F                                 Am
I've got my own moral compass to steer by
   F                                   A
A guiding star beats a spirit in the sky
    G                    C/E
And all the preaching voices
       F               G
Empty vessels ring so loud
         C/E             F
As they move among the crowd
 G                         C/E
Fools and thieves are well disguised
        F                  G
In the temple and market place
        C/E                D
In the temple and market place

D
Like a stone in the river
Against the floods of spring
                  Em
I will quietly resist
        G         Em D
I will quietly resist

Like the willows in the wind
Or the cliffs along the ocean
I will quietly resist
I will quietly resist

Chorus:
C
I don't have faith in faith
I don't believe in beliefs
A
You can call me faithless
Em
You can call me faithless
C
I still cling to hope
And I believe in love
            A
And that's faith enough for me
            Em
And that's faith enough for me

I've got my own spirit level for balance
To tell if my choice is leaning up or down
And all the shouting voices
Try to throw me off my course
Some by sermon, some by force
Fools and thieves are dangerous
In the temple and market place
In the temple and market place

Like a forest bows to winter
Beneath the deep white silence
I will quietly resist

Chorus:
I don't have faith in faith
I don't believe in beliefs
You can call me faithless
You can call me faithless
I still cling to hope
And I believe in love
And that's faith enough for me
And that's faith enough for me

Like a flower in the desert
That only blooms at night
I will quietly resist

Chorus:
I don't have faith in faith
I don't believe in beliefs
You can call me faithless
You can call me faithless
I still cling to hope
And I believe in love
And that's faith enough for me
And that's faith enough for me

And that's faith enough for me
