Verse (0:05)
[Em]Spent my commission on
[G]Another diversion and I
[A]Don't got no meaning
[G]No purpose left at all
[Em]My pastor tells me that my
[G]My light is dimming and I
[A]Been too long drifting
[G]In an ocean
It's [Em]OK
You just need f[G]aith
Been looking for a[A]nswers
In the wrong pl[G]ace
[Em]But how do I tell him that the
[G]There's something missing and I
[A]Don't got no substance since you've gone
Prechorus (0:44)
[C]Every day I go d[A]own to the water
And I [Em]pray since you left me that w[G]ay
Oh L[C]ord, I'm trying to ke[A]ep my mind
On the g[Em]ood news that's in my heart
Chorus (1:03)
[E] [G]For the g[A]ood, good news
For the go[G]od, good news
[E] [G]For the g[A]ood, good news
For the go[G]od, good news
[E] [G]For the g[A]ood, good news
For the go[G]od, good news
[E] [G] [A]Since my baby left, my light refuses to shine
Like a bird without a song or a sun that will not ri[E]se
[E]
Verse (1:56)
Now [Em]I can make the eye
To an[G]yone that I desire
Throwing do[A]wn one for the lost boys
At the v[G]ery edge of town
Now [Em]I can spin a lie
That burns me[G] up all through the night
Cause I've got n[A]o one home to answer to
This [G]time
[Em]Every day is in repe[G]at
Like a carrier[A] bag stuck in a tr[G]ee
I us[Em]ed to find my answers in the go[G]spels of St John
But now I fi[A]nd them at the bottom of this shot glass
Prechorus (2:36)
[C]Every day I go d[A]own to the water
And I [Em]pray since you left me that wa[G]y
Oh L[C]ord, I'm trying to ke[A]ep my mind
On the g[Em]ood news that's in my heart
Chorus (2:55)
[E] [G]For the g[A]ood, good news
For the go[G]od, good news
[E] [G]For the g[A]ood, good news
For the go[G]od, good news
[E] [G]For the g[A]ood, good news
For the go[G]od, good news
[E] [G]For the g[A]ood, good news
For the go[G]od, good news
[E] [G] [A]Since my baby left, my light refuses to shine
Like a bird without a song or a sun that will not ri[E]se
