Tabbed by: GuitarMan147   (Anyway... Back in sanity)

Hey everyone, it's been a long time since I did a tab of a song and this is
the on I've decided to do. It's a great song, covered by this guy who does
loads of other songs as well.

Basically, for almost the whole thing, you keep your pinkie and ring fingers
on 3rd fret, 1st and 2nd strings (pinkie on 1st, ring on 2nd), and then play
with them held down. However, there are some parts where it goes from Dsus4
to D where you will have to change this (or you could stay on D/F#, but it
sounds better and the same as the actual song when you do the Dsus4 to D
change).

All in all, a great song, with a great meaning behind it. Again, there are
some timings where you will need to listen to the song to figure it out to
sound right, but apart from that, it's a doddle!

Any problems, message me or leave a comment, and don't forget to check out
some of my other tabs.

Thanks, hope it helps :)

If God had a name, what would it be?

   Em      Cadd9   G              D/F#
In all his glory - what would you ask?
           Em       Cadd9      G   D/F#
If you had just one question?

Just a slob like one of us?

And would you want to see it there, if seeing meant that you would 
Em        Cadd9  G              D/F#          
Have to believe, in things like heaven and in 
Em         Cadd9      G          D/F#
Jesus, the saints and all of the prophets
