[Verse 1]
    C                   B
The evil fell from your pretty mouth

C
Wrapped in your classic voice

        B       C
Angelic in your syntax

                C
Demonic in your motive

     B           C
Your pretty eyes don't know

                                 C
That the water flowing from this well isn't fresh

                           B
Demolish all that sets you up

             F
Against your rising up

C
- Confessing all that's broken

    C
And watch the healing come

C
- Spread out your open hands

   C
Admit you've held them shut

C
- Turn all the way around

Bm         D
Be swept away by this
[Chorus 1]
F              E
- Time for surrender

Am
- Spread out your open hands

C
- And He will raise you up

F            E
- Confessing all that's broken

C
- And watch the healing come

Am
- Spread out your open hands

C
- Admit you've held them shut

F            Em    C
- Be swept away by this
[Verse 2]
C
- Your clothes are smooth and spotless

Dm                     C
- The air is putrid sewaged

                           C
Downwind of your pressed church clothes

C
- Your eyes are black and empty

C
- Your deeds are just for showing

C
- How big and bright your fake smile glows

F
- I see you moving and they're getting scared

C                            E
- Their eyes are focusing on something else

C
- You're staring at me and I stare at you

                          Dm
I rage against everything that you do
[Chorus 2]
F              E
- See them surrender

Am
- Spread out your open hands

C
- And he will raise you up

F            E
- Confessing all that's broken

C
- Look at the healing come

Am
- Spread out your open hands

C
- Admit you've held them shut

F            Em    C
- Be swept away by this
[Verse 3]
C                              D       C
- I see you moving and they're getting scared

                           D         C
Their eyes are focusing on something else

                           D        C
You're staring at me and I stare at you

                          D        C
I rage against everything that you do so

                            G
Get this hell out, get this hell out of my way

                          D       C
There's nothing more that you can say so

          C
Get this hell out, get this hell out

E
Out out of my way
[Chorus 3]
Am
- We spread our open hands

C
- And he is rising up

F           E
- Repairing all that's broken

C             G
- Look at the healing come

Am
- We spread our open hands

C
- Forgiveness holds them up

F               Em    C
- We're swept away by this
