Am7 - Open A string
F - F on low E string
C - C on A string
Gsus - G on low E
Oh my Am7God, look around this pFlace,
Fingers reCach around the bone,
You set the Gsusbreak, you set the tGone,
Flights of gAm7race, and future faFlls,
In present pCain, all foolGsuss saGy,
Oh my GFod C G F C G
(This pattern continues for the next two verses)
Oh my God, why are we so afraid?
We make it worse when we don't bleed,
There is no cure for our disease,
Turn a phrase, and rise again,
Or fake your death, and only tell, your closest friends,
Oh my God
Oh my God, can I complain?
You take away my firm belief
And graft my soul upon your grief
Weddings, boats, and alibis,
All drift away
And a mother cries
Liars and fools, sons and failures,
Theives will always say
Lost and found, FaiGling wanderers,
HeCalers always sFay
WhAm7ores and angels, mGen with problems,
LeCavers always sFay
(The rest of the chords are as above until noted)
Broken hearted, seperated,
Orphans always say
War-creators, racial-haters,
Preachers always say
Distant fathers, fallen warriors,
Givers always say
Pilgrim saints, lonely widows,
Users always say
Fearful mothers, watchful doubters,
Saviors always say
SAm7ometimes I cannot forgive
And tGhese days mercy cuts so deep
ICf the world was how it should be
MFaybe I could get some sleep
WAm7hile I lay I dream we're better
ScGales were gone and faces lighter
WChen we wake we hate our brother
FWe still move to hurt each other
(The chords for the rest of the song are as above)
Sometimes I can close my eyes
And all the fear that keeps me silent
Falls below my heavy breathing
What makes me so badly bent
We all have a chance to murder
We all feel the need for wonder
We still want to be reminded
That the pain is worth the thunder
Sometimes when I lose my grip
I wonder what to make of Heaven
All the times I thought to reach up
All the times I had to give up
Babies underneath their beds
Hospitals that cannot treat
All the wounds that money causes
All the comforts of cathedrals
All the cries of thirsty children
This is our inheritance
All the rage of watching mothers
This is our greatest offence
Oh my God, Oh my God,
Oh my God
