[Intro]
A Bm G Bm
A D G
[Verse 1]
A Bm We started out strong
But somewhere along
G Bm We lost our way A D Done things in Your name
I'm so ashamed
G D I don't have the words to say A Bm We've killed and destroyed
Stolen and blamed
G Bm All in Your name A D You told us to give
Told us to love
G D But we chose to take A Bm You laid down Your life
Put power aside
G Bm Showed us the Way and the Truth A D We roll into church
Open the Word
G D And forget that we're called to include
[Pre-Chorus]
A Bm Now, it's long overdue
But I can't dilute
G Bm What we seem to havе put on the shelf A D I can't speak for us all
But I gotta bеlieve
G D I'm speakin' for more than myself
When I say
[Chorus]
A Bm G Bm I'm sorry, I'm sorry A Bm G I'm sorry, so sorry A Bm G Bm I'm sorry, I'm sorry A Bm G I'm sorry, so sorry
[Verse 2]
A Bm We say that we're one
But we're broken up
G Bm By anything that can divide A D Our color o' skin
The clothes we're in
G D That valley's deep and wide A Bm We overlook the broken
The homeless
G Bm And discard the poor A D While we celebrate the rich and the beautiful G D With a wide-open door A Bm I'm sorry we're nothing like You G Bm You chose to bear a cross A D We choose to give You parts of us G D And rarely the parts that cost
[Pre-Chorus]
A Bm Now, it's long overdue
But I can't dilute
G Bm What we seem to havе put on the shelf A D I can't speak for us all
But I gotta bеlieve
G D I'm speakin' for more than myself
When I say
[Chorus]
A Bm G Bm I'm sorry, I'm sorry A Bm G I'm sorry, so sorry A Bm G Bm I'm sorry, I'm sorry A Bm G I'm sorry, so sorry
[Bridge]
A Bm Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up, Lord D G Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up A Bm Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up, Lord G Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up
[Chorus]
A Bm G Bm I'm sorry, I'm sorry A Bm G I'm sorry, so sorry A Bm G Bm I'm sorry, I'm sorry A Bm G I'm sorry, so sorry
[Bridge]
A Bm G Bm Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up A D G Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up, Lord A Bm G Bm Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up A D G Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up, Lord
[Outro]
A Bm Blessed are the poor in spirit G Bm For theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven A Blessed are they that mourn D For they shall be comforted G Blessed are the meek
For they shall inherit the Earth
A Bm G Bm Blessed are they which hunger and thirst after righteousness
For they shall be filled
A D Blessed are the merciful G For they shall obtain mercy
Blessed are the pure in heart
A Bm For they shall see God G Bm Blessed are the peacemakers A D For they shall be called the children of God G Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake A Bm For theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven G Bm A Blessed are ye when men shall revile you and persecute you D G And shall say all manner of evil against you falsely for My sake
