G C Am Dsus4 D
[Verse]
G
It's raining in Houston
C
I got a silver mine and a couple good friends
Am Dsus4 D
And it's safe to say that things are better than last year
G
And I'm in my late twenties now
C
But I ain't got shit figured out
Am
I'ma gonna get in the car and head outta town
Dsus4 D
No clue how I got here
G C
And I got all these questions about standing out and fitting in
Am Dsus4 D
Loving God and loving man and who I really am
G
Used to have it all figured out
C
In who I was and what I'm about
Am
That all just came crashing down
Dsus4 D
Now I'm wondering
[Chorus]
C G
How hard can I love 'fore it's too much
Am C
If God's really real why's He outta touch
G
And I've been calling needing answers
D
I been praying to the sky
Am
Tell me if God is really real
C
Why do good people die
G
I don't know
D
I don't know
Am C
Oh oh oh, I don't know
[Verse]
G C
Will I wake up one day and my child's turned 18
Am
She spent her whole life on the road
Dsus4 D
And she's just as lost as me
G
Have I given her enough
C
Should we just settle down
Am
Buy a little piece of land
Dsus4 D
Put roots in this ground
G
How much money do I need
C
'Fore my whole heart turns to greed
Am
I'd like to have it all
Dsus4 D
But some people need it more than me
G
How about spending that time at home
C
That when my parents die I'll know
Am
Love them 'til their dying day
Dsus4 D
And it's time to let 'em go
[Pre-Chorus]
G
I don't know
C
I don't know
Am D
Oh oh oh, I don't know
[Chorus]
C G
How hard can I love 'fore it's too much
Am C
If God's really real why's He outta touch
G
And I've been calling needing answers
D
I been praying to the sky
Am
Tell me if God is really real
C
Why do good people die
G
I don't know
D
I don't know
Am C
Oh oh oh, I don't know
[Verse]
Am
And I'm still wondering
C G
If I'll ever find the one
'Cause baby I've been lonely
Dsus4 D
Things ain't looking up
Am
And I'm still wondering
G
If I still believe in love
I seen it all fall apart
Dsus4 D
And it don't look like fun
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
I don't know
C
I don't know
G D
Oh oh oh, I don't know
[Chorus]
C G
How hard can I love 'fore it's too much
Am C
If God's really real why's He outta touch
G
And I've been calling needing answers
D
I been praying to the sky
Am
Tell me if God is really real
C
Why do good people die
G
I don't know
D
I don't know
Am C
Oh oh oh, I don't know
[Outro]
G D Am C G
