Something To Believe In

D
I'm not the king of America I've got
 a blue collar heart
Put together with rusted old bolts 
              G
and discarded radio parts
Just a kid from Gainesville watching
             G           D     A
 Petty with my lighter in the dark -
 yeah
           D
I've done all the wrong things for 
all the right reasons
G
And all the right things in all the 
wrong seasons
Em                    G          
I'm just like you man, ain't it 
              D    A
an uphill fight yeah
D
Tonight I'm singing a brand new song
 on an old guitar
G
And they keep telling me you won't 
get to far, but...
Em                          G    
But I know who I am and I know 
          D    A
who you are--yeah

      D
We're simple men who love 
complicated women
G
Dealt loosing hands but we still 
think we're winning
Em                          D    
Add it all up and it don't seem 
                             G
like much but it's something
G                 A    D    G
Something to believe in yeah
Continues after the ad
                 Em                
Something to believe in can I get 
    G       D      A
an amen yeah - yeah

D
So we'll go home and we'll put our 
kids to bed
G
Rock and roll dreams rumble around 
in our heads
     Em                            
And I'll even thank the Lord for 
   G              D    A
our daily bread yeah--yeah
   D                            
Then we'll agree to disagree and 
                          G
I'll even slam the door
G
Hey baby at least we got a love 
worth fighting for
        Em                       G
And I'll tell you I'm sorry and 
                           D    
I'll come crawling back for more 
 A
yeah - yeah

            D
Cause I'm a simple man who loves a 
complicated woman
       G
Nothing else in my life I wish I was
 doing,
Em                          D    
Add it all up and it don't seem 
                  G
like much but it's something
G                 A    D    G
Something to believe in yeah
                 Em                
Something to believe in can I get 
    G       D      A
an amen yeah - aw yeah

A
Pretty soon we'll all be leaving 
here
G                              
Tomorrow morning this night will 
         D
disappear
Bm          A               Bm   
Maybe this song can be a souvenir
 A      G     A
 of something
                 D     G
Something to believe in yeah

[Chorus]]

    Em                       D    
To believe in can I get an amen 
    G     A
yeah - yeah
                 D
Something to believe in
                 G
Hold on to that feeling
       Em         G  D A
To believe in yeah - oooh
D       G
Hold on, hold on
