The lead guitar in this song, the one playing the intricate picking, is
Derek's. It is tuned to DGDGAD (that's a drop Gsus2, btw). It is capoed
at the 2nd fret. I will not list that part, though, as Derek and I don't
want to encourage people to try the tuning; guitar strings are prone to
break at that, and we don't wanna cause that! :-( If you have questions,
though, mail me.
Cliff's part is a simpler part in D, on a standard tuned guitar capoed at
the 2nd fret (which means the song is really in A). I will list is in its
entirety.
Cliff: (, all chords relative to capo)
Intro:
(Alt. Tuned guitar)
Verse:
G G
There's a stirring deep within me
G G
Could it be my time has come
G G
When I'll se my gracious Savior
G G
Face to face when all is done
G G
Is that His voice I am hearing
G G
Come away my precious one
Bridge:
C D G G
Is He calling me?
C D G G G G
Is He calling me?
Chorus:
G D
I will rise up
Em C
Rise up
G C
And bow down
G C
And lay my crown
G D C
at His wounded feet
Interlude:
Strum G
-------
And then the entire song is repeated. I know it looks easy; it
is! If you just strum cleanly, and throw in a little picking on
the high strings, this song is really nice. It's as easy as that!
