Capo 1
Am
Once I stood alone so proud held myself above the crowd
G Am
now i am low on the ground.
Am
From here i look around to see what avenues belong to me
G Am
I can't tell what ive found.
Am G F
Now what would You have me do
Am G F
i ask you please?
Am G Em C
I wait to hear.
Am
The mother, and the matador, the mystic, all were here before,
G Am
like me, to stare You down.
Am
You appear without a face, disappear, but leave your trace,
G Am
i feel your unseen frown.
Am G F
Now what would you have me do
Am G F
I ask you please?
Am G Em
i wait to hear
C
your voice,
F
the word,
G
you say
Em C
i wait to see your sign
G F G
would i
Em
obey?
Am
I look for you in heathered moor, the desert, and the ocean floor
G Am
how low does one heart go.
Am
looking for your fingerprints i find them in coincidence,
G Am
and make my faith to grow.
Am
Forgive me all my blindnesses my weakness and unkindnesses
G Am
as yet unbending still.
Am
struggling so hard to see my fist against eternity
G Am
and will you break my will?
Am G F
Now what would you have me do
Am G F
i ask you please?
Am G Em
i wait to hear
C
your voice,
F
the word
G
you say
Em C
i wait to see your sign
G F G
could i
Em
obey?
