Is This All There Is?
Em B C G
G Em Bm G
I was alone and terrified by the midnight in my soul,
G Em Am D
By the burning bush and the blushing bride on the night I lost control,
Bm G D
I said, "mister, let me ask you (while these last few take their toll),
G B C G
Is this all there is, is this all there is, is this all there is to know?"
Em B C G
G Em Bm G
"I road out on the howling wind and slept out on the shore,
G Em Am D
I walked along the road of sin and knocked on heaven's door,
Bm G D
But I have no way of knowing what I am going toward,
G B C G
Is this all there is, is this all there is, is this all there my Lord?"
G Em Bm G
"I loved a fair young woman in the springtime of my year,
G Em Am D
But that was all so long ago and far away from here,
Bm G D
And I recall the last thing was her asking through a tear,
G B C G
Is this all there is, is this all there is, is this all there is my dear?"
Em B C G
G Em Bm G
"When Noah walked on dry land he drank his fill of wine,
G Em Am D
It gave him blood shot eyes and it strangled up his mind,
Bm G D
How could that thing happen to the father of mankind?
G B C G
Is this all there is, is this all there is, is this all there is to find?"
Em B C G
G Em Bm G
So I cried out my question, but the lesson was to be,
G Em Am D
For him to give his blessing as we parted company,
Bm G D
And for late into the evening me to sing this melody,
G B C G
Is this all there is, is this all there is, is this all there is for me?
Em B C G
