INTRO-E, A9, E, A9, E, A9, E
C, D9sus4, E-repeat 4 times
i am [C#m]haunted by my love for com[C]parison
my fascin[G]ation with a single common theme[E]
and i am [C#m]hounded by the fear that i might be [C]losing it
[G]slipping from reality into [E]dream
[G]when my mind is muddled by the [D]way it seems to work
i start [Em]looking for just one connecting [C]Force
so[G]meone to assure me we that didn't [D]lose the war today
that the [Em]battle's General's still riding on his h[C]orse
in the [C#m]mornings when i pray, i've often [C]come to You with dreams
little [G]bits of power that i can't comprehe[E]nd
and [C#]sometimes i can keep my eyes un[C]closed for long enough
to see the [G]blowing of a distant steady W[E]ind
the [G]distance doesn't take too long for [D]You to cover it
and when You [Em]reach me, You just blow these things apa[C]rt
You [G]clear the crowd that's gathered 'round the [D]crisis of my soul
and [Em]whisper to my suffocating he[C]art [B7]
[E]And is the juice of the joints of the motion of li[A9]fe
[E]And is the love that is between God and his [A9]beautiful wife
[E]And has two hands and two feet and a [A9]long, lovely side
[E]And rose three days after he was [A9]crucified
REPEAT INTRO
so [C#m]You're the Force of gravity that i feel [C]pulling at my feet
you're the [G]Fuel at the center of the s[E]un
And, i[C#m]t's your Ghost that fills the atmosphere with [C]what we need to breathe
And, every[G]thing i've ever wondered, You're the [E]one
[G]both my hands are stained with blood
and both my [D]lips are stained with tears
from when i [Em]kissed the widow of the man i ki[C]lled
And, yet You're [G]asking me to swallow Your forgi[D]vness here today
You say the [Em]bond required for my pardon's been fulfi[C]lled [B7]
REPEAT THE CHORUS 2 TIMES AND THEN THE INTRO
