few win
{Chorus}
You take the high road
And I?ll take the low road
E F#m
Yeah Sometimes I wish I didn?t know now
G#m A
The things I didn?t know then
E
And give me something to believe in
