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


A5      A5   G5     G5        D5       D5       D5  D5
You could say I lost my faith in science and progress
A5      A5              G5       G5           D5  D5  D5  D5
You could say I lost my belief in the holy church
A5      A5   G5     G5                 D5  D5  D5  D5
You could say I lost my sense of direction
A5  A5       F#5          F#5
You could say all of this and worse but


E5  E5  F#5  F#5      G5  G5
If I ever lose my faith in you
E5       E5      F#5  F#5      G5   A5 A/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


G5  E5  G5  E5  G5  E5  G5  E5


F#5        C#5            E/nr  B5    B5    C#5  F#5
I could be lost inside their lies without a trace
          C#5  D/nr  F#5
But every time I close my eyes I see your face


A5    A5    G5            G5   D5  D5  D5  D5  D5
I never saw no miracle of science
A5    A5           G5          G5      D5  D5  D5  D5  D5
That didn't go from a blessing to a curse
A5    A5    G5            G5   D5  D5  D5  D5  D5
I never saw no military solution
A5 A5            F#5              F#5
That didn't always end up as something worse but


E5   E5        D5
Let me say this first


B5  B5  C#5  C#5      D5
If I ever lose my faith in you
           D5
If I ever lose my faith in you
B5       B5      C#5  C#5   D5
There'd be nothing left for me to do
                    D5
There'd be nothing left for me to do


E5  E5  F#5  F#5
If I ever lose my faith
G5          G5
If I ever lose my faith
E5  E5  F#5  F#5
If I ever lose my faith
G5         A5 A/11  A5 A/11
If I ever lose my faith              in you


G5  E5
