Transcription by Luis Ferreira



Intro:  F9/nr  D#7-5/nr  D4  Cmin6/nr


A9      A   G9     G        D9       D       D9  D
You could say I lost my faith in science and progress
A9      A              G9       G           D9  D  D9  D
You could say I lost my belief in the holy church
A9      A   G9     G                 D9  D  D9  D
You could say I lost my sense of direction
A9  A       F#74          F#m7
You could say all of this and worse but


E4  E  F#74  F#7      G  G/A
If I ever lose my faith in you
E4       E      F#74  F#7      G6   A74 A7/11
There'd be nothing left for me to do


Some would say I was a lost man in a lost world
You could say I lost my faith in the people on TV
You could say I'd lost my belief in our politicians
They all seemed like game show hosts to me

If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do


G6  Em  G6  Em  G6  Em  G6  Em


F#m        C#4            E9/nr  B4    B4    C#4  F#
I could be lost inside their lies without a trace
          C#4  D7-5/nr  F#m9
But every time I close my eyes I see your face


A9    A    G            G9   D4  D  D4  D  D9
I never saw no miracle of science
A9    A           G          G9      D4  D  D4  D  D9
That didn't go from a blessing to a curse
A9    A    G            G9   D4  D  D4  D  D9
I never saw no military solution
A9 A            F#74              F#m7
That didn't always end up as something worse but


E4   E        D6
Let me say this first


B4  B  C#74  C#7      D
If I ever lose my faith in you
           D/E
If I ever lose my faith in you
B4       B      C#74  C#7   D
There'd be nothing left for me to do
                    D/E
There'd be nothing left for me to do


E4  E  F#74  F#7
If I ever lose my faith
G          G/A
If I ever lose my faith
E4  E  F#74  F#7
If I ever lose my faith
G6         A74 A7/11  A74 A7/11
If I ever lose my faith              in you


G6  Em
