MercyMe – The Attic (Guitar)

Am        D                   Am         Gm G#m Am D Am Bm A#m
Ten years old, you're walking down the aisle

    Am      D            Am      Gm G#m   Am D Am Bm A#m
You let God in and it's totally in style

      G                                            Am D Am Bm A#m
Where years have come and gone and so did your courage

        Am      D            Am         Gm G#m     Am D Am Bm A#m
You put God in a box and you threw Him in storage

         D
When you can't find what you're looking for

         D
And your heart's been screaming for more and more

         Am
When you search so long you can't even stand

        Am
And the way back home is the Father's hand

     D
Your heart says less, your head says more

    D
And in between is where you're torn

Em
Trace your steps to where you were before, yeah

    Am     D             Am         Gm G#m Am D Am Bm A#m
The right idea was Yours from page one

Am          D         Am         Gm G#m Am D Am Bm A#m
But through time Your vision has gone

     G                                                          Am      D Am Bm A#m
Well God took the back seat while your flesh started driving, yes He did

    Am          D              Am          Gm G#m   Am D Am Bm A#m
The world feels fine while the Spirit Man is dying

         D
When you can't find what you're looking for

         D
And your heart's been screaming for more and more

         Am
When you search so long you can't even stand

        Am
And the way back home is the Father's hand

     D
Your heart says less, your head says more

    D
And in between is where you're torn

Em
Trace your steps to where you were before, oh, oh

Am                   Dm
   Lord, please take over

            Am         Dm
Won't you deliver us?

Am                Dm
   How we long to get back

       Am              Dm
To the way that it was

        Am          Dm
To the way that it was

       Am           Dm
To the way that it was, now, now!

         D
When you can't find what you're looking for

         D
And your heart's been screaming for more and more

         Am
When you search so long you can't even stand

        Am
And the way back home is the Father's hand

     D
Your heart says less, your head says more

    D
And in between is where you're torn

Em                                    Am
Trace your steps to where you were before

D      Am    Gm    G#m  Am      D Am Bm A#m
Oh, oh yeah, trace your steps now
