Intro: G 
 
G5 
This was a church 
A house full of prayer 
                D5 
It ain't that now 
I could tear it down 
G5 
There's thieves at the altar 
A snake wears the crown 
                D5 
Handing you coal 
Swearing it's gold 
 
Em 
Look what they've done to this house of love 
C 
It's too late to turn river to blood 
A                                              Em 
The saviors come and gone, we're all out of time 
C 
The devil's in the temple and he ain't no friend of mine 
 
G5 
I'd turn things around 
I would if I could 
                     D5 
Crash through the gates 
Break every chain 
G5 
Jail for the jealous 
Sing freedoms song 
            D5 
Amazing grace 
Burn down this place 
 
Refrão: 
 
Solo: C, A, Em, D 
 
Em                                     C   A 
Look what they've done to this house of love 
Em                                     C   A 
Look what they've done to this house of love 
Em 
The devil's in the temple and he's making a mess 
C 
Got the Mona Lisa, got his hands up her dress 
A 
The gun is in his hand but he ain't gonna confess 
Em 
He lies 
 
 
Em 
Look what they've done to this house of love 
C 
It's too late to turn river to blood 
A                                               Em 
The saviors come and gone, we're all out of time 
C                                               Em 
The devil's in the temple and he ain't no friend of mine 
C                                               Em 
The devil's in the temple and he ain't no friend of mine 
C                                               Em 
The devil's in the temple and he ain't no friend of mine
