Intro: D A G
D
When I was a boy each week on Sunday
A
We would go to church and pay attention to
G
The priest, he would read the
D
Holy word, and consecrate the holly bread
A
And everyone would kneel and bow
G
Today the only difference is
D
Everything is holy now
Bm. A
Everything, everything
G
Everything is holy now
D A G
D
When I was in Sunday school
A
We would learn about the time
G
Moses split the sea in two
D
Jesus made the water wine
D
And I remember feeling sad
A
That miracles don't happen still
G
But now I can't keep track
D
Cause everything's a miracle
Bm A
Everything, everything
G
Everything's a miracle
A G
Wine from water is not so small
Em
But an even better magic trick
C D
Is that anything is here at all
A G
So the challenging thing becomes
Em C
Not to look for miracles
A
But finding where there isn't one
D
When holy waters rare at best
A
It barely wet my fingertips
G
But now I have to hold my breath
D
Like I'm swimming in a sea of it
D
It use to be a world half there
A
Heavens second rate hand me down
G
But I walk it with a reverent air
D
Cause everything is holy now
Bm A
Everything, everything
G
Everything is holy now
A G
Read a questioning child's face
Em
And say it's not a testament
C D
That'd be very hard to say
A. G
See another new morning come
Em C
And say it's not a sacrament
A
I tell you that it can't be done
D
This morning, outside I stood
A
And saw a little red winged bird
G
Shining like a burning bush
D
Singing like a scripture verse
D
It made me want to bow my head
A
I remember when church let out
G
How things have changed since then
D
Everything is holy now
D
It used to be a world half there
A
Heavens second rate hand me down
G
But I walk it with a reverent air
D
Cause everything is holy now
Bm A
Everything, everything
G
Everything is holy now
