[Verse 1]
Oh [G]God said to me,
gonna [Bm]kick your ass,
cause [C]all you do is [G]ask, ask, ask.
All that energy look[Bm]ing for me
When I'm [C]sitting here
inside your [G]plane to see
[D]How I built you [C]self for self
[G]Gave you sig[C]hts to see,
[G]I gave you tal[C]es to tel[G]l
[D]Even let you help yourself [C]for a while
[G]To [C]take some [G]weight off this busy child
Now I said to God, I [Bm]found you out
Cause [C]I know what this life is a[G]ll about
And God said stop,
don't [Bm]scramble your brain
Our [C]op ponent's been
messing you [G]around again
See [D]him and me are en[C]emies
[G]An d we [C]play little [G]games for galaxies
And [D]he's inside you and [C]I am too
[G]So [C]here we [G]are for just the three of [C]you[G]
Oh, we've made mistakes,
too many [Bm]cards
But [C]making human being[G]s can be hard
A God gets tired of playing
[Bm]so much chess
He [C]wishes his God
would get him [G]out of his mess
I [D]said to God, what's it [C]like to [G]die?
He [C]said, it's as [G]plain as the
[C]sea and [G]sky
Concep[D]tion was me and him [C]and you
[G]When your battery's fading,
well, I'll just move on
Oh, I said to God,
who's win[Bm]ning this game?
Is the [C]devil in front?
He said, is [G]that his name?
You know, I've been so busy,
I nev[Bm]er asked
I nev[C]er looked up from this awe[G]some task
I [D]said to God, what's good [C]and [G]bad?
He [C]said, it's just [G]something
that you gotta have
It [D]don't mean nothin' to [C]us up here
[G]But you're [C]primitive [G]evil,
you got[C]ta [G]have fear
Now I said to God, do I think [Bm]for myself?
He [C]said, I told you once,
you just [G]help yourself
Don't you forget,
you're com[Bm]posed of three
Your [C]thinking comes from [G]Him and me
Now I [D]said to God, how [C]big are [G]you?
Is there a religion?
[C]Is it [G]true?
How [D]big's the universe?
[C]Is tim[G]e the sam[C]e for you
[G]as my life is to mine?
Oh, it's sad if all the things
that [Bm]made worlds float
were [C]all to part
But then [G]you would note
the size of him and the [Bm]size of me
And [C]that's how big we [G]both shall be
They [D]say the universe [C]is small
[G]Just like some for[C]tun[G]e teller's ball
And we [D]sit down and we [C]play the game
[G]If somebody win[C]s i[G]t
all starts again
There's no religion
You [Bm]did that
[C]It helps to keep your little
lead[G]er standing
Like faith and supersti[Bm]tion stated
To [C]help you pass the [G]time away
But [D]when you talk a dia[C]mond line
[G]It [C]makes me [G]think of circles, heights
Expan[D]sion is the clue
[C]Your [G]dreams are [C]clear
[G]er than you'll [C]ever [G]be
Now you see my little [Bm]toy's a thing
It's from [C]two bowls of [G]wine to drink
Don't take too much or you [Bm]may drown
Be[C]have yourself,
see you [G]around[Bm][C][G][Bm][C]
[G][Bm][C][G]
Thanks
