         G              D               G            G
There's more that rises in the morning than the sun

D/F#        Em           Em         D        C
More that shines in the night than just the moon

         Am                 Dsus  D         G   D/F# Em
There's more than just this fire here that keeps me warm

      Asus            A                Dsus D
In a shelter that is larger than this room

            G              D               G         G
There's a loyalty that's deeper than mere sentiment

D/F#     Em              Em        D      C
A music higher than the songs that I can sing

Am              Dsus      D             G D/F# Em
  The stuff of earth competes for the allegiance

      Asus         A               Dsus    D
I owe only to the giver of all good things
Chorus:
          G           C             Em         Asus      A       Dsus D Dsus D
So if I stand let me stand on the promise that you will pull me through

          Am           C            Em              Dsus   D     G   C Em D
And if I can't let me fall on the grace that first brought me to you

      G            C          Em           Asus    A        Dsus D Dsus D
If I sing let me sing for the joy that has born in me these songs

          Am         C       Em          Dsus    D       G   C  Em D
But if I weep let it be as a man who is longing for his home
Verse 2:
         G               C                G             G
There's more that dances on the prairies than the wind

D/F#       Em            Em    D        C
More that pulses in the ocean than the tide

Am                       Dsus   D            G   D/F#    Em
  There's a love that is fiercer than the love between friends

      Asus           A               Dsus           D
More gently than a mother's when her baby's at her side

            G              D               G         G
There's a loyalty that's deeper than mere sentiment

D/F#     Em              Em        D      C
A music higher than the songs that I can sing

Am              Dsus      D             G D/F# Em
  The stuff of earth competes for the allegiance

      Asus         A                 Dsus    D
I owe only to the giver of all good things
