The Spirit chords by Magnum

Am                 D               G         Am
Don't place your trust in foolish promises sworn
Am           D                 Em        Am
Nor cryptic message scrawled upon every wall
C              G         F    E
Street corner justice beware
Am        F              G          Am   G   Dsus2   E
The spirit will find you always be fair

Am           D                     G         Am
The shallow verse once read means nothing at all
Am           D                Em         Am
Nor fearful gestures made for instant recall
C             G              F      E
In lies your heart will not share
Am         F      G            Am
The spirit inside used without care

Em        C                 D           Em
The spirit that guides you follow it through
Em           C           D           Em
To the spirit inside you always be true
G    D              C
You know you'll despair
Em           C          D             Em
If the spirit inside is used without care

Am          D             G          Am
The battlefield of glory pales into rust
Am          D                 Em            Am
The river flows much thicker fed by each thrust
C          G            F     E
No beast alive does compare
Am        F           G      Am
The spirit beside you everywhere

Am            D                 G         Am
Let not your head be turned by tainted reward
Am             D             Em       Am
And dreams of fortune won forever to hoard
C                G           F     E
Your conscience could not repair
Am        F       G             Am
The spirit inside used without care

           G             Am               C        G
'Cause it will be your shelter, help you how to decide
        G            Am                 C           D
And it will be your helper should your loyalties divide

Em        C                 D           Em
The spirit that guides you follow it through
Em           C           D           Em
To the spirit inside you always be true
G    D              C
You know you'll despair
Em           C          D             Em
If the spirit inside is used without care



Am          D             G              Am
The ash of pages swept before the cruel wind
Am            D              Em          Am
The loss of choices praises no-one will sing
C            G            F     E
No clues to how you will fare
Am        F               G              Am
The spirit implores you tread where you dare

Am              D              G             Am
The dust lies thick on casket rich or quite poor
Am           D              Em           Am
Distinction disappears the worm both deplore
C           G              F     E
The candle burns out once more
Am            F            G          Am
But the spirit inside you won't be ignored

Em        C                 D           Em
The spirit that guides you follow it through
Em           C           D           Em
To the spirit inside you always be true
G    D              C
You know you'll despair
Em           C          D             Em
