        D   Em                 F#                 G

        Em                         A                                  D-Em F#-G
Never been much on religion but I sure enough would like to hear the call
        D    Em             F#                 G

D-Em F#-G
I heard the chior singin' something about good will toward man and even sleepin in heavanly
peace
D                A          \\\\F#                  B
Stopped by to see St. Thomas    on a cold and dreary New York afternoon
Em                                   A
Something in the air was Oh so rare, I don't know what it was but I know that it's still right
there
D     Em                 F#              G
Scared lordy lord I'm shakin I'm terrified
        Em                         A                                D-Em F#-G
Never been much on religion but I sure enough just fell down on my knees


Livin in confusion, searching for truth that I never found

I needed something to really believe

Looked toward the heaven, On a dark and stormy winter afternoon

Something in the air was oh so rare, I'm not really sure what it was but I know for sure that
it's still right there

Scared, Hey,ey,ey,ey,ey,ey I'm terrified

Never been much on religion but I sure enough just fell down on my knees

Ohhhhohhhohh

And I'm scared you know I'm shakin' I'm laying awake thinking about it now I'm terrified

Never been much on religion but I sure enough would like to hear the call

Come on now gimmee a sign you're listening to me,

You hear me talking, you hear me crying it's confusing to me lord I'm terrified

Never been much on religion but I sure enough just fell down on my knees

Ohhhhohhhohh


The trick to this song is; some parts sound better played in first position and others you'll
need to play up the fretboard
to get the best sound. If you can get a copy of it on tape or CD you'll see what I mean.
