Chords with lyrics

• Difficulty: Beginner

Intro:

 A augmentedA

Verse 1:
 A augmentedA
Dollar-fifty N/A beers at CBGB's
             D MajorD
I don't know who you're with

But I know I'm not there
           F# minorF#m
Sleeping bag rolled out on a backroom mattress
         D MajorD
Laid out on the floor doom-scrolling til dawn

Chorus:
         F# minorF#m
I'm keeping the faith
         D MajorD
Everything will be okay
         A augmentedA
If I draw the curtains tight
    D MajorD
And I sleep through the day
         F# minorF#m
I'm keeping the faith
         D MajorD
Everything will turn out great
      A augmentedA          D MajorD
If I can just keep my wheels steering straight

Verse 2:
     A augmentedA
Sure as shit some kind of crossroads

That's just obvious
     D MajorD
Is the ship coming in

Or is it slowly sailing away?
        F# minorF#m
Living life a vampire

And my hands are covered in stigmata
 D MajorD
Board up all the windows with a drill and a hammer

Chorus:
         F# minorF#m
I'm keeping the faith
          D MajorD
Everything will be okay
    A augmentedA
If I black out all the curtains
    D MajorD
And I sleep through the day
         F# minorF#m
I'm keeping the faith
         D MajorD
Everything will turn out great
      A augmentedA          D MajorD
If I can just keep my wheels steering straight

Bridge:
      A augmentedA
I want the feel those songs give to me

Like "Angeles", "Needle in the Hay"
       D MajorD
I want it to come from you

I want you to sing it for me
    F# minorF#m
Oh my demon, my daemon, my darling friend
     D MajorD
These centuries burn like summer days

Chorus/Outro:
         F# minorF#m
I'm keeping the faith
       D MajorD
Just like Bon Jovi
     A augmentedA
Disappear a decade
     D MajorD
And come back in a day
       F# minorF#m
Keeping the faith
         D MajorD
Everything will be okay
        A augmentedA
I'll just kick out all the windows
      D MajorD
When it's time to leave
       F# minorF#m
Keeping the faith
         D MajorD
Everything will turn out great
       F# minorF#m
Keeping the faith
         D MajorD
Everything will be okay
            A augmentedA
If I can just keep my wheels straight
