[Intro] D G D A [Verse 1]
      D                          G        D
It's dark and it's quiet in my house tonight

 D                        A
Babies are all gone to sleep

       D                 G       D
It's hard to imagine a better life

          Bm    A       D
Than the one I get to lead

         D                    G         D
I had a glass of wine but my mind is clear

        D                 A
These walls they talk to me

        D                      G        D
Don't blink an eye, you're a young man now

     Bm    A          D
But you won't always be
[Chorus]
     Bm
My blood and my bones

      G          D
My heart and my hands

     Bm                      A
They try to hold all of this in

          D                     G           D
But I'm running to you like a west Texas wind

         Bm      A       G          D
Singing God I need you, oh, how I need you

 Bm     A         D
God I need you again
[Verse 2]
        D                 G           D
I've learned to hide my fear in my bones

     D                        A
My body don't shake like the kids

           D                 G       D
But I'm easily scared and often confused

     Bm    A           D
I rarely know what I did

       D                      G          D
I've made mistakes and even worse than that

       D                    A
I've hurt the ones that I love

     D                   G         D
I wish that peace would find me here

          Bm    A      D
But it seldom ever does
[Chorus]
    Bm
My blood and my bones

     G            D
My heart and my hands

     Bm                       A
They try to hold all of this in

           D                     G         D
But I'm running to you like a west Texas wind

         Bm     A        G          D
Singing God I need you, oh, how I need you

  Bm      A      D
God I need you again
[Bridge]
  D                     G          D
I'm in the shadows of Heaven and Earth

   D                        A
Maybe they should be the same

          D               G         D
But my Earthly body is bound and conflicted

         Bm      A         D
And I'm left feeling the pain

       D                G    D
This house is not our only home

      D                       A
You can't protect love with stone

       D
God I know you can hear me

      G           D
So please come near me

      Bm      A             G
I'm ready to let the world go
[Chorus]
     Bm
My blood and my bones

     G             D
My heart and my hands

      Bm                       A
They try to hold all of this in

            D                    G           D
But I'm running to you like a west Texas wind

          Bm      A      G          D
Singing God I need you, oh, how I need you

  Bm      A      D
God I need you again
