[Verse 1]
Eb
Well I see him on the TV
Ab/Eb
Preachin' 'bout the promised lands
Eb
He tells me to believe in Jesus
Ab/Eb
And steals the money from my hands
Eb Ab/Eb
Some say he was a good man
Eb Ab/Eb
But Lord I think he sinned, yeah
[Verse 2]
Eb
Twentytwo years of mental tears
Ab/Eb
Cries a suicidal Vietnam vet
Eb
Who fought a losing war on a foreign shor
Ab/Eb
To find his country didn't want him back
Eb
Their bullets took his best friends in Saigon
Ab/Eb
Our lawyers took his wife, his kids,
no regrets
Eb
In a time I don't remember
Ab/Eb
In a war he can't forget
[Bridge]
Eb Fm
He cried "Forgive me for what I've done there
Gm Ab
'Cause I never meant the things I did"
Eb
And give me somethin' to believe in
[Chorus]
Ab/Eb
If there's a Lord above
Eb
And give me somethin' to believe in
Ab/Eb
Oh, Lord arise
[Verse 3]
Eb
My best friend died a lonely man
Ab/Eb
In some Palm Springs hotel room
Eb
I got the call last Christmas Eve
Ab/Eb
And they told me the news
Eb
I tried all night not to break down and cry
Ab/Eb
As the tears rolled down my face
Eb
I felt so cold and empty
Ab/Eb
Like a lost soul out of place
[Bridge]
Eb Fm
And the mirror, mirror on the wall
Gm Ab
Sees my smile, it fades again
Eb
And give me somethin' to believe in
[Chorus]
Ab/Eb
If there's a Lord above
Eb
And give me somethin' to believe in,
yeah
Ab/Eb
Oh, Lord arise
[Bridge]
Eb Fm
Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now
Gm Ab
The things I didn't know then
Road, you gotta take me home
[Solo]

[Verse 4]
Eb
I drive by the homeless sleepin' on a cold dark street
Ab/Eb
Like bodies in an open grave
Eb
Underneath the broken old neon sign
Ab/Eb
That used to read "Jesus Saves"
Eb
A mile away live the rich folk
Ab/Eb
And I see how they're living it up
Eb
While the poor,
they eat from hand to mouth
Ab/Eb
The rich drinkin' from a golden cup
[Bridge]
Eb Fm
And it just makes me wonder
Gm Ab
Why so many lose and so few win, hah
Eb
And give me somethin' to believe in
[Chorus]
Ab/Eb Eb
And give me somethin' to believe in
Ab/Eb
If there's a Lord above
Eb
And give me somethin' to believe in
Ab/Eb
Oh, Lord arise
Eb
And give me somethin' to believe in
Ab/Eb
Oh, Lord arise
Eb
And give me somethin' to believe in
Ab/Eb
Oh, Lord arise
