B5 C#5
Hey God, why are you doing this to me?
B5 C#5
Am I not living up to what I'm supposed to be?
B5 C#5
Why am I seething with this animosity?
B5 C#5
Hey God, I think you owe me a great big apology
B5 C#5
Terrible lie x4
B5 C#5
Hey God, I really don't know what you mean
B5 C#5
Seems like salvation comes only in my dreams
B5 C#5
I feel my hatred grow all the more extreme
B5 C#5
Hey God, can this world really be as sad as it seems
B5 C#5
Terrible lie x3
B5 (only once

Don't turn away from me I someone to hold on to \
Don't turn away from me I need you to hold on to / X2
Don't turn x2
Don't take it x2
Don't
B5 C#5
Hey God, there's nothing left for me to hide
B5 C#5
I lost my ignorance security and pride
B5 C#5
I'm all alone in a world you must despise
B5 C#5
Hey God, I read your promises your promises are lies
B5 C#5

B5 C#5
You make me throw it all away
B5 C#5
My morals left to decay
How many you betray
You've taken everything
B5 C#5
My head is filled with disease
B5 C#5
My skin is beggin you to please
I'm on my hands and knees
B5 C#5
I want so much to belive
B5 C#5 X12
