Jacob <[email protected]>, Natasha Henke <[email protected]>, Greg Cootsona <[email protected]> Chords: A(9) x 0 2 2 0 0 B x 2 4 4 4 2 Bsus x 2 4 4 0 0 C#m x 4 6 6 5 4 C#m7 x 4 6 6 0 0 E 0 2 2 1 0 0 F#7sus x 9 11 11 0 0 F#7sus 2 4 4 4 0 0 ("Real" way: I like the previous version although that's not quite the way it sounds on the album)
A(9)       Bsus        A(9)
  I am the only one to blame for this

A(9)        Bsus             F#7sus
  Somehow it all ends up the same

A(9)           Bsus             C#m7
Soaring on the wings of selfish pride

                         A(9)    Bsus      F#7sus
I flew too high and like Icharus I collide

       C#m7            Bsus            A(9) A(9)
With a world I try so hard to leave behind

    C#m7         Bsus             A(9)         A(9)
To rid myself of all but love, to give and die

A(9)        Bsus         A(9)
  To turn away and not become

A(9)       Bsus                F#7sus
  Another nail to pierce the skin of one who loves

     A(9)            Bsus          C#m7
More deeply than the oceans, more abundant than the tears

     A(9)    Bsus             F#7sus
Of a world embracing every heartache

C#m7          Bsus        A(9) A(9)
Can I be the one to sacrifice

     C#m7              Bsus                A(9)      A(9)
Or grip the spear and watch the blood and water flow
[Chorus]
    C#m7
(To love you)

E                 A(9)
Take my world a - part
(To need you)
A(9)       C#m7
I am on my knees
(To love you)
E                 A(9)
Take my world a - part
(To need you)
A(9)         C#m7  Bsus A(9) A(9)
Broken on my knees

A(9)            Bsus         A(9)
  All said and done I stand alone

A(9)         Bsus       F#7sus
  Amongst remains of a life I should not own

    A(9)       Bsus    C#m7
It takes all I am to believe

       A(9)       Bsus      F#7sus
In the mercy that covers me

C#m7            Bsus            A(9) A(9)
Did you really have to die for me

      C#m7                               Bsus
All I am for all you are because what I need

                       A(9)
And what I believe are worlds apart

A(9)
     And I pray
[Chorus]
      C#m7  Bsus A(9) A(9)
On my knees

    C#m
I look beyond the empty cross

    B
Forgetting what my life has cost

   A(9)
I wipe away the crimson stains

    A(9)
And all the nails that still remain

 C#m
More and more I need you now

  B
I owe you more each passing hour

     A(9)
The battle between grace and pride

   A(9)
I gave up not so long ago

     C#m
So steal my heart and take the pain

     B
And wash the feet and cleanse my pride

A(9)
Take the selfish, take the weak

    A(9)
And all the things I cannot hide

 C#m
Take the beauty, take my tears

    B
My sinful soiled heart, make it pure

 A(9)
Take my world, it all is yours

 A(9)
Take it now, take it now

   C#m7                                    C#m7
To serve the ones that I despise       (To love you)

 E                                     E                 A(9)
Speak the words I can't deny           Take my world a - part
(To need you)
     A(9)
And watch the world I used to know

 A(9)                                  A(9)       C#m7
Fall to dust and blow away             I am on my knees
(To love you)
   C#m7
I look beyond the empty cross

    E                                  E                 A(9)
Forgetting what my life has cost       Take my world a - part
(To need you)
    A(9)
So wipe away the crimson stains

    A(9)                               A(9)         C#m7
And all the nails that still remain    Broken on my knees
(To need you)
      C#m7
And steal my heart and take the pain

     Bsus
And take the selfish, take the weak

    A(9)                                   A(9)
And all the things I cannot hide       (To need you)

A(9)
Take the beauty, take my tears

C#m7                                         C#m7
Take my world apart                    On my knees
(To need you)
Bsus
Take my world apart

    A(9)                                   A(9)
And I do pray                          (To need you)

    A(9)
And I pray, and I pray

C#m7 Bsus           A(9) A(9)                C#m7
     Take my world apart               On my knees

            A(9) Bsus A(9)
My worlds apart
