Garbage - Waiting for God: chords

Cm
Waiting for God to show up
We're keeping our fingers crossed
Can't seem to make sense of all of this madness
A#                      G
Waiting for God to show up
(On and on, on and on, on and on, on and on)

Cm
Look what they did to her boy
                          Gm
And nobody's blinking an eye
       Fm                     Cm
She's choking on sadness with no hope for justice
      A#                        G
Just look what they did to her boy
(On and on, on and on, on and on, on and on)

Did she get lost in the rains?
Or was there a lockdown at school?
Maybe the ice cracked and swallowed the house up
Or did they get caught in the fires?
(On and on, on and on, on and on, on and on)

Cm
All this talk of faith
                      G#
The power of all our prayers
 Fm                      Cm
Meanwhile, kids playin' video games
      A#                      Bdim7
They fall, but they don't get up
 G#            Fm
Who have we become?
 G#            Fm
What do we do now?
    A#             C#
The waving of our flags
     A#                     G
And tears won't bring them back

Waiting for God to show up
We're keeping our fingers crossed
Smiling at fireworks that light all our skies up
While black boys get shot in the back

Were they caught riding their bike?
Or guilty of walking alone?
I can't seem to make sense of all of this madness
Just waiting for God, keep waiting
for God to show up
(On and on, on and on, on and on, on and on)

Oh God, who art in heaven
(It goes on and on, on and on, on and on, on and on)
Who art in heaven, come
(It goes on and on, on and on, on and on, on and on)
Stand with us, may your will be done
(On and on, on and on, on and on, on and on)
On Earth as it is in heaven
