Chords

From the 2007 album ‘High’ (Base note only) (G G#)x8 (G G#)x4 N.C It was I that was lost, They that were searching, It was I that was weak, They had the power So I went with the others To the bus that was waiting, We drove out for miles To a place in the country,

       G            
We were ten to a room,

                  F
The windows don’t open,

       G             
We were woken for prayer

               F
At four in the morning,

       G               
We were wired with hunger,

             F                   G           
With energy crackling through the corridors,

             F
I could hear chanting.

(G F)x4

    G
The hall was lit with candles,

    G/B
And all the light was golden,

  Bb
I felt something bursting,

Something down inside me,

        G
We were singing out aloud 

      G/B
About God and love and healing,

Bb
Everything was moving

I’m on the floor kneeling,

    G
I am part of something,          }

                F                 }x4 
I am one of the chosen,          }

(Base note only) (G G#)x4

N.C
There is something in us all

That wants to surrender, To be guided through it all Like star eyed children,

      G
And I hated the world

                 G#
As I’ve come to know it,

        G
And they hate the world

                   G#
With just the same vengeance,

      G
And I, I wanted reasons

                       F
And they, they gave me reasons,

      G
And I, I wanted purpose

                       F
And they, they gave me purpose,

    G
And here on the inside

                   F
All the lights are blazing,

    G
The view of the old world,

                     F
Is dull and grey and joyless,

G                                   F
Let it burn in side me, let it burn inside me,

G                                   F
Let it burn in side me, let it burn inside me,

         Em
We’re the holy fools,

We are the fearless,

         Bb
We’re the holy fools,

We are the fearless.
