Tom: Em
G C G
Put my faith in a bootle of booze that sent me softly into the night
C D
I've put my faith into football teams that filled my guts with fire
B C Em A7
But I still find myself a-picking blind when the time comes up to choose
G D C D
So I'm taking a stab with this ol' shaky hand,
C D G
I'm puttin my faith in you.
[Verse 2]
G D G
Now I've wandered 'till my feet just seem to be on remote control
G
stuck between the stations with the static constellations,
C D
superstition just through my core
B C Em A7
And I looked into that black ol' night as if its duty was to point
G D C D
some other way than straight to hell
C D G
my soul not to annoint
[Bridge 1]
Bm B C G
so punch me fair square in the face and drag my bones outside
Bm B D C A7
Well I'm a living breathing example of a C-L-U-less guy
F D
So c'mon baby switch that light
[Verse 3]
G
Oh well all my heroes are drunk or dead
C D G
or sharing the ride with a laugh.
G
Reformed junkies and reborn flunkies
C D
you wouldn't trust with your wife.
B C Em A7
So tell me what chance now did I have, to have a goddam clue.
G D C D
but dust on off that kitchen table baby
G D G
I'm putting my faith in you.
[Bridge 2]
G
I've put my faith in so few things
C
It's funny how I got through.
G A7
But don't you let my words a-fall to the ground,
D C
I'm putting my faith in you-hoooooooo
C
ALL-RIGHT!!!!
[Verse 4]
G
I'm sick of sitting fences and punching defenseless,
D G
I need to make some sense of this mess
G
And the closest I got to revelations this year
D A7
was when I peeled off your summer dress
B C
So let's cut to the chase, it's a secular taste
Em A7
that's gonna get us through.
G D G D
so don't let my words come on and fall to the ground
C D B
I'm putting my faith in you,
G D G D
don't let my words come on and fall to the ground
C D G
I'm putting my faith in you.
