[(intro) ]D 

F                                   Am 
 I've got my own moral compass to steer by 
F                                      Am 
 A guiding star beats a spirit in the sky 
     G                     Em 
 And all the preaching voices 
         F                   G 
 Empty vessels of dreams so loud 
         Em            F 
As they move among the crowd 
G                           Em 
 Fools and thieves are well disguised 
         F                 G 
 In the temple and market place 
          Em                D 
 In the temple and market place 
 Like a stone in the river 
 Against the floods of spring 
                      Em 
 I will quietly resist 
 I will quietly resist 
D 
 Like the willows in the wind 
 Or the cliffs along the ocean 
                       Em 
 I will quietly resist 
 I will quietly resist 
   C 
 I don't have faith in faith 
 I don't believe in belief 
 A 
 You can call me faithless 
 Em 
 You can call me faithless 
 C 
 I still cling to hope 
 And I believe in love 
             A 
 And that's faith enough for me 
            Em                    D 
 And that's faith enough for me 

F                                 Am 
 I've got my own spirit level for balance 
    F                                   Am 
 To tell if my choice is leaning up or down 
     G                    Em 
 And all the shouting voices 
         F                G 
 Try to throw me off my course 
          Em              F 
 Some by sermon some by force 
 G                       Em 
 Fools and thieves are dangerous 
        F                 G 
 In the temple and market place 
          Em                 D 
 In the temple and market place 

 Like a forest bows to winter 
 Beneath the deep white silence 
                      Em 
 I will quietly resist 

D 
 Like a flower in the desert 

 That only blooms at night 
                      Em 
 I will quietly resist 

   C 
 I don't have faith in faith 
 I don't believe in belief 
 A 
 You can call me faithless 
 Em 
 You can call me faithless 
 C 
 I still cling to hope 
 And I believe in love 
             A 
 And that's faith enough for me 
            Em 
 And that's faith enough for me
