C F

Oh my God, can I complain?

C G

You take away my firm belief and graft my soul upon Your grief.

C F

Weddings, boats, and alibis,

C G

All drift away, and a mother cries...

No Guitar

Liars and fools, sons and failures, thieves will always say…

C G C F

Lost and found, ailing wanderers, healers always say…

C G C F

Whores and angels, men with problems, leavers always say…

C G C F

Broken hearted, separated, orphans always say…

C G C F

War creators, racial haters, preachers always say…

C G C F

Distant fathers, fallen warriors, givers always say…

C G C F

Pilgrim saints, lonely widows, users always say…

C G C F

Fearful mothers, watchful doubters, Saviors always say…

C

Sometimes I can not forgive

G

and these days mercy cuts so deep,

C F

If the world was how it should, maybe I could get some sleep.

C G

While I lay, I'd dream we're better, scales were gone and faces

lighter,

C F

When we wake we hate our brother, we still move to hurt each other,

C G

Sometimes I can close my eyes and all the fear the keeps me silent,

C F

Falls below my heavy breathing, what makes me so badly bent?

C G

We all have a chance to murder, we all have the need for wonder.

C F

We still want to be reminded that the pain is worth the plunder.

C G

Sometimes when I lose my grip, I wonder what to make of heaven,

C F

All the times I thought to reach up, all the times I had to give up.

C G

Babies underneath their beds, in hospitals that cannot treat them.

C F

All the wounds that money causes, all the comforts of cathedrals,

C G

All the cries of thirsty children, this is our inheritance,

C F

All the rage of watching mothers, this is our greatest offense

C G C F

Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God.
