Em
walking down the street … in search of your own soul
G
taking chances … on who you get to know
C Em
you talk about the Light – but you know – I just can’t see it in your eyes
Em
you send your message … by what you do and say
G
you think we’re fooled by these… religious games you play?
C
No one is impressed… now that you feel …
Em
You’ve got God on you’re side

CHORUS:
G
father wisdom … you’re welcome in here
C
it’s just me … wishing you were near
D Em
send your spirit … out well has run dry (RUN DRY, RUN DRY)
G
father mercy … teach us how to love
C
for all the empty ones … who feel like giving up
D Em – Em
so we we’ll know … Jesus is alive

Em
speaking in tongues … in the atmosphere of light
G
are all things connected … in between wrong & right?
C
You’ve been singing gypsy songs …
Em
I’ve been lighting candles in the night
Em
you flirt with soul … in the cafes where you eat
G
I’m trying to connect/one x one/with the people on the street
C
with nothing to win – nothing to lose
Em
some of us just hide

REPEAT CHORUS

Em
spiritual poets … play on cheap guitars
G
are we too slow to catch on to the prophets in the bars?
C Em
following God’s footprints … till the sand hits the tide
Em
street corner preachers … carry out their plans
G
with venom in their mouth & a bible in their hands
C Em
yelling about heaven & hell – heaven and hell … no love in their eyes

REPEAT CHORUS
