[Verse 1]
[G]The[Gsus2] offering[C]s d[G]own[Gsus2],[G]
the [D]crowds have gone
[G]Hus[C]tled by huckste[G]rs,
ripped [D]off by the cons
It's [G]one more show, so [D]flip the di[G]al
Give [C]up on the [G]reel and [D]settle the [G]style[F]
Just [G]open your ears to the
[D]people you meet
[G]Even [C]the nam[G]e is a jok[D]e on the street
Cyn[G]ics laugh, [D]they turn away
[G]Why [C]should they believe
[G]what you're trying[D] to say[G]?
[C]We don't need another talk[G]ing head
We [D]don't need another [G]pro
So [Em]what if we do it as [Bm]well as the world
If [C]they just see [Am]another [D]show
We [G]light the candle, [D]we ring the bell
[G]Playing[C] the roles
[G]that we've lea[D]rned so well
[G]Hungry but blind to [D]why and how
[G]Sti[C]ll we keep feeding[G] that sacred[D] cow
[G]We [C]don't need another driv[G]en man
We [D]don't need a clanging [G]gong
So [Em]what if we do it as [Bm]well as the world
When they've [C]done it that
[Am]way all [D]along
[C]Where is the life that is real [G]to the touch
When [Bsus4]somebody [B]needs a [Em]hand
[C]Maybe after you've
stopped the bleed[G]ing
[Em]You can [C]show them
the [D]promised [G]land
Just like the [F]unbelieving
brothers of Je[C]sus
[D]Those voices are whispering to [G]you
If [F]you're really filled with the Spir[C]it
You'll [A]show the world what you can
[D]do[G][D][G][C][G][D][G][D]
[G][C][G][D]
The [G]public prayers, the [D]TV show
[G]They're [C]all well and good
[G]as [D]far as they go
But [G]those outside will [D]hide their pain
[G]Till you [C]show them your love
[G]When there's noth[D]ing to gain
[G]We don[C]'t need a star of
the [G]stage or the screen
We [D]don't need another [G]pro
So [Em]what if we do it as [D]well as the world
[Bm]If they ju[C]st see ano[Am]ther s[D]how?
[C]Where is the heart of compas[G]sion
That [Bsus4]answers the cry o[B]f despair
[Em]In t[C]he hand that is
moved by the Spir[G]it
[Em]Is t[C]he proof of the God [D]who is there[G]
In the [C]hand that is moved by the Spir[G]it
[Em]Is the p[C]roof of the Go[D]d who
is [G]there[F][G][F][G][F][G]
[F][G]
