Verse 1
(G major) If (C major) (E minor) (C major) (E minor) (C major) (G major)
this is redemption,
why (Csus2) do I (G major) bother at all
There's (E minor) nothing to mention,
(C major) and nothing (G major) has changed (C major)
Still I'd rather be (D major) working (Dsus4) at something, (D major)
(E minor) than praying for the rain (C major)
So I wander on, (D major) till someone else is (G major) saved
Verse 2
I (G major) moved to the coast,
un (Csus2) der a (G major) mountain
Swam (E minor) in the ocean, (C major) slept on (G major) my own (C major)
At dawn I (D major) would watch the sun (E minor) cut
ribbons through the bay (C major)
I'd remember all (D major) the things (Dsus4)
my (G major) mother wrote

Verse 3
That we don't (E minor) eat until your
father's (C major) (G major) at the table
We don't (E minor) drink until the dev (C major)
il's turned (G major) to dust
Never (E minor) once has any (C major) man I've
(Csus2) met (C major) been (G major) (D major) able to (E minor) love
So (C major) if I were you,
I'd (D major) have a little (G major) trust
(C major) (G major) (C major)
Verse 4
(G major) Two thousand years,
I've been (C major) in that (G major) water
(C major) Two (E minor) thousand years,
(C major) sunk like a (G major) stone (C major)
Desper (Csus2) ately (D major) reaching for nets
That the (E minor) fishermen have thrown (C major)
Trying to find, (D major) a little bit of hope
(G major) (C major)
Verse 5
(G major) Me I was holding,
all of my secrets soft and hid
(E minor) Pages were folded,
(C major) then there was nothing at (G major) all (C major)
So if in the (D major) future I might
(E minor) need myself a savior
I'll (C major) remember what was
(D major) written on that (G major) wall
Verse 6
That we don't (E minor) eat until your
father's (C major) at the table (G major)
We don't (E minor) drink until the
devil's (C major) turned to (G major) dust
Never (E minor) once has any (C major) man I've
met been (G major) (D major) able to (E minor) love
So (C major) if I were you,
I'd (D major) have a little (G major) trust
Verse 7
(D minor)
Am I (D major) an honest man and true (E minor)
Have I been good to you at all (D minor)
Oh I'm so tired of (D major) playing these (A minor) games
We'd just be running down
The same (G major) old lines, the same old stories of
(F major) Breathless (D minor) trains and,
worn down (F major) glories (G major)
(A minor) Houses burning,
worlds that turn (G major) on their own
Verse 8
(G major)
So we don't (E minor) eat until your
father's (C major) at (A minor) the table (G major)
We don't (E minor) drink until the dev (C major)
il's turned to (G major) dust
(D major) Nev (E minor) er once has any man (C major) I've
met been (G major) able (D major) to (E minor) love
So if (C major) I were you my friend,
(D major) I'd learn to have just a little bit of (G major) trust
