God is really real

[Verse 1]: F C Dm

My dad can't get out of bed

G7

There's somethin' in his lungs

C7

I think that's what the doctor said

A# F

I gotta leave for Paris now

Dm C A#

My band goes on at 10

Gm C F A# F

And my dad can't get out of bed

 

[Verse 2]: F C Dm

The Earth is spinnin' like it always did

G7

'The New York Times' is publishin'

C7

Some real important thing

A# F

And each day when the world wakes up

Dm C A#

Our lawns will still be wet

Gm C F A# F C/E

And my dad can't get out of bed

 

[Chorus]:Bb F Am Dm

God is really real when you really, really need Him

A# F Am Dm

Karma just appears when you suddenly believe it

Gm C A# G7/B C A7/C# Dm C

Hear it loud and clear, just as long as it's con venient (Convenient)

A# F/A Gm A# A#m F A# F

Life's fuckin' long 'til it stops, and God's fuckin' fake 'til He's not

 

[Verse 3]: F C Dm

There's robots that are way too good at art

G7

And everybody's sad now

C7

And tryna get to Mars

A# F

Don't wanna hear your problems

Dm C A#

'Cause there's just one in my head

Gm C F A# F

And he can't get out of bed

 

[Verse 4]:F C Dm

What if we could break you out tonight?

G7

This kind of thing happens to other dads

C7

It don't happen to mine

A# F Dm C A#

I'll distract the doctors; we could sneak out with your meds

A# F Dm C A#

You could come along and be a roadie for the band

Gm C F A# F C/E

Come on, Dad, get out of bed

 

[Chorus]:Bb F Am Dm

God is really real when you really, really need Him

A# F Am Dm

Karma just appears when you suddenly believe it

Gm C A# G7/B C A7/C# Dm C

Hear it loud and clear, just as long as it's con venient (Convenient)

A# F/A Gm A# A#m F A# F

Life's fuckin' long 'til it stops, and God's fuckin' fake 'til He's not

 

[Verse 5]:F C Dm

Now it's late, I really gotta go

G7 C7

And we can't face our feelings, so we're makin' lots of jokes

A# F Dm C A#

And we won't cry about it, no, we'll be manly men

A# F Dm C A#

"I love you" sounds all corny, so I wrote this song instead

Gm C A7/C# Dm C

I'll sing it for you, Dad, when you get out of bed

Gm C F A# F

I'll sing for you when you're out of bed
