God Bless This Mess chords by Sheryl Crow

Chords with lyrics

Recorded half a step lower, but this is the version Sheryl plays on-stage.


G+G       D MajorD
Daddy's in the hallway
    A minorAm
Hanging pictures on the wall
G+G       D MajorD
Mama's in the kitchen
    A minorAm
Making casseroles for all
  G+G         D MajorD
My brother came home yesterday
   A minorAm
From somewhere far away
      G+G       D MajorD
He doesn't look like I remember
    A minorAm
He just stares off into space
      G+G       D MajorD
He must've seen some ugly things
  A minorAm
He just can't seem to say

E minorEm C majorC     G+G
God bless this mess
E minorEm C majorC     G+G
God bless this mess

Got a job in town
Selling insurance on the phone
With Robert and Teresa
And two con men from back home
Everyone I call up doesn't have the time to chat
Everybody is so busy doing this and doing that
Something has gone missing

And it makes me kinda sad, oh

God bless this mess
God bless this mess
God bless this mess

Heard about the day
that two skyscrapers came down
Firemen, policemen
And people came from all around
The smoke covered the city
And the body count arise
The president spoke words of comfort
With tears in his eyes
Then he led us as a nation
Into a war all based on lies, oh

God bless this mess
God bless this mess
God bless this mess
