will salvation come
and wash away my pain?
for I was once a kid
with a pure and innocent soul
so deliver me from sin
and give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
a pure and innocent soul
and a pure and innocent soul
Give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
and a pure and innocent soul
and a pure and innocent soul

CAPO on the 6th fret.

INTRO:

VERSE:

I was gripped with a bit of fear

worried the one thing that I loved

back when I was just a kid

might now never be enough

that the body I was in

might belong to someone else

Someone kinder, Someone surer, Someone innocent, young and beautiful

someone purer, that's the one I know

Em Em

I was scratching at my skin hopin changes would begin

but what laid beneath was blood

Am C

well of course what the hell was I thinking of

won't you take me down to the creek wash away our sins of sleep

I feel so tired as though I might

not wake at all on the other side.... that's no way to go

CHORUS:

Oh my dear one

bathe me in your glow

cut out my lonely heart

and bury it in the snow

nothing really means nothing

is the saddest thing I know

so deliver me from sin

and give me rock and roll

ADDITIONAL LYRICS:

And in the morning there'll be hope

a solution

to fend off perils of the night

come on in, I'll be born again

born again as someone else

Someone kinder

Someone surer

Someone beautiful

someone purer

and when I am you'll know

Oh might one

the devil knows my name

will salvation come

and wash away my pain?

for I was once a kid

with a pure and innocent soul

so deliver me from sin

and give me rock and roll

Give me rock and roll

a pure and innocent soul

and a pure and innocent soul

Give me rock and roll

and a pure and innocent soul
