Notes: Strumming is just a solid downstroke pattern. Notes in parentheses may be played
For the most part, though, Brett leaves them out
(as I do in the video).
With Am, half the time Brett plays it as a standard barre chord and the other half he
it as I do.
I prefer using the thumb for the bass notes (reminiscent of John Mayer's style). During
F chord in the chorus Brett adds a little hammer-on with the pinky on the 4th string,
fret.
This transcription was taken from numerous videos, most specifically this one:
[Verse 1]
F Bb Beyond the rules of religion Dm Am the cloth of conviction Bb F Dm above all the competition Gm C where fact and fiction meet
[Verse 2]
F Bb There's no color lines, casts or classes Dm Am there's no fooling the masses Bb F Dm whatever faith you practice Gm C whatever you believe
[Chorus]
Dm Bb C Dm Oh, Heaven, Heaven Dm Bb C Dm What the hell is heaven? Bb C F Is there a home for the homeless Bb C F Is there hope for the hopeless
[Verse 3]
F Bb Throw away your misconceptions Dm Am there's no walls around heaven Bb F Dm there's no codes you gotta know to get in Gm C no minutemen or border patrol
[Verse 4]
F Bb You must lose your earthly possessions Dm Am leave behind your weapons Bb F Dm you can't buy your salvation Gm C and there is no pot of gold
[Chorus]
Dm Bb C Dm Oh, Heaven, Heaven Dm Bb C Dm What the hell is heaven? Bb C F Is there a home for the homeless Bb C F Is there hope for the hopeless
[Bridge]
Am Dm Heaven ain't got no prisons Gm Dm no government, no business Am Dm no banks or politicians Bb Am Gm no armies and no police
[Verse 5]
F Bb Castles and cathedrals crumble Dm Am pyramids and pipelines tumble Bb F Dm the failure keeps you humble Gm C and leads us closer to peace
[Chorus]
Dm Bb C Dm Oh, Heaven, Heaven Dm Bb C Dm What the hell is heaven? Bb C F Is there a home for the homeless Bb C F Is there hope for the hopeless
[Outro]
Bb C F Is there a home for the homeless Bb C F Bb C F Is there hope for the hopeless
