Avenged Sevenfold - Dear God

Intro: F-C-Dm-Am-B-F-C x2


F C Dm Am
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line

B F C
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find

F C Dm Am
While I recall all the words you spoke to me

B F
Can’t help but wish that I was there

C
Back where I’d love to be, oh yeah

F C Dm C
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is

B F
to hold her when I’m not around,

C
when I’m much too far away

F C Dm C
We all need that person who can be true to you

B F
But I left her when I found her

C
And now I wish I’d stayed

B C
‘Cause I’m lonely and I’m tired




* Dm C B
I’m missing you again oh no

F
Once again


F C Dm Am
There’s nothing here for me on this barren road


B F
There’s no one here while the city sleeps

C
and all the shops are closed

F C Dm Am
Can’t help but think of the times I’ve had with you

B F C
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah

F C Dm C
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is

B F
to hold her when I’m not around,

C
when I’m much too far away

F C Dm C
We all need that person who can be true to you

B F
I left her when I found her

C
And now I wish I’d stayed

B C
‘Cause I’m lonely and I’m tired




* Dm C B
I’m missing you again oh no

F
Once again

Dm * B F
Some search, never finding a way

Dm * B F
Before long, they waste away

Dm * B F
I found you, something told me to stay

Dm * B F
I gave in, to selfish ways

Gm C
And how I miss someone to hold

when hope begins to fade…
