QUICKSAND JESUS
Skid Row
Tuning: Standard
VERSE 1
[Em]She caught the melting sky
[Em]It burned but still the winter [C]passes by and by
[Em]To the other side
[Em]A slow parade of wind
[Em]That blows through trees that wilted [C]with the season's children
CHORUS 1
[D]Are we saved by the [C]words of bastard [Em]saints?
[D]Do we live in [C]fear or faith?
[C]Tell me now who's beh[D]ind the ra[Em]in
VERSE 2
[Em]A maze of tangled grace
[Em]The symptoms of "for real" are [C]crumbling from embrace
[Em]But still we chase...
[Em]The shadows of belief
[Em]And new religion clouds our [C]visions of the roots
[Em]Of our souls
CHORUS 2
[D]Are we a-[C]shamed of our own [Em]fate
[D]Or play the fool [C]for our own sake?
[C]Tell me who's be[D]hind the rain[Em]
BRIDGE
[Em]What do we need?
[G]Where do we [Em]go?
[Em]Where do we [G]go when we don't [D]know?
[Em]Why should we [G]doubt the [C]virgin white of fallen snow
When [Em]faith's our shelter [D]from the col[Em]d?
SOLO
REPEAT BRIDGE
OUTRO
[C]Quicksand Jesus I'm so [D]far away without [Em]you (x 2)
[C]Quicksand Jesus I'm s[D]o far awaaaaay-ay[Em]-ay-ay (x2)
[C]Quicksand Jesus [D]I need you
[C]Quicksand Jesus [D]I believe you
[C]Quicksand... [Em]I'm so far a[D]waaaaaaaaa[Em]aay
