I Am for Real Lyrics

I Am For Real - The Whigs
AT the bottom there is a CHORDS version with LYRICS.
-If you have trouble with this, watch any live video on youtube.
just listen
INTRO - Remember, strumming isn't exact
Verse/Chorus -You don't really hear the strumming in the verse, but watch
the whigs play live and you can see it.
Also, the E could possibly be played like -79977.
BRIDGE (at 2:11)
(at 2:26- the last A is strummed until the chorus again)
BACK to C#m, E, B, A pattern after the bridge. Finish the song on A.
CHORDS VERSION:
INTRO: At the top of the tab or you can just strum C#m, E, B, A.
Killing for salvation he was sitting on his throne
And he thought "there's ways to reach these folks and teach them
what we've known?
Into the receiver came a voice unlike his kind,
they're not speaking the same language but there's common ground
he'll find
I don't need to kill anyone
To let them know I am for real
I don't need to walk in your backyard
To let you know just where I stand
So we're picking our pieces for the safety of our sons
He's not reaching for an agreement but he's reaching for our guns
He don't need to questions he don't need to compromise
There's no use in a conversation if there's nothing left to find
Cuz I respect your home and what you say
when you're speaking to me
And when it's time to look you in the eye
And you'll know where I'm coming from
Do you know where I'm coming from
ENDING: Back to the same strum pattern of C#m, E, B, A with the same timing
as the rest of the song. Play it until it ends. Ends on A.
