Verse
C#m F# B C#m
Don't place your trust in foolish promises sworn
C#m F# G#m C#m
Nor cryptic message scrawled upon every wall
E B A G#m
Street corner justice beware
C#m A B C#m B F# G#7
The spirit will find you always be fair
C#m F# B C#m
The shallow verse once read means nothing at all
C#m F# G#m C#m
Nor fearful gestures made for instant recall
E B A G#m
In lies your heart will not share
C#m A B C#m
The spirit inside used without care
[Chorus]
G#m E F# G#m F#
The spirit that guides you follow it through
G#m E F# G#m F#
To the spirit inside you always be true
B F# E
You know you'll despair
G#m E F# G#m E F# G#m
If the spirit inside is used without care
[Verse 2]
C#m F# B C#m
The battlefield of glory pales into rust
C#m F# G#m C#m
The river flows much thicker fed by each thrust
E B A G#
No beast alive does compare
C#m A B C#m B F# G#7
The spirit beside you everywhere
C#m F# B C#m
Let not your head be turned by tainted reward
C#m F# G#m E
And dreams of fortune won forever to hoard
E B A G#
Your conscience could not repair
C#m A B C#m
The spirit inside used without care
[Interlude]
B C#m E B
'Cause it will be shelter, help you how to decide
C#m B C#m E F#
And it will be your helper should your loyalties divide
[Chorus]
G#m E F# G#m F#
The spirit that guides you follow it through
G#m E F# G#m F#
To the spirit inside you always be true
B F# E
You know you'll despair
G#m E F# G#m E F# G#m
If the spirit inside is used without care
[Guitar Solo]
G#m E F# G#m F# (x4)
[Chorus]

The spirit that guides you follow it through
G#m E F# G#m F#
To the spirit inside you always be true

You know you'll despair

If the spirit inside is used without care
[Outro]

Oh yeah, oh yeah

You know you'll despair
