Hi, this is my first try! I think its nearly right.
Have fun!!!

AmI'm PG/Beter van der HCold
AmI'm 6G/B8 years oCld
AmI doG/Bubt some quCestions G/Bhave incCreased 
In G/B42 yCears of bG/Being a pCriest 
AmI'm G/Bat the eCnd of my life 
AmI'm not sG/Bure if I'm Cgonna survive 
AmI oG/Bften Cdon't know wG/Bhat to Csay 
When I G/Btalk to CHim, G/Bwhen I pCray 
In reply I receive 
Only silence, no relieve 
I've waited in vain for a little advice 
from that great voice in ethereal skies
Once I was revolutionary 
A devoted mercenary 
A gifted student in God's hands 
Now I'm old and sick of his demands 
I tried to be honest and good 
Did my job the best I could 
But I always stayed that average man 
Right in the spot where I began 
During the grieve with which I've dealt 
Spent three decades since I've felt 
...                                                  F  
The certainty I so adored 'bout the existence of the Lord
I've seen enCough, that's wGhy I knFow
God left this pClace, long lGong time aFgo
I'll give him to my perish 
Things I don't have myself but cherish 
And namely love and charity 
Mostly purpose that's what sets you free 
So I'm where the metaphores 
Are not comforting anymore 
I think I'm almost done with my search 
Got old so fast even in my church 
But feels as if I'm kept out 
Some sort of secret about 
The meaning of live sometimes 
Can't fail to notice these are mediocre types
I've seen enough, that's why I know 
God left this place, long long time ago 
I've seen enough, that's why I know 
God left this place, long long time ago
...and so on

When I talk to Him, when I pray

In reply I receive

Only silence, no relieve

I've waited in vain for a little advice

from that great voice in ethereal skies

Once I was revolutionary

A devoted mercenary

A gifted student in God's hands

Now I'm old and sick of his demands

I tried to be honest and good

Did my job the best I could

But I always stayed that average man

Right in the spot where I began

During the grieve with which I've dealt

Spent three decades since I've felt

...

The certainty I so adored 'bout the existence of the Lord

God left this place, long long time ago

I'll give him to my perish

Things I don't have myself but cherish

And namely love and charity

Mostly purpose that's what sets you free

So I'm where the metaphores

Are not comforting anymore

I think I'm almost done with my search

Got old so fast even in my church

But feels as if I'm kept out

Some sort of secret about

The meaning of live sometimes

Can't fail to notice these are mediocre types

I've seen enough, that's why I know

God left this place, long long time ago

I've seen enough, that's why I know
