i’m an unbeliever
C G Am F
Has the light spread, or the darkness shrunk?
C D F
Do the nights not fall any more?
C G Am F
In the silver chain of lakes I sunk
C D F
'Til something hauled me ashore
Am F
And G-d was watching with his beady eye
Am F G
Salivating, waiting for my cry
Am Em F Em
But then she came by, kicked the angels from the sky
F G
Now I'm an unbeliever
Am F G
'Cause she's a breathing, walking, talking heathen
Am Em F
And I need her
C G Am F
When the darkness came, like a spreading stain
C D F
I could sometimes feel myself fall
C G Am F
Through the black drain of a loveless world
C D F
To a place where cowards crawl
Am F
When G-d was watching, I could feel him sneer
Am F G
Easy picking, pulling prayers from the fear
Am Em F Em
But then she came by, kicked the angels from the sky
F Dm G
And out of nothing she materialized
Am Dm F G
A vision with her wings missing, she opened up my eyes
Em Am F Am
A mission ready for kissing so the dead could be revived
Am F
If G-d is watching, surely he'll despair
Am F G
Another sucker lost to one who's really there
Am Em F Em
'Cause when she came by, well the angels quit the sky
(F) Am Em D
As long as I can see her
Am Em F
I'll be an unbeliever
(Repeat Am-Em-F)
I was on my knees, yeah
I was sinking deeper
I was praying "Please bring me some relief", yeah
My mind was dead, erased
I was flesh and blood asking to be saved
I was ripe for the grip of some phony holy fellowship
And now I need her
Now I can feel her
Now I can see her
Am Em
Let me testify
D
Without no fear, yeah
I'm an unbeliever
