I Corinthians 1:19-25 [Intro] C Dm C Dm [Verse]
                       G
In the ebb and flow of living

      C                     Am
As we wander through the years

      Dm             G
We're told to listen to a voice

   Em                    Am
We can't hear with our ears

     F              G
They say to live by something

         Em                  Am
That you can't see with your eyes

         F      Em  Dm
Is there really any purpose

        C           G
To this foolish exercise?
[Chorus]
         Dm               G
Could it be You make Your presence known

   Em            Am
So often by Your absence?

         F                 G
Could it be that questions tell us more

     Em             Am
Than answers ever do?

G        F                 G             E
Could it be that You would really rather die

              Am
Than live without us?

         F      Em   Dm     C          G
Could it be the only answer that means anything

   C
Is You?
[Interlude] Dm C Dm [Verse]
                        G
In our words and in our silence

       C                Am
In our pride and in our shame

       Dm             G
To the genius and the scholar

       Em            Am
To the foolish and insane

       F                G
To the ones who care to seek You

       Em             Am
To the ones who never will

    F       Em   Dm     C    G
You are the only answer even still
[Chorus]
         Dm               G
Could it be You make Your presence known

   Em            Am
So often by Your absence?

         F                 G
Could it be that questions tell us more

     Em             Am
Than answers ever do?

G        F                 G             E
Could it be that You would really rather die

              Am
Than live without us?

         F      Em   Dm     C          G
Could it be the only answer that means anything

   C
Is You?
[Bridge]
       F                  C
It's a question you can't answer

          Dm         F
An answer you cannot express

         Bb            F
That the gentle Man of Sorrow

       Dm             C
Is the source of happiness

       F               C
You'll never solve the mystery

   Dm            F
Of this magnetic man

Bb           F               G  Am F#m
For you must believe to understand
[Chorus]
         Dm               G
Could it be You make Your presence known

   Em            Am
So often by Your absence?

         F                 G
Could it be that questions tell us more

     Em             Am
Than answers ever do?

G        F                 G             E
Could it be that You would really rather die

              Am
Than live without us?

         F      Em   Dm     C          G
Could it be the only answer that means anything

   C
Is You?

         F      Em   Dm     C          G
Could it be the only answer that means anything

   C
Is You?
