Bethlehem

D                                 F#m
The first song I learned spoke of Bethlehem
           Bm                  G
So is that prophecy or is that brainwashing?
D                                F#m
Cause no one ever pitched the Greek gods
                     Bm
And I don't know why not
             G
I think that Athena'd understand me
D                  A
When my chips have fallen
Bm               G
My messiah came calling
    D              F#m
But what if he'd not?
Bm                  G
Would my soul just rot?

[Chorus]
             D                           F#m
Oh what I'd give for just an inch of your peace
       Bm                                   Gmaj7   G
Cause I wanna fall but I've got bruises on my knees

            D                             F#m
Oh what I'd give for just an inch of your peace
      Bm
Cause I wanna fall
                   G
I wanna be someone that you'd call

[Verse 2]

D                             A
My dad's never cursed in his life
   Bm                         G
I asked if he smoked, he said 'Twice'
      D                       F#m
Well, by that standard I'm a goddamn failure
         Bm                         G
I passed blunts the day I married my wife
          D                       F#m
But I'm a child of God, just in case you forgot
        Bm                       G
And you cast me out every single chance that you got
          D
And that's your loss, not mine
         F#m
I'll be better than fine
         Bm                            G
You just missed your shot to meet the unholy divine

[Verse 3]
            D
I'm saying 'Fuck a saviour'
                F#m
And if she can't take it then she's small
          Bm
I'm gonna ask a lot of questions
            G
Because I'm giving this my all
             D
You know the people preach now
               F#m
Well they'd be putting us through shit
           Bm                               G
And if you don't sanction that then why are you rewarding it?

[Verse 4]
             D
You know the mission trips are scams
        F#m
They do more harm than good
        Bm
We got fame hungry pastors
       G
Making bank in Hollywood
         D
I'm more confused than I've been
            F#m
And I don't think this will pass
        Bm
And I'm saying your name
       G
When I think the plane will crash

[Chorus]
          D                           F#m
What I'd give (for just an inch of your peace)
       Bm                                   Gmaj7   G
Cause I wanna fall but I've got bruises on my knees

            D                             F#m
Oh what I'd give for just an inch of your peace
      Bm
Cause I wanna fall
                   G
I wanna be someone that you'd call

          D                           F#m
What I'd give (for just an inch of your peace)
       Bm                                   Gmaj7   G
Cause I wanna fall but I've got bruises on my knees

         D                             F#m
What I'd give for just an inch of your peace
      Bm
Cause I wanna fall
                   G
I wanna be someone that you'd call
