INTRO: D

Well now on a summer night in a dusky room

D G

Come a little piece of the Lord's undying light

D

Crying like he swallowed the fiery moon

A G

In his mother's arms it was all the beauty I could take

D G

Like the missing words to some prayer that I could never make

D A

In a world so hard and dirty so fouled and confused

G D

Searching for a little bit of God's mercy

G A

I found living proof

G D G D

I put my heart and soul I put 'em hight upon a shelf

Right next to the faith the faith that I'd lost in myself

I went down into the desert city

Just tryin' so hard to shed my skin

I crawled deep into some kind of darkness

Lookin' to burn out every trace of who I'd been

You do some sad sad things baby

When it's your you 're tryin' to lose

You do some sad and hurtfull things

I've seen living proof

You shot through my anger and rage

A

To show me my prison was just an open cage

Em

There were no keys no guards

A

Just one frightened man and some old shadows for bars

G A D G D

Well now all that's sure on the boulevard

Is that life is just a house of cards

As fragile as each and every breath

Of this boy sleepin' in our bed

Tonight let's lie beneath the eaves

Just a close band of happy thieves

And when that train comes we'll get on board

And steal what we can from the treasures treasures of the Lord

It's been along long drought baby

Tonight the rain's pourin' down on our roof

Looking for a little bit of God's mercy

I found living proof Oh, living proof I found living proof Yeah living proof

G D G D
