i believe the whole song is this                                    C(5th)
                                                                               x54030
C   C(5th fret) Am x3

G  C Am



there was something in the sermon on the mount, something that i think he said
if i could just subdue my carnal lust. before i let the darkness in
and a foolish man will lose his house.yeah a foolish man will starve to death
and all these things i cant forget. as i let the light back in

oooohhhhhhh  i been waiting. waiting for the fire to die
cant believe that i forgot myself. now i'm 27 years behind
oooohhhhh  oooooohhhh cant believe that i forgot myself. now i'm 27 years behind

a child made a crown of thorns. from roses and some old woodsticks
they say that this is what he wore. they say he didn't raise a fist
well it must've been a sacred time that day up on the old mountain
when he gave up to the sick and poor. yeah he told em how their suppose to live

ooooohhhhh i've been waiting. waiting for the fire to die
cant believe that i forgot myself. now i'm 27 years behind
said i'm 27 years behind
ooohhhhhhhh  oooooooohhhhh cant believe that i forgot myself now i'm 27 years behind
said i'm 27 years behind.


now this is what i believe it is. i'm not sure if the C(5th) chord is right. 
but i know that's the root used
