xI love this song, but I'm not very musically inclined, so I had to sit and ponder for a
to realize that it's in the key of G#. You know what that means, kids! Capo on 1!
Capo 1
There's a little riff he plays--in the acoustic version at least, I like that one
top of the G# (G with capo) and C# (C with capo). Here's how it goes:
e|------3----------------------3---------------------------------------------|
B|------3----------------------3---------------------------------------------|
G|------0----------------------0---------------------------------------------|
D|------0-------------0--------2---------------------------------------------|
A|------2-------0--2------3~---3---------------------------------------------|
E|--3~--3----3---------------------------------------------------------------|
(and I copied the lyrics off of a lyric site, so if they're wrong, capitalized or
incorrectly, or misspelled... rawr!! Not my fault! (: )
The progression is the same throughout, but I'll chord it all for ya anyways.
G C
calmer than the sky
D
far away so blue
C G
land of living God
C
grant your peace on earth
D
we can feel you move
C
and cannot stay the same
the winds are blowing strong
G (into chorus)
God of heaven come
(chorus:)
G C
breathe peace
D
breathe your peace on us
C
so we might breathe you deep
G C
breathe peace
D
breathe your peace on us
C
land of the living God
verse 2
G C
if we are in the way
D
move us to the side
C
God forgive our wrongs
G
rest your hands on us
C
all the world is yours
D
let us not forget
C
it was you who bore the cross
G
God of comfort breathe
(chorus)
Enjoy! Awaken the dawn!
God Bless,
Stephen T
