 D#m               F   D#m
Lost in the darkness,
F                  D#m  F  D#m  F
  I fade from the light
 D#m                     F
Faith of my father, my brother,
              D#m
My Maker and Savior
F                             D#m  F  D#m  F
 Help me make it through the night
  D#m                 F  D#m
Blood on my conscience
F                D#m  F  D#m  F
  And murder in mind
D#m                     F
Out of the gloom I rise up from my tomb
     D#m
Into impending doom
F                     D#m  F  D#m  F
 Now my body is my shrine

Chorus:
B                                     A#
 The blood runs free, the rain turns red
             F#
Give me the wine,
     F         D# D# A A# D# D# A G#
You keep the bread
B                       A#
 The voices echo in my head
         F#     F       D# D# A
Is God alive or is God dead?
A#      D# D# A G#
Is God dead?


D#m  F    D#m  F

D#m             F  D#m
Rivers of evil,
F                   D#m   F B D#m   F
 Run through dying land
  D#m
Swimming in sorrow,
      F
They kill, steal, and borrow
      D#m
There is no tomorrow
F                          D#m   F B D#m   F
  For the sinners will be damned
D#m           F  D#m
Ashes to ashes
F                      D#m   F B D#m   F
  You cannot exhume a soul
 D#m                      F
Who do you trust when corruption
                  D#m
And lust creed of all the unjust
F                          D#m   F B D#m   F
  Leaves you empty and unwhole?


B                            C#
 When will this nightmare be over? Tell me
B                     C#
 When can I empty my head?
B                         C#
 Will someone tell me the answer?
               D#  F#  D#  D  D#  F#
Is God really dead?
    D#      D  D#  F#  D#  D
Is God really dead?

D#  F#  D#  D

    D#        F#    D#   D
To safeguard my philosophy
   D#     F#    D#    D
Until my dying breath
    D#       F#   D#   D
I transfer from reality
   D#   F#     D#   D
Into a living death
  D#    F#       D#  D
I empathize with enemies
   D#      F#       D#   D
Until the timing’s right
      D#      F#   D#     D
With God and Satan at my side
      D#       F#        D#   D
From darkness will come light

Chorus:
B                              A#
 I watch the rain as it turns red
              F#
Give me more wine
   F           D# D# A A# D# D# A G#
I don’t need bread
B                               A#
 These riddles that live in my head
           F#         F      D# D# A
I don’t believe that God is dead
A#      D# D# A G#
God is dead

        Nowhere to run,
D#   G#      D# D# D#
 Nowhere to hide
 G#           D#      D#
Wondering if we will meet
  D#         G#     D#  D#
Again on the other side
D#    G#            D#  D#
  Do you believe a word
D#         G#        D#  D#  D#
 What the Good Book said?
   G#            D#   D#   D#
Or is it just a holy fairytale
     G#     D#   D#  D#
And God is dead?
 G#     D#  D#  A#
God is dead,
 G#     D#  D#  A#
God is dead

Chorus:
B                            A#
 But still the voices in my head
             F#      F      D# D# A A# D# D# A G#
Are telling me that God is dead
B                                      A#
 The blood pours down, the rain turns red
           F#         F      D# D# A
I don’t believe that God is dead
 A#     D# D# A
God is dead,
 G#     D# D# A
God is dead,
 A#     D# D# A G#
God is dead
