[Verse 1]
    C#m         E/G#
You say You are jealous
    A           E
You say You are kind
         C#m           B        
But the 'jealous part' seems to 
A2          E
win all the time
C#m          E/G#    A          
If You're so mighty, why do you 
E
break
    C#m          B          A2   
The weak and the weary, and see 
         E
what they make

[Verse 2]
    C#m           E/G#
You say You're forgiving
     A             E
That You'll not forsake
    C#m            B          A2 
But You punched me out when I 
       E
made a mistake
  C#m         E/G#          A    
I try to find beauty in the mess 
         E
that You made
    C#m             B         A2 
But You just stayed angry and 
      E
never forgave

[Chorus]
C#m    B/D#         E
Yes, I know You are great
E   E/F# E/G# A       E/G#     
But is   a    bad God better 
   F#m7
than none?

How much more will it take to 
E/F# E/G# A      E/G#          
undo   the  damage that You have 
F#m7
done?
           C#m        B     
'Cause the wicked and wayward 
     A9       E
continue to thrive
        C#m        B     A9  
And the martyrs continue giving 
         E
their lives
        C#m      B              
Oh, the faithful never never 
A9  E
survive
        C#m      B              
Oh, the faithful never never 
A9  E
survive

[Verse 3]
C#m          E/G#       A     E
You're the almighty, so I am afraid
    C#m           B            A2
You crushed me to pieces, then 
           E
stole what I made
   C#m        E/G#        A      
If hopeless delusion is a 
         E
righteous man's fate
        C#m           B          
I don't know how much more I can 
A2  E
take

[Chorus]
C#m    B/D#         E
Yes, I know You are great
E   E/F# E/G# A       E/G#     
But is   a    bad God better 
   F#m7
than none?
C#m      G#7          E/B     E 
How much more will it take to

undo   the  damage that You have

C#m         G#m
God are You listening?
A              E
Please hear my cry
        C#m      B                 
I don't really believe You're more 
A2                E
cruel than You're kind
    C#m         B          A2    
But I'm getting tired of 
       E
repeating this line
         C#m      B        A2  E
That the faithful never survive

[Chorus]
C#m    B/D#         E
Yes, I know You are great
E    E/F#   E/G# A         
That You're a    good God, 
E/G#        F#m7
and You are love
C#m      B/D#         E       E 
How much more will it take to 
E/F# E/G# A      E/G#          F#m7
undo   the  damage that I have done?
       C#m           B            
Please conquer these demons and 
  A9         E
the darkness inside
C#m        B             A9     
Shine Your light on this cold 
       E
heart of mine
C#m      B             A9  E
Maybe my faith will survive
C#m      B             A9  E
Maybe my faith will survive
C#m      B             A9
Maybe my faith will survive
