          Ab
Somebody, save our souls

We have totally lost our way
                    Cm                           Bb
Are you lost in the clouds? Or can you hold your focus?

It's ourselves that we will betray

Outro:
Gm                                              Ab
We sit on a throne, waiting for God to bend the knee

But we're nothing more than royal beggars

Gm Gm Ab x2

N.C.
But I'm as guilty as the next man
N.C.                                Ab
Our eyes are open, but we're not listening
