G Dsus Em D
In a motel room, with the Bible out
Em
Combing scriptures for answers about
D
What's happening now
G Dsus Em
'Cause I cant believe my eyes
D
And I just don't trust my ears
Em
But I've heard a man can always come find
D
Some solace here
(Continue this pattern through out the whole song)
And Lord, I know that we dont talk
Often at all anymore
But desperate folks do desperate things
So I'm stapling this note to your door
Please, turn the ship around
And lock the course in place
And keep the train tracks nailed to the ground
Or pull the emergency break
'Cause I've lost my faith in man
Just like I once lost faith in you
And I've been covering all kinds of ground
Thinking hard 'bout what else i could lose
And I know how I look
To come crawling back
Acting like you owe me proof
But this is bigger than me
I think it's bigger than you too
(Palm Mute)
So if this gets to you
Yeah if you ever come home
Just know I won't be awaiting the postman
I will not be glued to my phone
I'll know a change has come
I'll know that you exist
When all our bombs stop exploding
And when all of those landmines are stripped
And we stop blowin' up strangers' houses
And making orphans of innocent kids
And people stop thinking the world's theirs for the taking
'Cause your world once told them it is
'Til then, i'm gonna shake my head
I'm gonne bite my tongue
When people tell me, 'Have faith and be patient,
We're waiting for God to show up.'
Yeah 'til then, it's one more skeptical song
And i'll be glad as hell
If you come and prove me wrong

If you come and prove me wrong
In a motel room, with the Bible out
Combing scriptures for answers about
What's happening now
'Cause I can't believe my eyes
And I just don't trust my ears
But I've heard a man can always come find
Some solace here
And Lord, I know that we don't talk
Often at all anymore

And keep the train tracks nailed to the ground

Just like I once lost faith in you
And I've been covering all kinds of ground
