I like to play this in D# standard, capo on 2nd fret. Feel free to criticize andcorrect, I'm open to it, as I'm not sure about these, so please correct if need be.CIt's a series of bars thrift stores and churches lining the streetsAm Gm FWhile women with gold crosses push kids into half-formed beliefsCAnd if Lot was righteous, I think I'd rather not beAm Gm FWe lean on fences built from outdated moralityCIt's a gang mentality, it's a dangerous thingAm Gm FThey don't ask you to think, just to repeat after meCAnd assume you're too careless to look at it criticallyAm Gm FYou'll stop progress if it contradicts what you're told to believeB5 A5 C B5I refuse to spend life on my knees( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_wonder_years/i_wont_say_the_lords_prayer_crd.html )CThese billboards that flaunt these scared tacticsAm Gm FMake me think you're only good if you're afraid of being punishedCEvery single Sunday, church bells wake me upAm Gm FBut it's never enough to pull me out of bedCThe church on Main Street has got its doors painted redAm Gm FAnd I guess it's so the Angel of Death passes over it on its way to get gasCThe church over on Broad Street has got a neon sign that says Jesus Save MeAm Gm FAnd I guess it's so God can see from where he is in the cheap seatsB5 A5 C B5I refuse to spend life on my kneesFI won't let somebody elseAmSomebody elseCSomebody elseC FIf we're all just Christians or lionsC FI think I'd rather be on the side with sharper teethB5 A5I don't need saving
