[Intro]
Am  G  Em
F   G  Am
[Verse 1]
AmPeople keep sayin that GI'm a little short on Emmercy
FSay my god-forGsaken soul will Ambuy me things
AmFame and fortune Gpearly gates and Emsilver wings
FYeah I picked out curtains Gfor my place on Amgolden street
[Verse 2]
AmPeople been calling me Gsinner, been calling me Emwayward saint
FCaught a snag aGlong the path that Amthey call straight
AmLooked down and I Gsaw that i had Emlost my faith
FTurned my back on Gpromises I'd Amnever break
[Chorus] 
CThese Gdays, FI'm just trying to Dmfind out what love Ammeans
Find my Cplace within this Gcrazy scene
CThese Gdays, FI'm just trying to Dmfind out what love Ammeans
Find my Gplace within this Edream
[Verse 3]
AmPeople keep saying I'm Ggoin' to hell if EmI don’t change
FBut I sold my soul to GGod when i was Ambarely eight
AmAll of Jacob's Gladders couldn't Emrescue me
FAll because I Gbought that house on Amgolden street
[Verse 4]
AmBuilt a bridge beGtween our hearts but Emit was weak
FLittle did I Gknow it wouldn't Amhold my weight
AmNow I’m falllin' Gfast into a Emgreat ravine
FWonder when I Gland if I'll be Amon my feet
[Chorus] 
CThese Gdays, FI'm just trying to Dmfind out what love Ammeans
Find my Cplace within this Gcrazy scene
CThese Gdays, FI'm just trying to Dmfind out what love Ammeans
Find my Gplace within this Edream
[Bridge]
FCan you spare me, Efather?
FA moment of your Gtime
FWhy'd you hide the Eanswers
FIn between the Elines?
FLife has many Gcolors
FMore than black and Ewhite
FWhy do I have Equestions
FIf you're always Gright?
[Chorus] 
CThese Gdays, FI'm just trying to Dmfind out what love Ammeans
Find my Cplace within this Gcrazy scene
CThese Gdays, FI'm just trying to Dmfind out what love Ammeans
Find my Gplace within this Edream
