This is a pretty close rendition. The key to this song is letting the E string ring out through the entire verse ... just as it does on the album. I don't know what to call this chord, so I call it A/F#m Play A/F#m like so: (044200) Play Abm/E like so: (066400) Play A/E like so: (077600) E A/F#m Well I see him on the TV preaching 'bout the promised land E A/F#m He tells me to believe in Jesus steals the money from my hand E A/F#m Abm/E A/E Some say he was a good man lord I think he sinned E A/F#m Twenty two years of mental tears cries a suicidal Vietnam vet E Who fought a losing war on a foreign shore A/F#m to find his country didn't want him back E Their bullets took his best friend in Saigon A/F#m Our lawyers took his wife and kids no regrets E A/F#m In a time I don't remember in a war he can't forget E A/F#m Abm/E He cried "Forgive me for what I've done there cause I never meant the A/E things I did ... E And give me something to believe in Asus2 If there's a lord above E Asus2 Give me something to believe in, Oh lord arise E A/F#m My best friend died a lonely man in some Palm Springs motel room E A/F#m I got the call last Christmas Eve and they told me the news E A/F#m I tried all night not to break down and cry as the tears rolled down my face E A/F#m I felt so cold and empty like a lost soul out of place E A/F#m Abm/E A/E And mirror mirror on the wall sees a smile than fades again E And give me something to believe in Asus2 If there's a lord above E Asus2 Give me something to believe in, Oh lord arise E A/F#m Abm/E A/E Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now the things I didn't know then Solo: B(barchord)-A(Barchord)[x2] E-Asus2[x2] E-A/F#m-Abm/E-A/E E I drive by the homeless sleeping on the cold dark street A/F#m like bodies in an open grave E A/F#m Underneath the broken old neon sign that used to read "Jesus Saves" E A/F#m A mile away live the rich folks and I see how they livin' it up E A/F#m While the poor they eat from hand to mouth the rich drink from a golden cup E A/F#m Abm/E A/E And it just makes me wonder why so many lose and so few win E Now give me something to believe in Asus2 If there's a lord above E Asus2 Give me something to believe in, Oh lord arise E A/F#m Abm/E A/E Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now the things I didn't know then E Oh give me something to believe in.
