Capo 2
[Intro]
EmGD EmGD
[Verse 1]
C/ED/F#Em Here I am, Lord and I'm drowning GC/E In Your sea of forgetfulness D/F#Em The chains of yesterday surround me GC/E I yearn for peace and rest DEm I don't want to end up where You found me G/BCD/F#C And it echoes in my mind, keeps me awake tonight
[Verse 2]
C/ED/F#Em I know You've cast my sin as far as GC/E As the east is from the west D/F#Em And I stand before You now as GC/E As though I've never sinned DEmG/B But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away CD/F# From You leaving me this way C Jesus can You show me just how
[Chorus]
EmGD Far the east is from the west Am 'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been C Rising up in me again EmGD In the arms of Your mercy I find rest AmG/BC You know just how far the east is from the west (D) on chorus repeat From one scarred hand to the other
[Instrumental]
EmDEmD
[Verse 3]
C/ED/F#Em I start the day, the war begins GC/E Endless reminding of my sin D/F#Em Time and time again Your truth is drowned out GC/E By the storm I'm in DEmG/B Today I feel like I'm just one mistake away CD/F# From You leaving me this way C Jesus can You show me just how
[Chorus]
EmGD Far the east is from the west Am 'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been C Rising up in me again EmGD In the arms of Your mercy I find rest AmG/BC You know just how far the east is from the west (D) on chorus repeat From one scarred hand to the other
[Bridge]
GD/F# I know You've washed me white Em Turn my darkness into light G/C I need Your peace to get me through CG To get me through this night Bm I can't live by what I feel Em About the truth Your work reveals C And I'm not holding on to You EmD But You're holding on to me EmD You're holding on to me
[Chorus] (watch out, chords are different!)
GD/F# Jesus, You know just how far the east is from the west Em I don't have to see the man I've been G/CC Come rising up in me again GD In the arms of Your mercy I find rest (mercy I find rest) AmG/BC You know just how far the east is from the west
From one scarred hand to the other
[Ending]
EmDEmD (Just how far, the east is from the west, just how far) Em From one scarred hand to the other DEmC (You know just how far, the east is from the west, just how far)
From one scarred hand to the other
An awesome song from a great band. I'll be honest and admit that I'm really uncertain about the G/C chord in both places. I'm open to suggestions. You're welcome to email me at
