          A
When it's up to you

   E6            D6        A
To figure what's right and wrong

     E6      D6       A
It's someone else's parade

    E           D       A        E6   D6
And yours is an unhappy song
[Verse]
                 A
When it hurts so bad

        E6            D6       A
And you feel that you can't go on

E6            D6     A
Each day goes by too fast

        E          D       A
And the nights are so very long
[Chorus]
                E
You'll find out true

     D              Bm
What mother said to you

              A        D            E
That tears of God will show you the way

          | A | E6 D6 | A | E6 D6 |
The way to turn
[Verse]
          A
When your only escape

     E6    D6     A
Is a cheap nickel wine

        E6        D6           A
And the peace you need in your heart

      E    D       A       E6   D6
Is so very hard to find
[Verse]
       A
It's a stubborn life we lead

    E6            D6    A
And there's never no    rest

E6            D6            A/C#
Trouble's out there looking for you

     E        D        A
Even when you try your best
[Chorus]
                E
You'll find out true

     D              Bm
What mother said to you

             A        D            E
The tears of God will show you the way
[Middle 8]
           D7
The way to turn

              A7
Hide not your head

           D7
The way to turn

                  A7
Hear what he once said

                   D7
He'll show you the way

               A                 D
For there is a world for you and me

          G              E
Where the blind too can see

                    | A | E6 D6 | A | E6 D6 |
Through the tears of God
[Verse]
    A
The son of the maker said

E6         D6       A
This is my cross to bear

E6   D6         A
Taking off of our shoulders

          E  D           A
Something we should have shared
[Chorus] (+ coda)
                E
You'll find out true

     D              Bm
What mother said to you

              A        D            E
That tears of God will show you the way

          | A | E6 D6 | A
