G
What are you changing?
                         C
Who do you think you're changing?
           Am                                   G
You can't change things, we're all stuck in our ways
                              G
It's like trying to clean the ocean
                           C
What do you think you can drain it?
             Am                            G
Well it was poison and dry long before you came

[Chorus 1]

             Am      Em       G      
But you can wake up younger under the knife
            Am         Em            G
And you can wake up sounder if you get analyzed
              Am   Em G
And I better wake up

                  Am       Em      C G
There but for the grace of God, go I

[Verse 2]

                            G
It's hard to believe your prophets
                            C
When they're asking you to change things
               Am                              G
But with their suspect lives we look the other way
                         G
Are you really that pure, Sir?
                     C
Thought I saw you in Vegas
            Am               G
It was not pretty, but she was (not your wife)

[Chorus]

             Am      Em   G     
But she will wake up wealthy
             Am     Em G
And you will wake up 45
             Am           Em   G
And she will wake up with babies

                  Am       Em      C G
There but for the grace of God, go I

Am        Em        C  G
(oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
                    
[Verse 3]
     
                   G
What am I fighting for?
                    C
The cops are at my front door
          Am                                G
I can't escape that way, the windows are in flames
                        G
And what's that on your ankle?
                    C
You say they're not coming for you
       Am                           G
But house arrest is really just the same (just the same)

[Chorus]

              Am       Em         G
Like when you wake up behind the bar
            Am       Em       G
Trying to remember where you are
        Am               Em       G
Having crushed all the pretty things

                  Am        Em     C G
There but for the grace of God, go I

[Bridge]

        Am    Em  G   
But I still believe
           Am       Em     G
And I will rise up with fists
           Am          Em         G
And I will take what's mine mine mine

[Outro]

                  Am       Em      C G
There but for the grace of God, go I
                   Am      Em      C G
There but for the grace of God, go I
                   Am      Em      C G
There but for the grace of God, go I
                   Am      Em      C G
There but for the grace of God, go I
