Jars of Clay is a popular Christian alternative rock group formed while the band members attended Greenville College in Greenville, Illinois, United States in 1992. The group's sound has varied over the years as the band has experimented with pop, folk, rock, trip-hop, gospel, and hymnsong. Their self-titled album featured layered acoustic guitars over programmed trip-hop beats. The song "Flood" was the band's biggest crossover hit, and it hit #37 on the Billboard Hot 100 as well as #12 on the Modern Rock chart.

Jars of Clay acoustic-duo where they use two acoustics, and sometimes even an electric, which are played by Stephen and Matt...I didn?t have time to write the full tab to this (actually, I?m pretty lazy :P ) so I?m just giving the actual chords they use on the song, minus a capo... sounds more like the actual thing....check it out...=) ~GOD BLESS~

Verse 1: (plucking) A For those under the clouds C#mED Staring up in awesome wonder A As tears come slowly down C#mED (F#) I?m reaching up a needful hand
Chorus: (Strum) BAC#m You are my eyes when I cannot see BAC#m You are my voice, see, sing through me BAC#mF#m You are my strength in weakness be
