[Intro]
F# C# G# A#m
F# C# G# A#m
[Verse]
F# C#
When I was a kid
G# A#m
I used to buy and sell gravity
F# C#
I knew how to fly
G# A#m
And I would teach you for a fee
F# C#
Broke every window
G# A#m
In my hotel heart
F# C#
When I was only years old
G# A#m
but 1 years scarred
F# C#
And I'd hear the same voice
G# A#m
Echo in my mind
F# C#
Said Son you got an angel
G# A#m
To chase the devil at night
Yeah
[Chorus]
F# C#
When I was a kid
G# A#m
My grandfather was a preacher
F# C#
He'd talk about God
G# A#m
Yeah he was something like a teacher
F# C#
He said God only helps those
G# A#m
Who learn to help themselves
F# C#
He was a million miles from a million dollars
G# A#m
But you could never spend his wealth
[Verse 2]
F# C#
I took a little faith
G# A#m
And put it in a parking lot
F# C#
I drove to a strange town
G# A#m
Full of have and have nots
F# C#
And as I walked through
G# A#m
that storybook life
F# C#
I was looking for an angel
G# A#m
to chase the devil at night
[Mute]
Oh Oh Oh
[Chorus]
F# C#
When I was a kid
G# A#m
My grandfather was a preacher
F# C#
He'd talk about God
G# A#m
Yeah he was something like a teacher
F# C#
He said God only helps those
G# A#m
Who learn to help themselves
F# C#
He was a million miles from a million dollars
G# A#m
But you could never spend his wealth

G# A#m
Put your hands up and hands down
