[Intro – acoustic guitar and warm electric guitar playing the main motif, slow dusty groove, subtle organ] Verse 1 The night leans heavy on the highway Neon bleeding through the rain Every promise sounds like thunder But the truth walks out in chains People praying in the shadows While the band keeps playing on Everybody’s chasing mercy But nobody knows where it’s gone Pre-Chorus Is there anyone listening tonight Beyond the noise and the fraud? Chorus For the love of God Tell me what we've done Every road we're walking Leads us to the gun For the love of God Is there something left to save We're building shining kingdoms On the edges of the grave [Instrumental – melodic guitar motif with subtle organ] Verse 2 Every preacher sells salvation Every saint becomes a brand Truth is buried under headlines Written by a trembling hand We keep dancing on the fault line Like the ground will never break But the silence in the distance Sounds like something ’bout to wake Pre-Chorus Is there anyone listening tonight Beyond the noise and the fraud? Chorus For the love of God Tell me what we've done Every road we're walking Leads us to the gun For the love of God Is there something left to save We're building shining kingdoms On the edges of the grave [Bridge – instruments drop down, piano and steel guitar] Bridge Maybe heaven closed the curtains Maybe angels lost the key Maybe we're the final warning Of what we used to be [Guitar Solo – emotional melodic solo, bluesy phrasing] Final Chorus For the love of God Can you hear us now Standing in the ashes Of a broken sacred vow For the love of God Send a little spark Before we lose the meaning Of a light inside the dark [Outro – acoustic guitar, organ and distant harmonica] For the love of God… For the love of God…
