Verse
Bm E A Bm
Don't place your trust in foolish promises sworn
Bm E F#m Bm
Nor cryptic message scrawled upon every wall
D A G F#m
Street corner justice beware
Bm G A Bm A E F#7
The spirit will find you always be fair
Bm E A Bm
The shallow verse once read means nothing at all
Bm E F#m Bm
Nor fearful gestures made for instant recall
D A G F#m
In lies your heart will not share
Bm G A Bm
The spirit inside used without care
[Chorus]
F#m D E F#m E
The spirit that guides you follow it through
F#m D E F#m E
To the spirit inside you always be true
A E D
You know you'll despair
F#m D E F#m D E F#m
If the spirit inside is used without care
[Verse 2]
Bm E A Bm
The battlefield of glory pales into rust
Bm E F#m Bm
The river flows much thicker fed by each thrust
D A G F#
No beast alive does compare
Bm G A Bm A E F#7
The spirit beside you everywhere
Bm E A Bm
Let not your head be turned by tainted reward
Bm E F#m D
And dreams of fortune won forever to hoard
D A G F#
Your conscience could not repair
Bm G A Bm
The spirit inside used without care
[Interlude]
A Bm D A
'Cause it will be shelter, help you how to decide
Bm A Bm D E
And it will be your helper should your loyalties divide
[Chorus]

The spirit that guides you follow it through

You know you'll despair

If the spirit inside is used without care
