I hope and pray that they come true

He found God

In a parking lot, and you did not
G5     D5
I,       I headed for the coastalry

Verse 2
Same as verse 1

All across the Eastern Board

You look so elegantly bored now 
Totally at ease with it all, yeah 

Whilst you were drunk oh you let it all slip 
I hope and pray that it's okay 

Chorus 2
Same as chorus 1

He found God 
In a Wiltshire field, whilst you did not

Regions of mind 
To see what I'd find 

But I do understand why they're looking at you 
As if you ever really cared

He found God 
In a Wiltshire field, and you did not

Regions of mind 
To see what I'd find
