Intro
[A2]
Verse 1
[A2]Old man Wrigley lived in that white house
[A2]Down the street where I grew up
[A]Mama used to send me over with things
[D]We struck a friendship up
[A]I spent a few long summers out on his old porch swing
Verse 2
[A2]Says he was in the war when in the navy
[A2]Lost his wife, lost his baby
[A]Broke down and asked him one time
[D]How ya keep from going crazy
[A]He said I'll see my wife and son in just a little while
[A]I asked him what he meant
[A2]He looked at me and smiled, said
Chorus
[A]I raise my hands, bow my head
[D]I'm finding more and more truth in the words written in red
[A2]They tell me that there's more to life than just what I can see
[A]Oh I [E]believe
Verse 3
[A2]Few years later I was off at college
[A2]Talkin' to mom on the phone one night
[A]Getting all caught up on the gossip
[D]The ins and outs of the small town life
[A2]She said oh by the way son, old man Wrigley's died
[A2]Later on that night, I laid there thinkin' back
[A]Thought 'bout a couple long-lost summers
[D]I didn't know whether to cry or laugh
[A]If there was ever anybody deserved a ticket to the other side
[A]It'd be that sweet old man who looked me in the eye, said
Chorus
[A]I raise my hands, bow my head
[D]I'm finding more and more truth in the words written in red
[A2]They tell me that there's more to life than just what I can see

[F#m]I can't quote the book
[F#m]The chapter or the verse
[F#m]You can't tell me it all ends
[F#m]In a slow ride in a hearse
[A2]You know I'm more and more convinced
[A2]The longer that I live
[A]Yeah, this can't be
[A]No, this can't be
[Asus4]No, this can't be all there is
Chorus
[A]When I raise my hands, bow my head
[D]I'm finding more and more truth in the words written in red

[A]I believe
