D

[Verse]
I have listened to the prophets and 
     G        C        D
I've listened to their news
And I've seen their marble statues 
         G         C        D
and I've heard the faithful sing
            G       C            
But do they live by what they're 
D
singing
           G        C     A
Would they turn the other cheek

[Chorus]
     D
Lead on, I'll follow
     G        C    D
I'll find you if I can
D
Lead on, I'll follow
     G        C    D
I'll find you if I can

[Verse]
In the churches, god is holy, and 
    G      C          D
the people hide their hate
But on the roadside, he's forgotten,
     G        C       D
 and god will have to wait
    G        C      D
And how long can he suffer
Continúa después del anuncio
    G        C       A
And how long must he wait

[Chorus]
     D
Lead on, I'll follow
     G        C    D
I'll find you if I can
D
Lead on, I'll follow
     G        C    D
I'll find you if I can

[Verse]
And they're fighting one another 
       G           C        D
with a prayer book in their hand
But with a weapon in the other, 
        G     C    D
they'll never understand
    G         C            D
And each side claim you as their god
         G         C       A
But they take your name in vain

[Chorus]
     D
Lead on, I'll follow
     G        C    D
I'll find you if I can
D
Lead on, I'll follow
     G        C    D
I'll find you if I can

[Verse]
Stop and listen to the children, 
     G      C    D
they cannot understand
They are puzzled by the fire and the
 G        C      D
 marching of the band
        G      C    D
They've longer to remember
   G         C      A
So they will suffer most

[Chorus]
     D
Lead on, I'll follow
     G        C    D
I'll find you if I can
D
Lead on, I'll follow
     G        C    D
I'll find you if I can
