Silent War

 
G                        G4(6) 
One foot in front of the other 
       G7(4)    G4(6) 
E|t's| a silent --war 


G 
I was looking for a fight to get a high 
G4(6) 
I was looking for a job to pass the time 
G7(4)           G4(6) 
Couldn't lie to myself, couldn't feel a thing 
G 
I was waiting for my life to get in line 
G4(6) 
I would wake up in the morning and I'd wanna die 
G7(4)      G4(6) 
I would feel anxiety, that controlled my mind 


C9           D9 
I was falling down a hellish slope 
C9              D9 
 I would grab anything to cope 
        C9 
All the pipes and the lines 
                      C9 
And the girls and the wine came low 


G 
I had been to church just to pay my tithes 
G4(6) 
I was looking at God like He hustled mine 
G7(4)                            G4(6) 
I couldn't get it, I didn't want to live a lie 
G 
I tried the game of a middle-class saint 
G4(6) 
I tried the mask for a 9-5 day 
   G7(4)                    G4(6) 
Put back some pills, with a whiskey chase 


C9             D9 
I was cruising down an empty road 
C9            D9 
 Losing every shred of hope 
        C9 
All the pride and the dimes 
                      C9 
And the fight and the crime came low 


C9           D9      C9 
 Eyes crying out for something more 
    D9 
I'm not satisfied with all the world 
C9          D9        C9 
Eyes crying out for something more 
                      D9                  C9 
I'm not satisfied with all the world has to offer me 
    G              G4 
And I hear a voice calling my name 
       G             G4 
Warmth fills my heart, it's Jesus to blame 
G            G4 
I see my past melting away 
      G                    G4 
Warmth fills my lungs with joyful praise 
   G    G4           G   G4 
Jesus, Jesus, I see You Jesus 
           G               G4 
I see Your heart, I see the light 
           G               G4 
I see Your heart, I see the light 
       G            G4 
It's Jesus, Jesus, Jesus 
   G                 G4 
My heart fills up with love so bright 
    G              G4 
This love inside I can't describe 
 G                   G4 
Depression dies when Jesus is mine 
G            G4 
Joy, joy, joy, joy, joy, joy, joy is mine 
G     G4    G            G4 
Jesus,       Jesus, You fight my battles for me 
    G               G4 
You win the war, You win the war
