Avenged Sevenfold – Dear God

Avenged Sevenfold – Dear God

Intro:  F-C-Dm-Am-Bb-F-C   x2

 F        C             Dm                 Am

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line

Bb                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

      Bb                  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

    Bb                      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

       Bb               F

But I left her when I found her

    C

And now I wish I'd stayed

            Bb             C

’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired

      Am          Dm  C  Bb

I'm missing you again oh no

           F

Once again

F                C          Dm              Am

There's nothing here for me on this barren road

        Bb                         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

Bb                 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

     Bb                        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

   Bb               F

I left her when I found her

    C        

And now I wish I'd stayed

           Bb              C

’Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired

       Am         Dm   C  Bb

I'm missing you again oh no

          F

Once again

Dm     Am     Bb               F

Some search, never finding a way

Dm      Am  Bb             F

Before long, they waste away

Dm      Am  Bb                      F

I found you, something told me to stay

Dm    Am  Bb               F

I gave in, to selfish ways

Gm                         C

And how I miss someone to hold

when hope begins to fade...

F         C             Dm                 Am

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line

I'm missing you again oh no

            F

Once again
