[F#]
[C#m]

[C#m] Sleep free, [F#m] only these [C#] three words to write it down
That is walking on hallowed ground but it's my duty
I'm a missionary

[F#m] [C#m]
[C#] [G#m] [E] [D#]
[F#m] [F#] [A#]
here is my [C#m] confession, it's an obsession
[B] [A#] I'm a believer, [F#] [D] [C#m] and a warm receiver
And [F#]
I've made my decision, [C#m]
this is religion
[F#]
I'm one of the people [C#m] [F#]
trying to sell their story
[G#] [A] All the loves exerting unglory
[Am] [C#]
Sleep free, [C#m] [F#]

[A] [C#m]
[C#] [C#m] Spreading [D#]
[F#m] [F#]
the news around [C#m] the world
Taking the words to [F#] boys and girls
I'm a club believer, [C#] and [C#m] a warm receiver
[F#]
And I will go down on [C#m] my knees when I see beauty and [F#] all doubts
I'm one of the [C#m] people trying [F#]
to sell their story
[A] All the loves exerting unglory
[C#]
[C#m] Sleep free, [F#]
only [A] [C#] these three words [C#m] to write it [F#] down
