Mr. Trouble come walkin' this way
Bb (x1333x@1)Year gone by feels like one long day but I'm alive
				         Eb (x43121@3)And I'm feelin' all right
	       Bb (x1333x@1)Well I run that hard road outta heartbreak city
Bb (x1333x@1)Built a roadside carnival out of hurt and self-pity, it was all wrong
						            Eb (x43121@3)Well now I'm moving on
             Bb (x1333x@1)
Ain't no church bells ringing
         Ab (xx1114@1)Ain't no flags unfurled
Eb (x43121@3)             Bb (x1333x@1)It's just me and you and the love we're bringing
          Ab (xx1114@1)               		Eb (x43121@3)Into the real world
	 Bb (x1333x@1)Into the real world

(rest of song continues same way until otherwise noted)

I built a shrine in my heart, iasn't pretty to see
Made out of fool's gold memory and tears cried
Now I'm headin' over the rise
I'm searchin' for one clear moment of love and truth
I still got a little faith but what I need is some proof tonight
I'm lookin' for it in your eyes

Ain't no church bells ringing
Ain't no flags unfurled
Just me and you and the faith we're bringing into the real world
Into the real world

Ab  Bb

Well tonight I just wanna shout
     Eb (x43121@3)           Ab (xx1114@1)I feel my soul waist deep and sinking into this black river of doubt
          Eb (x43121@3)                Ab (xx1114@1)      Bb (x1333x@1)I just wanna rise and walk along the riverside
Eb (x43121@3)   Ab (xx1114@1)           Eb (x43121@3)           Ab (xx1114@1)And when the morning comes baby I don't wanna hide
	     Bb (x1333x@1)		Ab (xx1114@1)I'll stand right at your side with my arms open wide
           Eb (x43121@3)		        Bb (x1333x@1)(killer guitar solo here)

Well tonight I just wanna shout
I feel my soul waist deep and sinking into this black river of doubt
I just wanna rise and walk along the riverside
'Til the morning comes
I'll stand right by your side


I wanna find some answers I wanna ask for some help
I'm tired of running scared baby let's get our bags packed
We'll take it here to hell and heaven and back
And if love is hopeless, hopeless at best
Come on put on your party dress, it's ours tonight
And we're goin' with the tumblin' dice

Ain't no church bells ringing
Ain't no flags unfurled
It's just me and you and the hope we're bringing into the real world
Well into the real world
Oh into the real world
