D Em7 D G Em7 A D Em7 D G
[Chorus]
D Em7 D G
Said I'm scared, Lord, I'm scared, I'm terrified
Em7
Never been much on religion
A D Em7 D G
But I sure enough would like to hear the call
D Em7 D G
I'm scared, Lordy Lord, I'm shaking, I'm petrified
Em7
Never been much on religion
A D Em7 D G
But I sure enough just fell down on my knees
[Verse 1]
D A
I heard the choir singing
F#m Bm
Something about good will toward men
D A D Em7 D G
And then their sleeping in heavenly peace
D A
Stopped by to see Saint Thomas
F#m B7
On a cold and dreary New York afternoon
E7
Something in the air was oh so rare
Em7 A7sus4
I don't know what it was but I know
D
That it's still right there
[Chorus]
Em7 D G
And I'm scared, Lordy Lord, I'm shaking, I'm terrified
Em7
Never been much on religion
A D Em7 D G
But I sure enough just fell down on my knees
[Instrumental]
D Em7 D G Em7 A D Em7 D G
[Verse 2]
D A
Living in confusion
F#m Bm
Searching for truth that I never found
D A D Em7 D G
I needed something to really believe
D A
Looked toward the heavens
F#m B7
On a dark and stormy winter afternoon
E7
Something in the air was oh so rare
Em7
I'm not really sure what it was
A7sus4 D
But I know for sure that it's still right there
[Chorus]
D Em7 D G
And I'm scared, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, I'm terrified
Em7
Never been much on religion
A D Em7 D G
But I sure enough just fell down on my knees, ooooh, oooh, ooh
[Chorus]
D Em7
Oh, I'm scared, you know I'm shakin'
D G
I'm layin' awake thinkin' about it now, I'm terrified
Em7
Never been much on religion
A D
But I sure enough would like to hear the call
Em7 D G
Come on now, give me a sign you're listening to me
[Chorus]
D Em7
You hear me talking, you hear me crying
D G
It's confusing to me, Lord, I'm terrified
Em7
Never been much on religion
A D Em7 D G
But I sure enough just fell down on my knees, oh
[Outro]
