[Verse]
Am7                                 Am6
All I ever need is the truth but I all ever want is affection
Am7                                 Am6
Masquerade as Jesus Christ and suffer the crucifixion
Am7                                 Am6
Lips that speak of love eternal come heal my savaged skin
Am7                                 Am6
Cast aside all thought of revenge searching for Nirvana within
C5  D5              C5      D5
And God only knows my belief holds strong
C5  D5              C5      D5
The wisdom comes when the heart suffers long
Am7                                 Am6
And I'm shedding tears for Judas a kiss may betray
Am7                                 Am6
And I'm on the side of angels on the heels of a dream a ghost to lay
C5  D5              C5      D5
A hard reign may fall and a cruel wind may blow
C5  D5              C5      D5
The moon may be pale and I may never know
Am7                                 Am6
The need for silence but I can see hope in the wind in the rain

[Chorus]
Dsus2             B5         Am
Lay belief on me, my angel child
Dsus2             Em          Am   E5
Lay belief on me, my angel child

[Verse]
Am7                           Am6
The actor and the poet martyr castles carved in sand
Am7                             Am6
Delight and the promise of Eden lay in the touch of your hand
C5  D5              C5      D5
As sweet as sin sweeter still the taste
C5  D5              C5      D5
The way of all flesh lay me to waste
Am7                           Am6
And heaven knows that the meek shall inherit the earth

[Chorus]
Dsus2             B5         Am
Lay belief on me, my angel child
Dsus2             Em          Am
Lay belief on me, my angel child
Dsus2             B5         Am
Lay belief on me, my angel child
Dsus2             Em          Am   E5
Lay belief on me, my angel child

[Verse]
Am7                           Am6
Behold a silent ocean in a precious grain of sand
Am7                           Am6
And if I have to explain then you'll never understand
C5  D5              C5      D5
My petals are strewn scattered by the breeze
C5  D5              C5      D5
It's whispered in the wind echoes through the trees
Am7                                    Am6
Love's a disease and it rips me apart, come heal my ravaged heart

[Chorus]
Dsus2             B5         Am
Lay belief on me, my angel child
Dsus2             Em          Am
Lay belief on me, my angel child
Dsus2                         B5         Am
Lay belief on me, lay belief, my angel child
Dsus2             Em          Am
Lay belief on me, my angel child

Dsus2                         B5         Am
Lay belief on me, lay belief, my angel child
Dsus2             Em          Am
Lay belief on me, my angel child

Dsus2                         B5         Am
Lay belief on me, lay belief, my angel child
Dsus2             Em             Am
My angel child, my angel child, my angel child
