          A
When it's up to you
   E6/A          D6/A      A
To figure what's right and wrong
     E6/A    D6/A     A
It's someone else's parade
    E6          D6      A        E6/A   D6/A
And yours is an unhappy song

                 A
When it hurts so bad
        E6/A          D6/A     A
And you feel that you can't go on
E6/A          D6/A   A
Each day goes by too fast
        E6         D6      A
And the nights are so very long

                E
You'll find out true
     D              Bm
What mother said to you
              A        D            E
That tears of God will show you the way
          | A | E6/A D6/A | A | E6/A D6/A |
The way to turn

          A
When your only escape
     E6/A  D6/A   A
Is a cheap nickel wine
        E6/A      D6/A         A
And the peace you need in your heart
      E6   D6      A       E6/A   D6/A
Is so very hard to find

       A
It's a stubborn life we lead
    E6/A          D6/A  A
And there's never no    rest
E6/A          D6/A          A/C#
Trouble's out there looking for you
     E6       D6       A
Even when you try your best

                E
You'll find out true
     D              Bm
What mother said to you
             A        D            E
The tears of God will show you the way
           D7
The way to turn
              A7
Hide not your head
           D7
The way to turn
                  A7
Hear what he once said
                   D7
He'll show you the way
               A/E               D/E
For there is a world for you and me
          G/E           *E
Where the blind too can see
                    | A | E6/A D6/A | A | E6/A D6/A |
Through the tears of God

    A
The son of the maker said
E6/A       D6/A     A
This is my cross to bear
E6/A   D6/A       A
Taking off of our shoulders
          E6 D6          A
Something we should have shared

                E
You'll find out true
     D              Bm
What mother said to you
              A        D            E
That tears of God will show you the way
          | A | E6 D6 | A 
The way to turn
