Dm When I die, put my ashes in the trash bag F I don’t care where they go C Don’t waste your money on my gravestone Gm I’m more concerned about my soul Dm Everybody’s gon’ die F Don’t everybody live though C Sometimes I look up to the sky Gm And wonder do You see us down here? Chorus: Dm F Oh Lord, oh Lord, do You see us down here? C Gm Oh Lord, oh Lord, do You see us down here? Dm F Oh Lord, oh Lord, do You see us down here? C Gm Oh Lord, oh Lord Listen! Yeah, everybody wants change Don't nobody wanna change though Don't nobody wanna pray 'Til they got something to pray fo' Know everybody's gon' die But don't everybody live though Sometimes I look up to the sky And wonder Chorus: "Do You see us down here, oh Lord?" (Oh Lord) (Yeah, yeah, yeah…) Oh Lord? (Oh Lord) Do You see us down here, oh Lord? (Oh Lord) Oh Lord? (Oh Lord) Do You see us down here, oh Lord? (Oh Lord, oh) Oh Lord? (Oh Lord) Do You see us down here, oh Lord? (Oh Lord, oh) Oh Lord? (Oh Lord, oh Lord…) It's easy to blame God but harder to fix things We look in the sky like, "Why ain't You listening?" Watchin' the news in our livin' rooms on the big screens And talkin' about, "If God's really real, then where is He?" (Is He, is He…) You see the same God that we're sayin' might not even exist Becomes real to us but only when we're dyin' in bed When you're healthy, it's like we don't really care for Him then "Leave me alone God. I'll call You when I need You again." (Need You again) Which is funny, everyone will sleep in the pews Then blame God for our problems like He's sleepin' on you We turn our backs on Him; what do you expect Him to do? It's hard to answer prayers when nobody's prayin' to you (Prayin' to you) I look around at this world we walk on (Walk on) It's a smack in the face; don't ever tell me there's no God (No God) And if there isn't, then what are we here for? And what are y'all doin' down there? I don't know, Lord, ah! Chorus: Oh Lord (Oh Lord) Oh Lord (Oh Lord) Do You see us? Do You see us? Do you see us down here, oh Lord? (Oh Lord) Oh Lord? (Oh Lord) Do You see us? Do You see us? Do you see us down here, oh Lord? (Oh Lord, oh) Oh Lord? (Oh Lord) Can You see us? Can You see us? Do you see us down here, oh Lord? (Oh Lord, oh) Oh Lord? (Oh Lord) (Oh) Can You see us? Can You see us? Do You see us down here, oh Lord? Do You see us down here, oh Lord? Can You see us down here, oh Lord? Can You see us down here, oh Lord? Oh Lord, oh Lord Can You see us? (Can You see us?) Can't You see us? (Can't You see us? Can't You see us?…) You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsC Dm F Gm Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
