Dear God - Avenged Sevenfold


[Intro]
 F-C-Dm-Am-B-F-C x2
F C Dm Am
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
B 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
B 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
B 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
B F
But I left her when I found her
C
And now I wish I’d stayed
B C
‘Cause I’m lonely and I’m tired
Dm C B
I’m missing you again oh no
F
Once again
F C Dm Am
There’s nothing here for me on this barren road
B 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
B 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
B 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
B F
I left her when I found her
C
And now I wish I’d stayed
B C
‘Cause I’m lonely and I’m tired
Dm C B
I’m missing you again oh no
F
Once again
Dm  B F
Some search, never finding a way
Dm  B F
Before long, they waste away
Dm  B F
I found you, something told me to stay
Dm  B 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
B F C

when I’m much too far away
F C Dm C

C
And now I wish I’d stayed
B C

Dm C B
I’m missing you again oh no
F
Once again
