Chord/Tab song: Show Me the Way

[D] [-] [A] [-] [G]

1. [D]Every ni[G]ght I say[A] a pray[D]er, in the [Bm]hopes that [Em]there's a [A]heaven,

[D]but every[G] day I'm [A]more c[D]onfused as th[Bm]e saints[G] turn into[A] sinners.

All the [Bm]heroes and [D]legends I [Bm]knew as a [E]child,

have f[G]allen to [D]idols of [A]clay,

and I [D]feel th[G]is empty p[A]lace [D]inside, so a[G]fraid that [Em]I've lost my[A] faith.


Show me the [D]way, [G] show me the [D]way ![G]

Take me [D]tonight to [F#m]the river and [Bm]wash my [A]illusions a[Em]way.[A]

please, show me the [D]way.[G][D][G][-][D][-][G][-][D][-][G]


2. And [D]as I sl[G]owly [A]drift to s[D]leep, for a[Bm] moment [Em]dreams are[A] sacred,

I c[D]lose my[G] eyes and k[A]now there?s [D]peace in a[Bm] world so[G] filled with[A] hatred.

That I wake[Bm] up each mo[D]rning and [Bm]turn on the [E]news,

to fi[G]nd we?ve so far[D] to go,[A]

and[D] I keep on[G] hoping[A] for a s[D]ign, so a[G]fraid t[Em]hat I just won?t kn[A]ow.


Show me the [D]way, [-] [G] show me the way ![D][-][G]
