Beautiful Door
Thornton/Davis
Beautiful Door
INTRO: C G Am G F
Maybe I'm [C]crazy, maybe I'm [G]blind
'Cause I can't [Am]understand[G] the kinda [F]mind
That kills for [C]God, or money, [G]or the land
It just seems [Am]odd [G] to take that [F]kinda stand
Some on the east side, some on the west
Who think that somehow their way is best
But there are some there in the middle
Whose lives have come to mean so little
CHORUS:
[Em]You can preach all you [Am]want to
[Em]And make up forever [F]more
I know you [Am]want to walk into a[F]nother world
But I don't [C]see no [G]beautiful [C]door
I can't help myself, I like this place
And leaving's not a thing I want to face
But those who wanna go, knock yourselves out
Just don't take those who don't care about
Your power dreams and your golden gates
'Cause I hear their screams as you deal their fates
You'll never kill this world, but I am afraid
That you'll take away those you say God made
CHORUS
I know you [Am]want to walk into a[F]nother world
But I don't [C]see no [G]beautiful [C]door
You say you [Am]want to talk about a [F]better world
But you've [C]closed that [G]beautiful [C]door
