[Verse 1]
             Am
If there's a God

                                       C
Do you think he's looking down, curled up on his couch right now?

              Dm
As we fail to figure it out, does he turn down the sound?

      Em
Is he proud? Are we proud?

         Am
Guess we forgot how to live a life with no filter

       C
Making boring people famous
Let's pretend they're fascinating
           Dm
Let's tell little girls that pretty girls are better

        Em
Or that pigment or religion really matters
[Pre-Chorus]
              Am
We're in some trouble

                 C
Mr. Maker, don't turn away from your screen

             Dm                                                 Em
At least the bubble that we've created could make for some good TV
[Chorus]
Dm
Oh, Mr. Man Upstairs

F                          C
I know you're tuning in up there, way up there

          Em
Would you care to answer my question?

Dm
Oh, the land of poor taste

F                                   C
The spectacle of cut and paste that we've made

               G                                 Am*
Would you say, please say it was worth the seven days
[Verse 2]
        Am
Does he hang his head at all the greed that we possess?

       C
As the anti-social media perpetuates the mess

      Dm
Maybe it's a test, maybe he's upset by the loose ends

                                 Em
Stressed like the rest of us, it happens to the best of us

Am
God, or is it Mr. G to me?

  C
I hope that through the static, you'll show us the clarity

            Dm
'Cause it's hard to find the silver lining in the bittersweet

       Em
Wonder if you're praying for us 'fore you go to sleep

                      Am
Do you sleep in peace?
[Pre-Chorus]
                     Am
'Cause we're in some trouble

                     C
Mr. Maker, but don't turn away from your screen

             Dm                                               Em
At least the bubble that we've created has made for damn good TV
[Chorus]
Dm
Oh, Mr. Man Upstairs

F                          C
I know you're tuning in up there, way up there

          Em
Would you care to answer my question?

Dm
Oh, the land of poor taste

F                                   C
The spectacle of cut and paste that we've made

               G
Would you say, please say it was worth the seven days
[Bridge]
Dm                                         F
Don't touch the remote, we'll be back in a moment

                                 Em
We are not hopeless, we are just coping

                                    Am
The mayhem is rolling, but it ain't showbiz

          C                Dm
Reality's potent, chaotic, I know it

                             F
But we're growing, have some hope in us

G
And were we worth all the time you gave up?
[Chorus]
Dm*
Oh, Mr. Man Upstairs

F*                         C*
I know you're tuning in up there, way up there

          Em*
Would you care to answer my question?

Dm
Oh, the land of poor taste

F                                   C
The spectacle of cut and paste that we've made

               G                                 Am
Would you say, please say it was worth the seven days

C     G   Em
Yeah, oh, oh
Am C G Em Am C G Am
