E        Asus2   E
You're using My Name in vain
         G#m       Asus2             E   Emaj7
For your power and for your personal gain
           G#m               Asus2               E   Emaj7
For your advantage, for your wealth and for your fame
       Asus2    Bsus4   E
You're using My Name in vain


[Verse 1]
    Asus2                      Bsus4
The wealthy got their place of prominence at your feasts
        G#m                                A
On your committees and on your boards of directors
              A                  Bsus4
How can you defend your cultural dominance
                                   G#m                       A
But not the least of these in your cities and in your public sectors?


[Chorus]
       A        Bsus4  B
You're using My Name
       Asus2    Bsus4   E
You're using My Name in vain


[Verse 2]
            G#m                   Asus2
Your public prayers I abhor in My ears
            Bsus4        B
They have become a strain
              G#m                    Asus2
Because you ignore the poor in their fears
               Bsus4        B
And thе exiled in their pain
             G#m                              Asus2
Bеcause you adore and you defend the lustful, pride
                               Bsus4
The bribes and the lies of the arrogant
B                             G#m
You've joined that tribe and aligned your brand
           Asus2                     Bsus4            B
With the unkind in the land, it's not Me you represent


[Chorus]
        Asus2    Bsus4   E
You are using My Name in vain


[Verse 3]
         Asus2                           Bsus4
For your rights and privilege, you trade prophetic witness
     G#m                               A
For economy and prosperity, you have betrayed me with your kisses
     A                              Bsus4
When justice is in famine, and when righteousness is starved
               G#m                      A
You bow to the alters of mammon and the monuments of mars
   A                                Bsus4
My eyes are filled with fire, in my hand I hold seven stars
             G#m                               A
You pledge allegiance to this land, but not My country from afar
              A                                   Bsus4
You pound new nails into My hands, you're ripping open up My scars
             C#m7                                 G#m/D#
With My Name plastered on your billboards and the bumpers of your cars
        A                             Bsus4
On your bios, city halls, and on your paper currency
               G#m
But you really trust in bombs and barriers
         A
For your comfort and security


[Chorus]
        A        Bsus4  B
You are using My Name
       A        Bsus4  B
You're using My Name
       A        Bsus4   A   E/G#  F#m  E
You're using My Name in vain
