Matthew West – Stop The World (Guitar)

G
The T.V. is talking, the telephone's ringing

D
The lights are all on and the radio's screaming

C                                                   G
A million distractions are stealing my heart from You

G
I'm tired and empty, this life is relentless

D
It weakens my knees and it breaks my defenses

C                                                     G
It's wearing me down and I'm desperate to hear from You

G                 G
Stop the world, I wanna get out

C                  C
I need an escape away from this crowd

        D        C         G
Just to hear You speak to me

G
I need to be still before I make a move

     D
And I need to be humble with nothing to prove

     C
And I need Your Word to show me the truth

  G
I need time, precious time

G
Stop the world, I wanna get out

C
I need an escape away from this crowd

        D        C          G
Just to hear You speak to me

G
Stop the world, I'm ready to listen

C                                              D
Show me a sign, just give me a vision of Heaven

           C         G
That I can hold on to

G
Stop the world, I need some time with You

G
Before I can find my voice

          C
I need to hear Your voice

              D               C
Above all the senseless noise

G
Stop the world, I wanna get out

 C
I need an escape away from this crowd

        D                   C
Just to hear You, I need to hear Your Voice

G
Stop the world, I'm ready to listen

C                                         D
Show me a sign, give me a vision of Heaven

          C          G
That I can hold on to

G
Stop the world, I need some time with You
