[Intro 1]
[A]
[Am][A]
[D][G][D][G][D][G][D][G]
A [D]new age

[Verse 1]
is [G]dawning
On few[D]er than expec[G]ted[D]
Business as [G]Usual
That's [D]how the headline [G]read
[D]Some shaky modern sa[G]viors
Have now [D]been resur[G]rected[D]
In all this ex[G]citement
You may [D]have been [G]misled
[D]

[Verse 2]
People want [G]a miracle
They say Oh [D]Lord,
can't you [G]see [D]us?
We're tryin' to make a [G]livin' down here
And [D]keep the children [G]fed
But, [D]from little dark [G]motel rooms
To Six [D]Flags over [G]Jesus
[D]How are the mig[G]hty fallen
[D]So the Bible [G]said
[D]You don't

[Verse 3]
have to pray to a [G]little tin god
[D]Step out of the way for a [G]little tin god
You might [A]fear the reaper, fear the rod
But you never [D]have to get
down on [G]your knees
You don't [D]have to holler, please, [G]please
No, [D]you never have to get
down on [G]your knees
For a little tin [D]god
[G]

[Verse 4]
[D]The [G]cow[D]boy's
name was Jin[G]go
And he [D]heard that there was [G]trouble
[D]So in a blaze of [G]glory
He rode [D]out of the [G]west
[D]No one was ever cer[G]tain
What it [D]was that he was say[G]in'
But they [D]loved it when [G]he told them
They were bet[D]ter than [G]the rest
But you [D]don't

[Verse 5]
have to
pray to a [G]little tin god
Step out [D]of the way for a
[G]little tin god
You might [A]hate the system, hate the job
But you never [D]have to get
down on your [G]knees
You don't [D]have to holler, please, [G]please
No, you never [D]have to get
down on [G]your knees
For a little tin [D]god

[Bm][G][A][Bm][C][D][G][D][G]
[D][G][D][G][A]
[D]Throw down

[Verse 6]
a rope from [G]heaven
And [D]lead the flock to [G]water
The man [D]in the middle
would [G]have you think
That you [D]have no other [G]choice
But to [D]wander in the wil[G]derness
Of [D]all the upturned [G]faces
[D]If you stop and listen [G]long enough
You will hear [D]your own [G]small voice
But [D]you don't

[Verse 7]
have to
pray to a [G]little tin god
[D]Step out of the way for a [G]little tin god
You might [A]fear the reaper, fear the rod
But you never [D]have to [G]get
down [D]on your [G]knees
You don't [D]have to holler, please, [G]please
No, you [D]never have to get
down on [G]your knees
[D]Never have to holler, please, [G]please
You never [D]have to get down on your [G]knees
You never [D]have to holler,
[G]please, please
You nev[D]er have to get
down on [G]your knees
[D]For [G]a l[D]itt[G]le tin god
