Capo 2
Tone [Em]
[C]God, give me a sign right [Em]now before my time runs [D]out
Because my faith and hope are ever-fadin'
[C]Round up the chi[Em]ldren, take them to the [D]bank
Teach them how to pray, I was one of them [C]too
Round up the [Em]children, time to set 'em [D]straight
Teach them how to hate in the name of [C]you
Religion's bell[Em]igerent, it's making us [D]sicker as
I start to resent the very God I [C]love
'Cause religion's e[Em]pitome is making a [D]mess of me
Is the person I am just not enough?
[C]I don't wanna be some[Em]one who loses all their [D]faith
And that their family hates because they're changin'
[C]God, give me a sign right [Em]now before my time runs [D]out
Because my faith and hope are ever-fadin'
[C]Run to the [Em]steeple, tell us what to [D]say
Rules so we behave but don't question [C]it
Run to the [Em]steeple to wash away our [D]sins
But do it all again, where's your righteous[C]ness?
Religion's bell[Em]igerent, it's making us [D]sicker as
I start to resent the very God I [C]love
'Cause religion's e[Em]pitome is making a [D]mess of me
Is the person I am just not enough?
[C]I don't wanna be some[Em]one who loses all their [D]faith
And that their family hates because they're changin'
[C]God, give me a sign right [Em]now before my time runs [D]out
Because my faith and hope are ever-fadin'
[C]Lay down the [Em]law, watch the people [D]hurt
As the village burns, still you [C]lay down the law
Do it all in [Em]vain, in Jesus' [D]name You lay down the law
[C]I don't wanna be some[Em]one who loses all their [D]faith
And that their family hates because they're changin'
[C]God, give me a sign right [Em]now before my time runs [D]out
Because my faith and hope are ever-fadin'
[C]Oh-oh-oh, [Em]oh-oh-oh, [D]ooh-ooh I'm never changin'
