capo 7 C/G If this is redemption, why do I bother at all Em C C/G There's nothing to mention, and nothing has changed C D Em Still I'd rather be working at something, than praying for the rain C D C/G So I wander on, till someone else is saved C/G I moved to the coast, under a mountain Em C C/G Swam in the ocean, slept on my own C D Em At dawn I would watch the sun cut ribbons through the bay C D C/G I'd remember all the things my mother wrote Em C C/G That we don't eat until your father's at the table Em C C/G We don't drink until the devil's turned to dust Em C D Em Never once has any man I've met been able to love C D C/G So if I were you, I'd have a little trust C/G Two thousand years, I've been in that water Em C C/G Two thousand years, sunk like a stone C D Desperately reaching for nets Em That the fisherman have thrown C D C/G Trying to find, a little bit of hope C/G Me I was holding, all of my secrets soft and hid Em C C/G Pages were folded, then there was nothing at all C D Em So if in the future I might need myself a savior C D C/G I'll remember what was written on that wall Em C C/G So we don't eat until your father's at the table Em C C/G We don't drink until the devil's turned to dust Em C D Em Never once has any man I've met been able to love C D C/G So if I were you, I'd have a little trust Am Em Am I an honest man and true Em Am Have i been good to you at all Am Em Oh I'm so tired of playing these games Em We'd just be running down G The same old lines, the same old stories of C Breathless trains and, worn down glories Am C/G Houses burning, worlds that turn on their own Em C C/G So we don't eat until your father's at the table Em C C/G We don't drink until the devil's turned to dust Em C D Em Never once has any man I've met been able to love C D C/G So if I were you my friend, I'd learn to have just a little bit of trust
