THE RHYTHM OF THE SAINTS CHORDS

[Start]

[Intro]
C7 Bb7 Bb C7 Bb F7 Bb C7
                
C C7 C C7
     


[Verse]
   C7               
If I have weaknesses
      C7               
Don't let them blind me
   C                        Bb
Or camouflage all I am wary of
C7                    Bb                     
  I could be sailing on seizures of laughter
C                    C7                Am   C7
Or crawling out from under the heel of love  
   Bb         C                
Do my prayers remain unanswered
Bb                    C     
Like a beggar at your sleeve
Bb                      C     
Olodumare is smiling in heaven
C7                  Am        
Smiling in heaven I do believe


[Chorus]
C7          Bb           C7
  Reach in the darkness  
               Bb  
A reach in the dark
             C7      
Reach in the darkness
           Bb      
A reach in the dark
C7    Bb          C7             Bb   
  To overcome an obstacle or an enemy
C7          Bb                  F7   C7   
  To glide away from the razor or a knife
   Bb          F              Bb   
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy


[Inst]
                F                  Bb   C
To dominate the impossible in your life 


[Verse]
C7                                C     Bb         
  Always a stranger when strange isn't fashionable
    C7         C                         Bb  
And fashion is rich people waving at the door
C    C7               Bb          C      
 Or it's a dealer in drugs or in passion
                 Am                
Lies of a nature we've heard before
C7    Am Bb      C                
  Do my prayers remain unanswered
Bb                          
Like a beggar at your sleeve
C Bb                             
 Babaluaye spins on his crutches
C                     
Says Leave if you want
   C7       Am Am7   C7
If you want to leave  


[Chorus]
             C7      
Reach in the darkness
           C7      
A reach in the dark
             C        Bb
Reach in the darkness  
           Bb      
A reach in the dark
   Bb                              
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy
                                  C    
To glide away from the razor or a knife
   Bb                              
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy
   C                               C7  
To dominate the impossible in your life
C7                   
Reach in the darkness
               Bb  
A reach in the dark
             F       
Reach in the darkness
           C7      
A reach in the dark
   Bb                         C7   
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy
C             Bb                     C7  
 To dominate the impossible in your life
