p p p i p m p i[Verse]
D D Well I'm digging around in the sand D D Lost in the wilderness just looking for a hand Bm11 Bm11 I've got seed that I must sow D D Great mystery up in the sky D D Lookin' down upon me with your millions of eyes Bm11 Bm11 D D Come on, there are things I need to know
[Pre-Chorus]
Gadd9 Gadd9 'Cause I've danced with religion I tried to make friends Esus2 Esus2 F#m But those seven days I could not make amends with and Gadd9 Gadd9 Esus2 Esus2 Watched the kingdoms crumble as they grow
[Chorus] (these 5 chords under here are fast and timed with the spelling of the words)
D Esus2 F#m Asus6/9 F#m Well I'm just looking for some faith
D11/G Asus6-9/B A6
To get me through tomorrow with just a little grace
D Esus2 F#m Asus6/9 F#m In this ole crazy world we live D11/G Asus6-9/B A6 D D Sometimes it's like a life raft and other times leaks like a sieve, don't ask me why
[Verse] (In this verse you can use percussion on the guitar body as in some John Butler's lives)
D D I brought the picks and I got the spades D D I got some dynamite I even brought grenades, come on Bm11 Bm11 Let's dig ourselves into a great big hole D D Dig deep enough, maybe we'll reach Beijing, D D when we arrive I'll hit the streets, and I'll ask for the King Bm11 Bm11 Taking care of business on the south side, D D or so I've been told
[Pre-Chorus]
Gadd9 Gadd9 And when I see him I'll say, «Hey you!» Esus2 Esus2 F#m «What happened to your blue Suede Shoes?, and uh Gadd9 Gadd9 Esus2 Esus2 Can you tell me where I hid all my gold?»
[Chorus]
D Esus2 F#m Asus6/9 F#m 'Cause I'm just looking for some faith
D11/G Asus6/9 A6
To get me through tomorrow with just a little grace
D Esus2 F#m Asus6/9 F#m In this ole crazy world we live
D11/G Asus6/9 A6
Sometimes it's like a life raft and other times leaks like a sieve
D Esus2 F#m Asus6/9 F#m And when it all comes crumbling down
D11/G Asus6/9 A6
Help me drop an anchor, to keep my roots there on the ground
D D
[Bridge]
D D Bm11 Bm11 Peace of mind is all I need to unwind all these D D Tangled knots inside Bm11 Bm11 I'm on my knees I'm crying and a Gadd9 Gadd9 Esus2 Esus2 Tell me I'm not alone D D Alone
[Verse]
D D Well I've gone within and I've gone without D D I know my greatest sins are all of my doubts Bm11 Bm11 D D And all the fear that corrodes my soul D D And I do know I'm a long time dead D D And my papa said you make your bed Bm11 Bm11 D D And leave all behind unbroken as you roam
[Chorus]
D Esus2 F#m Asus6/9 F#m And then you'll find your faith
D11/G Asus6/9 A6
To get you through tomorrow, with just a little grace
D Esus2 F#m Asus6/9 F#m In this ole crazy world we live
D11/G Asus6/9 A6
Sometimes it's like a life raft and other times leaks like a sieve
D Esus2 F#m Asus6/9 F#m And when it all comes crumbling down
D11/G Asus6/9 A6
Help me drop an anchor, to keep my roots there on the ground
D Esus2 F#m Asus6/9 F#m In this ole crazy world we live
D11/G Asus6/9 A6
Sometimes it's like a life raft and other times leaks like a sieve
