[Intro]

[Verse]
 
G                          Em
There's a void in my heart I can't seem to fill
G                                      Em
Been a parent, had three children and a big house on the hill
G                                  C                   G
Hundred dollar in my pocket and it didn't buy a thing
                                     C              G
Now there's a void in my heart and a hole in my dreams
 
 
[Verse]
 
G                                 Em
Well I poured miles of concrete and strung wire for telephones
G                                       Em
Dug ditches when I was a young boy when I first left my parents' home
G                                      C                     G
Sang my songs for millions of people, sang good and bad news
                                     C               G
Now there's a void in my heart and a fire at my fuse
 
 
[Verse]
 
G                                        Em
Well I did everything just like they said so I could find happiness
G                                       Em
Went to school and got a college degree and at my job I did my best
G                                 C                     G
As I sit here alone tonight I see a billion just like me
                                 C                 G
With a void in their hearts and running from eternity

[Verse]
 
G                            Em
There's a void in my heart I can't seem to fill
G
I do charity work when I believe in the cause
           Em
But in my soul it bothers me still
G                   C                G
Hey, Lord, well you made me like I am
         C                     G
Can You heal this restlessness?
 
Will there be a void in my heart
            C                   G
When they carry me out to rest?
 
G
