[Verses are a mixture of picking and strumming the chords.
[Verse One]
Am C G Fmaj7 I don't know where we've been Am C G Fmaj7 Could you tell me where we are again? Am C G Fmaj7 And Jesus is my only friend Am C G Fmaj7 No one else knows who I am
[Verse Two]
Am C G Fmaj7 I know I'll never make it on the cross Am C G Fmaj7 Spent my days looking for what my daddy lost Am C G Fmaj7 He was too proud to have a boss Am C G Fmaj7 Sold himself out then he couldn't afford the cost
[Verse Three]
Am C G Fmaj7 No one knows how he felt Am C G Fmaj7 Hung himself in the country jail Am C G Fmaj7 There were those who said he would burn in hell Am C G Fmaj7 I don't think they knew him very well
[Chorus]
Dm Angel of love C G Shine a light on us Dm I was born to be C G Redemption's son Dm Angel of love C G Shine a light on us Dm I was born to be C G Redemption's son Em G Em Forgive us for what we've done, Lord Em G Forgive us for what we've do-o-o-o-ne Am C G Fmaj7 Uhhh
[Verse 4]
Am C G Fmaj7 I don't know were we are Am C G Fmaj7 Fearful eyes don't see very far Am C G Fmaj7 Drivin' in my daddy's car Am C G Fmaj7 Ashtray full of his cigars Am C G Fmaj7 Is it real what I see? Am C G Fmaj7 His ghost ridin' next to me Am C G Fmaj7 'Till he's gone I won't be free Am C G Fmaj7 From the burden of his misery
[Verse 5]
Am C G Fmaj7 I know I'll never make it on the cross Am C G Fmaj7 Spent my days looking for what my daddy lost Am C G Fmaj7 He was too proud to have a boss Am C G Fmaj7 Sold himself out then he couldn't afford the cost
[Verse 6]
Am C G Fmaj7 I don't know the neighbourhood Am C G Fmaj7 Mostly he was misunderstood Am C G Fmaj7 In his heart the bad beat the good Am C G Fmaj7 Used to be a time I'd have killed him if I could
[Chorus]
Dm Angel of love C G Shine a light on us Dm I was born to be C G Redemption's son Dm Angel of love C G Shine a light on us Dm I was born to be C G Em Redemption's son, Lord G Em Forgive us for what we've done, Lord
[Outro]
Am C G Fmaj7 Uhhh
