[Verse 1]
Oh [G]God
said to me, gonna [Bm]kick your ass,
cause [C]all you do is as[G]s, ass, ass.
All that energy look[Bm]ing for me
When I'm [C]sitting here inside
your [G]plane to see
[D]How I built you [C]self for self
[G]Give you sig[C]hts to see[G],
I'll give you [C]tales to [G]tell
[D]Even let you help yourself [C]for a while
[G]To tak[C]e some wei[G]ght off this bus[C]y chi[G]ld
Now I said to
God, I [Bm]found you out
Cause [C]I know what this life is a[G]ll about
And
God said stop, don't [Bm]scramble your brain
Our [C]op ponent's been
messing you [G]around again
See [D]him and me are en[C]emies
[G]An d we [C]play little [G]games for galaxies
And [D]he's inside you and [C]I am too
[G]So her[C]e we are[G],
but just the three of [C]you[G]
Oh, we've made mistakes,
too many [Bm]cards
But [C]making human being[G]s can be hard
A
God gets tired of playing [Bm]so much chess
He [C]wishes his
God would get him [G]out of his mess
I [D]said to
God, what's it [C]like to [G]die?
He [C]said, it's as [G]plain as the
[C]sea and [G]sky
Concep[D]tion was me and him [C]and you
[G]When your batter is fairy, I'll just move on
Oh, I said to
God, who's [Bm]win ning this game?
Is the [C]devil in front?
He said, is [G]that his name?
You know, I've been so busy,
I nev[Bm]er asked
I nev[C]er looked up from this awe[G]some task
I [D]said to
God, what's good [C]and [G]bad?
He [C]said it's just [G]something
that you gotta have
They [D]don't mean nothin' to [C]us up here
[G]But you're [C]primitive evil,
[G]you gotta [C]hav[G]e fear
Now I said to
God, do I think [Bm]for myself?
He [C]said, I told you once,
you just [G]help yourself
Don't you forget,
you're com[Bm]posed of three
Your [C]thinking comes from
[G]Him and me
Now I [D]say to
God, how [C]big are [G]you?
Is there a religion?
[C]Is it [G]true?
How [D]big's the universe?
[C]Is tim[G]e the sam[C]e for you
[G]as my life is to mine?
Oh, it's sad if all the things that [Bm]made worlds close were [C]all to parts,
but then [G]you would note
The size of him and the [Bm]size of me
And [C]that's how big [G]we both shall be
They [D]said the universe [C]is small
[G]Just like som[C]e fortun[G]e teller's ball
And we [D]sit down and we [C]play the game
[G]When somebody win[C]s[G]
it all starts again
There's no religion, if you [Bm]did that
[C]It'd help to keep your
little [G]leader's staff
Like faith and supersti[Bm]tion stated
To [C]help you pass the [G]time away
But [D]when you talk of [C]time and life
[G]It [C]makes me [G]think of
Circles, heights, expan[D]sion
Is the clue [C]your dream[G]s are n[C]ear
er [G]than you've [C]ever [G]been
Now you see my little [Bm]toy to think
Is [C]from two bowls of [G]wine to drink
Don't take too much or you [Bm]may drown
Be[C]have yourself,
see you [G]around[Bm][C][G][Bm][C]
[G][Bm][C]
you
[G]
