Lord, I Know We Don't Talk Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]In a motel roo[Em]m,
[D]with the Bible [A]out[G][Em]
Combing scriptures for
[A]answers about
[G]What's happening [D]now

[Verse 2]
[G]'Cause I can't believe my [Em]eyes
[D]And I just don't trust [A]my [G]ears
[Em]But I've heard a man can
[A]always come find
[G]Some solace [D]here

[Verse 3]
And [G]Lord, I know that we don't [Em]talk
Of[D]ten at all any[G]more
[Em]But desperate folks do despera[A]te things
So [G]I'm stapling this note
to [Em]your [A]door[D]

[Verse 4]
[G]Please, turn the ship [Em]around
[D]And lock the course in pla[G]ce
[Em]And keep the train tracks
[A]nailed to the ground
[G]Or pull the emergency [D]break

[Verse 5]
[G]'Cause I've lost my faith [Em]in man
Just like I [D]once lost faith in [G]you
[Em]And I've been covering all[A]
kinds of ground
Thinking [G]hard 'bout what
else I could [D]lose

[Verse 6]
And I [Em]know how I look
To [A]come crawling back
Acting [G]like you [A]owe [D]me [Bm]proof[D]
[Bbaug]But this is b[D]igger than me[A]
[D]I think it's big[A]ger than you too[G]

[Interlude 1]
[G][Em][D][G]
[Em][A][G][D][G][Em][D]
[G][Em][A][Em][D]

[Verse 7]
[G]So if this get[Gm]s to [D]you[Em]
[D]Yeah if you ever com[G]e home
[Em]Just know I won't be
[A]awaiting the postman
[G]I will not be glued to my phone
[D]I'l[G]l know a change has[D] com[Em]e
[D]I'll know that you exist
[G][Em]

[Verse 8]
When all our bombs stop ex[A]ploding
And when [G]all of those
landmines are [D]stripped
And [G]we stop blowin' up
[D]strangers' houses
And making [G]orphans of [A]innocent [Bm]kids
[Em]And people stop thinking the world's
[A]theirs for the taking
[G]'Cause your world once told them it [D]is

[Verse 9]
'Til [G]then, I'm gonna shake my [Em]head
[D]I'm gonna bite my ton[G]gue
[Em]When people tell me,
'Have [A]faith and be patient,
[G]We're waiting for God to [D]show up.'

[Verse 10]
Yeah 'til [G]then,
it's [A]one more skep[Bbdim]tical son[Em]g[Bm]
[D]And I'll be glad as hel[G]l
If [A]you come and prove me wrong
[D]
