Verse (0:05)

Em
Spent my commission on
G
Another diversion and I
A
Don't got no meaning
G
No purpose left at all
Em
My pastor tells me that my
G
My light is dimming and I
A
Been too long drifting
G
In an ocean
     Em
It's OK
               G
You just need faith
                  A
Been looking for answers
               G
In the wrong place
Em
But how do I tell him that the
G
There's something missing and I
A
Don't got no substance since you've 
gone



Prechorus (0:44)

C               A
Every day I go down to the water
      Em                         
And I pray since you left me that 
  G
way
    C                    A
Oh Lord, I'm trying to keep my mind
        Em
On the good news that's in my heart

Chorus (1:03)

E  G        A
   For the good, good news
          G
For the good, good news

E  G        A
   For the good, good news
          G
For the good, good news

   For the good, good news
          G
For the good, good news

E  G  A
      Since my baby left, my light

Like a bird without a song or a sun

that will not rise

Verse (1:56)

    Em
Now I can make the eye
     G
To anyone that I desire
           A
Throwing down one for the lost boys
        G
At the very edge of town
    Em
Now I can spin a lie
             G
That burns me up all through the 
night
                A
Cause I've got no one home to answer
 to
     G
This time
Em                  G
Every day is in repeat
              A                 G
Like a carrier bag stuck in a tree
    Em                          
I used to find my answers in the 
   G
gospels of St John
            A
But now I find them at the bottom of
 this shot glass



Prechorus (2:36)

C               A
Every day I go down to the water
      Em                         
And I pray since you left me that 
   G
way
    C                    A
Oh Lord, I'm trying to keep my mind
        Em
On the good news that's in my heart



Chorus (2:55)

E  G        A
   For the good, good news
          G
For the good, good news

E  G        A
   For the good, good news
          G
For the good, good news

E  G        A
   For the good, good news
          G
For the good, good news

E  G        A
   For the good, good news
          G
For the good, good news

E  G  A
      Since my baby left, my light 
refuses to shine
Like a bird without a song or a sun 
                E
that will not rise
