Beautiful Door
Thornton/Davis
Beautiful Door
INTRO: C G Am G F
CG
Maybe I'm crazy, maybe I'm blind
AmGF
'Cause I can't understand the kinda mind
CG
That kills for God, or money, or the land
AmGF
It just seems odd to take that kinda stand
Some on the east side, some on the west
Who think that somehow their way is best
But there are some there in the middle
Whose lives have come to mean so little
CHORUS:
EmAm
You can preach all you want to
EmF
And make up forever more
AmF
I know you want to walk into another world
CGC
But I don't see no beautiful door
I can't help myself, I like this place
And leaving's not a thing I want to face
But those who wanna go, knock yourselves out
Just don't take those who don't care about
Your power dreams and your golden gates
'Cause I hear their screams as you deal their fates
You'll never kill this world, but I am afraid
That you'll take away those you say God made
CHORUS
AmF
I know you want to walk into another world
CGC
But I don't see no beautiful door
AmF
You say you want to talk about a better world
CGC
But you've closed that beautiful door
