INTRO:

E	F#m	E	F#m	G#m	F#m	G#m	A

E
I came home from school on Tuesday
F#m
To find my mother gone
E
Why she left I�ll never know
F#m
It seemed like they got along
G#m				  F#m
But one of these days I�d like to know
G#m				A
Just where it all went wrong
E
A woman torn to tears asks
F#m
Who the real criminals are
		E
Or when they told �er her husband died
			F#m
Fighting in another country�s drug wars
		E
She said it isn�t the kids on the streets without a dream
F#m
Shooting up the dealer�s smack
		E
It�s them a red-tape politicians
		  F#m
Digging on the drug lords kick-backs
G#m				F#m
Isn�t it funny what power and money
G#m				A
Can do to the soul of a man?
				   E
And give me something to believe in
		F#m
If there�s a lord above
				E
I give me something to believe in
F#m
If there�s a lord above
E
He got a second job at night now
F#m
Just to help pay the bills
E
And there he worked for the rest of his life
	 F#m
Cuz his wife had taken him in
	 E
Now he lives on a bottle of courage


F#m
He buys at the liquor store
E
He did his family real good
	 F#m
Till he couldn�t do it anymore
G#m			F#m
Whatever he found, why he broke down
G#m			A
No one�s really sure
					E
Just needed something to believe in
		F#m
If there�s a lord above
				   E
He needed something to believe in
	F#m
Oh lord arise
		  G#m				 F#m
The tracks of society�s racial on the old man�s face
G#m				  A
His eyes blood red lay to waste

	    E
Well the mirror tells a different story
	   F#m
Than the one that�s playin� in my mind
	E
Every time I swear I�m lookin� younger
	   F#m
The more lines that I find
	    E
I guess I learned to trade youth for wisdom
   F#m
And lust in for romance
E
It�s all written in the stages and phases
  F#m
Of life�s little dance
	    G#m			F#m
And when I wanna bitch about growin� old
G#m					   A
I think of how many never had a chance
					E
It gives me something to believe in
	F#m		E	F#m	E	F#m
Oh lord arise (x4)
G#m			  F#m
Sometimes I wish I didn�t know now
G#m			   A		E	F#m	G#m	A
Things I didn�t know then
					E
And give me something to believe in
