 But all the people that you made in your image

 See them starving on their feet

 I can't believe in you

 Dear God, sorry to disturb you, but
 I feel that I should be heard loud and clear
 We all need a big reduction in amount of tears
 And all the people that you made in your image
 See them fighting in the street
 Cause they can't make opinions meet

 Dear God, don't know if you've noticed, but
 Your name is on a lot of quotes in this book
 And us crazy humans wrote it - you should take a look
 And all the people that you made in your image
 Still believe that junk is true
 Well I know it ain't, and so do you
 Dear God
 I can't believe in
   D2 Am  Am/F Am/G
 I don't believe in...

       D2
     I won't believe in heaven and hell
 A#
     No saints, no sinners, no devil as well
  D2
     The pearly gates, no thorny crown
     A#
     You're always letting us humans down
  G
     The wars you bring, the babes you drown
    A#
     Those lost at sea and never found

  D2
     And it's the same the whole world 'round
  A#
     The hurt I see helps to compound
  G
     The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
   A#
     It's just somebody's unholy hoax
  D2
     And if you're up there you'd perceive
   A#
     That my heart's here upon my sleeve
 G      A7 (pause)
     If there's one thing I don't believe in
