Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb

C Am G F G
 
C
I don't believe what you're saying
F                 C
I don't believe a word
C         G/B    Am             G
You never did anything that was true
    F                       G
And hate will be your final work
 
C
I wouldn't dance at your party
    F                 C
No, I wouldn't risk a dance
        C
For the rest of my time
       F
I will keep it mind
       G
I will look at your life and will find:
            F            Dm
When you're down on your knees
G                             C
That's when you're closest to heaven
 
Am G F G
 
C
I don't believe when you're smiling
F                       C
I don't believe in your mask
C          G/B    Am              G
You hardly say anything you don't use
         F                     G
All your life is a lie at it's best
 
C
Your love means never another
         F                     C
Is there anything left that is true?
         C
You will end all alone
        F
With no peace of your own
           G
'Cause the god of love you've never known!
            F            Dm
When you're down on your knees
G                             C
That's when you're closest to heaven
 
        F
I guess you'll never get it
       G                    Am
You'll never regret all the broken hearts
 
You've left behind
           F
If there's one thing that you'll never find
         G
Peace of mind
 
C F C C G/B Am G F C
 
E                    F
There's always one a lonely street
G                      C
Walking his way to the sun
E
There's always one
               F
That takes the whole world's greed
G                        C
All on his back and it's done
F                          G
And ever since the world's turning
                 Am
There's always a fool that is leading the blind
           F
If there's one thing that you'll never find
         G
Peace of mind
 
     C
Your thoughts are so low it's a shame
               F                    C
That's why for you everyone else is low
C          G/B              Am             G
People see life through the glass in their hearts
       F                        G
So the fruits of your doings do show
 
   C
In this world it all could mean maybe
           F                         C
But on the other side you'll hear it loud
       C
I know time clears the clouds
        F
One day you won't walk proud
        G
It will all be revealed there's no doubt
                   F            Dm
'Cause when you're down on your knees
G                             C
That's when you're closest to heaven
 
 
                   F            Dm
'Cause when you're down on your knees
G                             C
That's when you're closest to heaven
 
                   F            Dm
'Cause when you're down on your knees
G                             C
That's when you're closest to heaven
