The Charging Sky

(início)

      C      G                F   C
If I run uphill I'm out of breath
            C        G          F             C
If I spend all of my money I've got no money left
            C         G         F       C
If I place all of my chips on only one bet
C    F  G
I'm all in
            C       G              F  C
And it's a surefire bet I'm gonna die
       C            G       F       C
So I'm taking up praying on Sunday nights
          C              G      F      C
And it's not that I believe in your almight
        C    F  G
But I might as well
      F   C      G
as insurance or bail
           C               G            F  C
Cause institution's like a big bright lie
        C               G           F          C
And it blinds you into fear and consuming and fight
                        C           G         F       C
And you've been in the desert underneath the charging sky
           C   F   G
It's just you and God
             F     C    G
But what if God's not there?
          F     C        G
But his name is on your dollar bill
        F   C      G
Which just became cab fare
         C                G             F             C
For the Evangelist, the Communist, the Lefts and the Rights
          C                 G               F             C
And the hypocrites and the Jesuits and the blacks and the whites
            C     F       G
It's in the belly of the beast
        F   C   G
In the Atlanta streets
           F C   G
Or up in Laurel Canyon
              F C   G
The verge of Middle East
               C            G        F   C
Still they're dying on the dark continent
           C                G        F     C
It's been happening long enough to mention it
        C            G                          F       C
Have I mentioned my parents are getting back together again
          C F  G
It's been 25 years
       F C      G
Of spreading infection
          F    C     G
Somehow we're not affected
        C       G           F  C
So my mom, she brushes her hair
        C          G       F           C
And my dad starts growing Bob Dylan's beard
        C             G        F         C
And I share with my friends a couple of beers
          C  F   G
In the Orlando streets
        F     C       G
In the belly of the beast...
