              Eb Ebsus4 Eb                    Eb Ebsus4 Eb 
Fora while I walked           in the ways of Jesus 
          Eb Ebsus4 Eb             Bb Bbsus2 Ab 
Served me well          enough it seems 
           Eb    Eb7            Ab Ab/Bb Abm/B 
Come to find    Jesus doesnt need us 
      Eb   Ab       Eb       Bb    Eb Ebsus4 Eb 
To be any more than we need him to be 


[Verso 2]


             Eb Ebsus4 Eb                       Eb Ebsus4 Eb 
I've heard talk           like they knew about heaven 
          Eb Ebsus4 Eb                Bb Bbsus2 Ab 
I can't help            but seed the seams 
              Eb                  Eb7                Ab Ab/Bb Abm/B 
And we could pull that thread and make two cloths to clean us 
        Eb     Ab     Eb       Bb       Eb Ebsus4 Eb 
So all that I know is all Ill tell to thee

[Verso 3]


           Eb Ebsus4 Eb                   Eb Ebsus4 Eb 
I was at war            with that wild religion 
          Eb Ebsus4 Eb               Bb Bbsus2 Ab 
And it revealed            itself to me 
                    Eb            Eb7              Ab Ab/Bb Abm/B 
And it slapped me sore enough to make some good decisions 
        Eb       Ab       Eb       Bb       Eb Ebsus4 Eb 
Give me ears to hear and eyes by which to see 


[Verso 4]


                     Eb Ebsus4 Eb 
Oh, and I had heard talk (I heard talk) 
                Eb Ebsus4 Eb 
'Bout a hell beneath us (Hell beneath us) 
       Eb Ebsus4 Eb 
Fires burn (Fires burn) 
          Bb Bbsus2 Ab 
For eternity (Eternity) 
           Eb                  Eb7           Ab    Ab/Bb Abm/B 
But were all just dust for those around to see us 
        Eb     Ab      Eb     Bb     Eb Ebsus4 Eb 
So all that I know is all I tell to be
