Transcription by Luis Ferreira
Some ideas taken from a post by [email protected] (michael p.herlihy)
Intro: F9/nr D#7-5/nr Dsus4 Cmin6/nr
Aadd9 A Gadd9 G Dadd9 D Dadd9 D
You could say I lost my faith in science and progress
Aadd9 A Gadd9 G Dadd9 D Dadd9 D
You could say I lost my belief in the holy church
Aadd9 A Gadd9 G Dadd9 D Dadd9 D
You could say I lost my sense of direction
Aadd9 A F#7sus4 F#m7
You could say all of this and worse but
Esus4 E F#7sus4 F#7 G G/A
If I ever lose my faith in you
Esus4 E F#7sus4 F#7 G6 A7sus A7/11
There’d be nothing left for me to do
Some would say I was a lost man in a lost world
You could say I lost my faith in the people on TV
You could say I’d lost my belief in our politicians
They all seemed like game show hosts to me
If I ever lose my faith in you
There’d be nothing left for me to do
G6 Em G6 Em G6 Em G6 Em
F#m C#sus4 E9/nr Bsus Bsus4 C#sus4 F#
I could be lost inside their lies without a trace
C#sus4 D7-5/nr F#m9
But every time I close my eyes I see your face
Aadd9 A G Gadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dadd9
I never saw no miracle of science
Aadd9 A G Gadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dadd9
That didn’t go from a blessing to a curse
Aadd9 A G Gadd9 Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dadd9
I never saw no military solution
Aadd9 A F#7sus4 F#m7
That didn’t always end up as something worse but
Esus4 E D6
Let me say this first

If I ever lose my faith in you
Bsus4 B C#7sus4 C#7 D

If I ever lose my faith

If I ever lose my faith
Esus4 E F#7sus4 F#7
If I ever lose my faith
