Artist: John Mark McMillan
Song: Tongues of Fire
Capo 2
C
The nights we spoke with tongues of fire
F
The days we walked out on the wire
Am G F
We were young and we were not afraid
C
The angels whispered in our ears
F
To tell us what the hilltop hears
Am G F
Beholden to the promises we made
Am G
When we were young and we were not afraid
Interlude: C - F - Am - G
C
River waters moved inside
F
Our bodies like the ocean tide
Am G F
The spirit swam the hallows of our veins
C
The years they roared like waves down on
F
The rocky shores we stand upon
Am G F
And beat against our banks with iron rage
Am G C
When we were young and we were not afraid
F Am G
We can still push up against those pillars
F Am G
We can light those foxes tails ablaze
F Am G
Nighttime still pushes up against the sun
F Am G
Where we grow young and we are not afraid
C F Am
And you, you gotta find your way back home
G
Out of the woods
C F
And you, you don’t have to hold your own
Am G
You gotta find your way back home
F
Out of the woods
F
They’re gonna smoke you out
F
They’re gonna find you out
C
Out of the woods
Outro: C - F - Am - G - C
