Verse 1 (Just play the intro): Sometimes I believe all the lies so I can do the things I despise And everyday I am swayed by whatever is on my mind I hear it all depends on my faith so I'm feeling precarious now The only problem I have with these mysteries is they're so mysterious Prechorus 1:

C#m     Bsus                        E
    And like a consumer I've been thinking

                 A
If I could just get a bit more

C#m             Bsus                 E
    More than my fifteen minutes of faith

         A         (A)
Then I'd be secure

Chorus:

     E             A             C#m      Bsus   A
My faith is like shifting sand, swayed by every wave

     E             A                 C#m  Bsus  A
My faith is like shifting sand, so I stand on grace

Verse 2 (just play the intro again): I begged you for some proof for my Thomas eyes to see A slitherous staff, a leprous hand, and lions resting lazily Prechorus 2:

C#m                   Bsus
    A glimpse of your backside in glory

        E                     A
and this soaked altar is going ablazed

C#m         Bsus               E
    But you know I've seen so much

           A            (A)
And I explained it away

Bridge:

Bsus                                 A
Waters rose as my doubt reigned, my sand castle faith slipped away

Bsus                                  A                      (A)
Found myself standing on your grace, It's been there all the time

Tag:

A
I stand on grace

And that's all of it. It's a really nice song. Feel free to feedback. Cheers, Conde Monte Cristo
