Chords

C   Em         D       G
You fixed your eyes on us

    Am         Em
Your flesh and blood

 Am            Em         D        C
A sculpture of water and unsettled dust

             Em     D      G
And there was bad blood in us

  Em
We learned our lesson

 Am              Em      D         G
Genesis to the last generation

   Em        D          G
So we wrestle with it all

    Am         Em
The concept of grace

        Am         Em
And the faithful concrete

      D          C
As it breaks our fall

    Em           D        G
Our questions are all the same

 Am       Em
Identical words

 Am                 Em
How they feel brand new

        D              C
Against different time frames

 Am       Em
Identical words

        D              C
Against different time frames

   Em      C      G
We know it all by heart

    Am       Em
The whole is greater

        D           C
Than the sum of its parts

  Em     C      G
We heard it all before

   Am           Em
In beauty there echoes

  D            C
A speck of our source

   Am           Em
In beauty there echoes

  D            C
A speck of our source

    Em        D       G
Like firewood burning bright

       Am      Em
In the dead of winter

   Am       Em         D             C
By only the flicker we cling to this life

   Em        D    G
So we huddle over maps

   Am          Em
Is it faith or prediction

Am      Em        D        C
Will or tradition until we collapse

    Am        Em          D          C
And argue our bearings until we collapse

   Am        D     G
We study our story arcs

 Am        Em
Inherently good

Am         Em     D              C
Or were we broken right from the start?

    Em       D      G
Our hesitant fingerprints

Am          Em
Trace every mountain

Am         Em
Lace every valley

D           C
Until we’re convinced

   Em      C      G
We know it all by heart

      Am       Em
Every blade of grass

D         C
Bears our mark

     Em        C     G
In the name of being brave

            Am           Em
Though it’s just another word

    D     C
For being afraid

   Em      C      G
We know it all by heart

     Am              Em
The whole is so much greater

         D            C
Than the sum of these parts

   Em        C     G
We heard the truth before

   Am           Em
In beauty there echoes

  D            C
A speck of our source

   Am           Em
In beauty there echoes

  D            C
A speck of our source

   Am           Em
In beauty there echoes

  D     Am     Em       C
A speck of our source
