[Verse 1]
Am C F
Waking up in the middle of the night
Am C F
Someone you love is dying in your dreams
G F
Are?you?searching for the?sermon in the suicide?
G Am
Do you need?someone to tell you what it means?
[Verse 2]
Am C F
If you say that Jesus gives you peace of mind
Am C F
That's a good enough reason for me
G F
And if it really helps you get some sleep at night
G Am
I'd kill for a little of that peace
[Chorus]
F C
You talk about the truth like you are lying
G Am
I wonder who you think you're talking to
F C
Speaking of some things I've put behind me
G F
White lies, white Jesus and you
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
Am C F
Passing people on the street with picket signs
Am C F
Warning me of my impending doom
G F
If God's the one deciding if I make it in
G Am
What gives them the power to assume?
[Chorus]
F C
You talk about salvation like a birth right
G Am
You use it like it's some kind of excuse
F C
Speaking of some things I've put behind me
G F
White lies, white Jesus and you
[Interlude]

[Verse 4]
Am C F
I still hear the silence on the other line
Am C F
The consequence of telling you the truth
G F
The way I felt the knife turning into my side
G Am
When I heard you say the words "I'll pray for you"
[Chorus]
F C
You talk about forgiveness like a favor
G Am
Like it's something that you didn't have to do
F C
Speaking of some things I've put behind me
G F
White lies, white Jesus and you
[Outro]
G F
White lies, white Jesus and you
