Intro:

Am   C   G   Dm   Am   C   G   Dm
Am   C   G   Dm   Am   C   G   Dm
Ah_______________   Ah__________ If I


Verse 1:

Dm     F          G      Am            Em7           F      G Asus2
If I find in myself desires nothing in this world can satisfy
       F          G      Am            Em7           F     
I can only conclude that I, I was not made for here
          F           G           Am        Em7           F    G  Am
If the flesh that I fight is at best only light and momentary
              F           G         Am           Em7          F     G Am
Then of course I'll feel nude when to where I'm destined I'm compared

Chorus:
       Am           C             G 
Speak to me in the light of the dawn
Dm                        Am C G Dm
Mercy comes with the morning
   Am                 C            G
I will sigh and with all creation groan 
      Dm                    Am    C   G   Dm
as I wait for hope to come for me

Verse 2:
      F                 G
Am I lost or just less found? 
          Am               Em7                 F        G Am
On the straight or on the roundabout of the wrong way?
           F                 G 
Is this a soul that stirs in me?
       Am               Em7          F  G Am
Is it breaking free, wanting to come alive?

Pre Chorus:
          Dm               F                Am9
'Cause my comfort would prefer for me to be numb
     Dm                  F            C             G
And avoid the impending birth of who I was born to become

Chorus:
       Am           C             G 
Speak to me in the light of the dawn
Dm                        Am C G Dm
Mercy comes with the morning
   Am                 C            G
I will sigh and with all creation groan 
      Dm                    Am    C   G   Dm
as I wait for hope to come for me

Bridge:
    C                        Am
For we, we are not long here
                   Dm                   G
Our time is but a breath, so we better breathe it
    C                 Am                   Dm              G
And I, I was made to live, I was made to love, I was made to know you
Am  C G    Dm
 Hope  is coming for me
Am  C G    Dm
 Hope  is coming for me
Am  C G    Dm
 Hope  is coming for me
Am  C G      Dm
 Hope, He's coming

Chorus:
       Am           C             G 
Speak to me in the light of the dawn
Dm                        Am C G Dm
Mercy comes with the morning
   Am                 C            G
I will sigh and with all creation groan 
      Dm                    Am    C   G   Dm
as I wait for hope to come for me      for me
  Am      C      G     Dm     Am    C    G    Dm
For me__________________________________________
Am      C      G     Dm     Am    C    G    Dm
  Ah_______________________  Ah_________________
