Verse 1:
Riff 1
Test this gold for its worth is the same as testing me
Riff 1                        Riff 2
And the fire burns easily today
Riff 1
The net is the good that is left after the metal is refined
Riff 1
As I melt, look at what I've got and
A
Seperate it all from what I need

Chorus 1:
Bm          D                  A
  I'll take anything, anything genuine
Bm              D            E
Looking up from where I went I could take whatever I get
Bm          D                  A        Bm - C
  I'll take anything, anything genuine

Verse 2:
Riff 2
More interesting is my faith than the fear of what I'll miss
Riff 2                              Riff 1
And those things are temporary anyway
Riff 2
Still on this side getting fit for a faith that's been tried
Riff 2
And I smile more believably while
A
Getting just enough to know I need

Chorus 2:
Bm          D                  A
  I'll take anything, anything genuine
Bm              D             E
Looking up from where I went, I could take whatever I get
Bm        D                          A
  Falling from Your hands or falling from Your lips
Bm                   D                E
As long as it's from You, I know that I can take it, I can take it
