         Dm                 G                   Bb
If we're grateful and we're thankful then we're spiritual
         F               A             Bb
If we're hiding, we're denying all the love inside
   C               Bb    F
So don't let your spirit die
G7            C              Bb
Lay down your arms and we'll walk together
N/C
Into the light

  F      F        Bb                F
I cannot find the words to be all forgiving
Bb                   F
It's gonna take some time
        Cm                   Bb
Cos the old disease it got a hold of me
      G7             C
And I need to apologize
           A	          D7
And It's a myth to say we block things out
        Gm                  C
When we really block things in
   Dm           Bb
Oh I'm so sorry baby
        F
but I'm doing everything I can

         Dm                 G                   Bb
If we're grateful and we're thankful then we're spiritual
         F               A             Bb
If we're hiding, we're denying all the love inside
   C               Bb    F
So don't let your spirit die
G7            C              Bb
Lay down your arms and we'll walk together
N/C
Into the light


   F     F      Bb                    F
I cannot get to sleep 'cos I feel so angry
Bb                F
It's gonna take a while
        Cm                   Bb
cos the old disease put a resentment in me
         G7          C
And the inability to smile
            A                D7
and it's a joke to think I'm hurting you
         Gm          C
cos I'm only hurting me
          Dm                     Bb
I've been beating myself for so long now
        F
That it comes so naturally

G#                              Bb
Love is the only thing that can set a soul free
G#                          Bb
fighting everybody don't do anything for me
G#
love is the only thing
Bb
I need it, I feel it, I hope that we're gonna be
G#
grateful for each other


           Dm               G                Bb
Now I feel grateful, I feel thankful, I feel spiritual
        F          A              Bb
I'm not hiding, or denying all my love for you
         C          Bb    F
It's the feeling of being alive
G7           C
Take hold my heart
          Bb
and we'll walk forever
N/C
Into the light
