The Priest by Milow





                    The Priest 





capo 2nd
 
Am   G/B           C
I'm Peter van der Hold
Am   G/B      C
I'm 68 years old
Am  G/B        C       G/B     C
I doubt some questions have increased 
   G/B C        G/B     C
In 42 years of being a priest 
Am  G/B     C
I'm at the end of my life 
Am       G/B        C
I'm not sure if I'm gonna survive 
Am G/B  C           G/B    C
I often don't know what to say 
       G/B     C    G/B     C
When I talk to Him, when I pray 
In reply I receive
Only silence, no relieve
I've waited in vain for a little advice
from that great voice in ethereal skies
 
Once I was revolutionary
A devoted mercenary
A gifted student in God's hands
Now I'm old and sick of his demands
I tried to be honest and good
Did my job the best I could
But I always stayed that average man
Right in the spot where I began
During the grieve with which I've dealt
Spent three decades since I've felt
...                                                  F
The certainty I so adored 'bout the existence of the Lord
 
            C             G      F
I've seen enough, that's why I know
               C           G         F
God left this place, long long time ago
 
I'll give him to my perish
Things I don't have myself but cherish
And namely love and charity
Mostly purpose that's what sets you free
So I'm where the metaphores
Are not comforting anymore
I think I'm almost done with my search
Got old so fast even in my church
But feels as if I'm kept out
Some sort of secret about
The meaning of live sometimes
Can't fail to notice these are mediocre types
 
I've seen enough, that's why I know
God left this place, long long time ago
I've seen enough, that's why I know
God left this place, long long time ago
 
...and so on
