Verse
Am D G Am
Don't place your trust in foolish promises sworn
Am D Em Am
Nor cryptic message scrawled upon every wall
C G F Em
Street corner justice beware
Am F G Am G D E7
The spirit will find you always be fair
Am D G Am
The shallow verse once read means nothing at all
Am D Em Am
Nor fearful gestures made for instant recall
C G F Em
In lies your heart will not share
Am F G Am
The spirit inside used without care
[Chorus]
Em C D Em D
The spirit that guides you follow it through
Em C D Em D
To the spirit inside you always be true
G D C
You know you'll despair
Em C D Em C D Em
If the spirit inside is used without care
[Verse 2]
Am D G Am
The battlefield of glory pales into rust
Am D Em Am
The river flows much thicker fed by each thrust
C G F E
No beast alive does compare
Am F G Am G D E7
The spirit beside you everywhere
Am D G Am
Let not your head be turned by tainted reward
Am D Em C
And dreams of fortune won forever to hoard
C G F E
Your conscience could not repair
Am F G Am
The spirit inside used without care
[Interlude]
G Am C G
'Cause it will be shelter, help you how to decide
Am G Am C D
And it will be your helper should your loyalties divide
[Chorus]
Em C D Em D
The spirit that guides you follow it through
Em C D Em D
To the spirit inside you always be true

You know you'll despair
Em C D Em C D Em
If the spirit inside is used without care

Oh yeah, oh yeah
