Intro

G C G

Verse 1

If Gthis is redemption, why do I bother at all?

There's Emnothing to mention, C and nothing has Gchanged

C Still I'd rather beD working at something,Em than praying for the rain

So I Cwander on, till Dsomeone else is Gsaved

Verse 2

same chords as Verse 1)

I moved to the coast, under a mountain

Swam in the ocean, slept on my own

At dawn i would watch the sun, cut ribbons through the bay

I'd remember all, the things my mother wrote

Chorus

That we don't Emeat until your Cfather's at the Gtable

And we don't Emdrink until the Cdevil's turned to Gdust

And never Emonce has any Cman I've met been G D/F♯able Emto love

So Cif I were you, I'd D have a little Gtrust Gsus4 G

Verse 3

Two thousand years, I've been in that water

Two thousand years, sunk like a stone

Desperately reaching for nets that the fishermen have thrown

Trying to find a little bit of hope

Verse 4

Me, I was holding, all of my secrets soft and hid

Pages were folded; then there was nothing at all

So if in the future I might, need myself a savior

I'll remember what was written on that wall

Chorus

That we don't eat until your father's at the table

And we don't drink until the devil's turned to dust

And never once has any man I've met been able to love

So if I were you, I'd have a little trust

Bridge

Dm Am I an honest man and Emtrue?

Have I been good to you at Dmall?

Oh I'm so tired of playing these Amgames

We'd just be running down

The Gsame old lines, the same old stories of

F Breathless trains and, worn down glories

Am Houses burning, worlds that turn

G On their own

Chorus

That we don't Emeat until your Cfather's at the Gtable

And we don't Emdrink until the Cdevil's turned to Gdust

And never Emonce has any Cman I've met been G D/F♯able Emto love

So if CI were you my friend

D Learn to have just a little bit of tGrust.
