Tuning: Standard Tuning - E A D G B E
Intro - (same as Chorus) A - F#m - D - A (4 times)
verse 1:
D A E F#m
I've heard it said that music heals the soul.
D A
But I have sung a thousand songs
E
and they never made me whole.
D A E F#m
Until I joined the holy Chorus that started long ago
D
And though he carried me awhile
E D A
there's still so many miles to go.
A F#m D A
Help this broken man when the road is long.
A F#m D A
Write in me a melody so I can sing redemption songs.
A F#m
Because when push comes to shove it will never be enough
D A
To make it on my own
D A
So help this broken man’s soul
E A
So help this broken man’s soul.
verse 2:
D A E F#m
Now I've sung these words so many times before
D A
And I've never felt anything at all
E
And I wanted something more.
D A
Then it came like rushing waters to
E F#m
These dry and dusty bones
D E D A
Your life-giving Word picked me up and took me home.
(Chorus)
(Instrumental BRIDGE)
E - D - A (4 times)
(Chorus with only percussion from this point on)
Because when push comes to shove it will never be enough
To make it on my own
So help this broken man’s soul
So help this broken man’s soul. <----- hold last note
