Intro: G C G Verse 1: G If this is redemption, why do I bother at all? Em 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 G So I wander on, till someone else is saved Verse 2 - same chords as Verse 1 -: I moved to the coast, under a mountain Swam in the ocean, slept on my own At dawn i would watch the sun, cut ribbons through the bay I'd remember all, the things my mother wrote Chorus: Em C G That we don't eat until your father's at the table Em C G And we don't drink until the devil's turned to dust Em C G D Em And never once has any man I've met been able to love C D G Gsus4 G So if I were you, I'd have a little trust Verse 3: Two thousand years, I've been in that water Two thousand years, sunk like a stone Desperately reaching for nets that the fishermen have thrown Trying to find a little bit of hope Verse 4: Me, I was holding, all of my secrets soft and hid Pages were folded; then there was nothing at all So if in the future I might, need myself a savior I'll remember what was written on that wall Chorus: Em C G That we don't eat until your father's at the table Em C G And we don't drink until the devil's turned to dust Em C G D Em And never once has any man I've met been able to love C D G Gsus4 G So if I were you, I'd have a little trust Bridge: Dm Em Am I an honest man and true?
