	        C   Em         D       G 
You fixed your eyes on us 
    Am         Em 
Your flesh and blood 
 Am            Em         D        C 
A sculpture of water and unsettled dust 
             Em     D      G 
And there was bad blood in us 

  Em 
We learned our lesson 
 Am              Em      D         G 
Genesis to the last generation 
   Em        D          G 
So we wrestle with it all 
    Am         Em 
The concept of grace 
    Am         Em 
The faithful concrete  
      D          C 
As it breaks our fall 
    Em           D        G 
Our questions are all the same 
 Am           Em 
A den of cold words 
 Am                 Em 
How they feel brand new 
        D              C 
Against different time frames 
 Am           Em 
A den of cold words  
        D              C 
Against different time frames 


   Em      C      G 
We know it all by heart 
    Am       Em 
The whole is greater 
        D           C 
Than the sum of its parts 
  Em     C      G 
We heard it all before 
    Am           Em 
And beauty there echoes 
    D            C 
The speck of our souls 
    Am           Em 
And beauty there echoes 
    D            C 
The speck of our souls 


    Em        D       G 
Like firewood burning bright 
       Am      Em 
In the dead of winter 
   Am        Em          D             C 
Now only the flicker can cling to this life 
   Em          D    G 
So we heard it over mass 
   Am        Em 
Is a faith a prediction 
Am       Em        D        C 
Wear our tradition until we collapse 
Am        Em          D          C 
And argue our bearings until we collapse 


   Am        D     G 
We study our story arcs 

 Am        Em 
Inherently good 
Am         Em     D              C 
Or were we broken right from the start' 
    Em       D      G 
Our hesitant fingerprints 
Am          Em 
Trace every mountain 
Am         Em 
Lace every valley  
D           C 
Until we're convinced 


   Em      C      G 
We know it all by heart 
      Am       Em 
Every blade of grass 
D         C 
Bears our mark 
     Em      C       G 
And the name will be engraved 
        Am           Em 
Oh it's just another word 
    D     C 
For being afraid 


   Em      C      G 
We know it all by heart 
     Am              Em 
The whole is so much greater  
         D          C 
Than the sum of its parts 
   Em        C     G 
We heard the truth before 
    Am           Em 
And beauty there echoes 
    D            C 
The speck of our souls 
    Am           Em 
And beauty there echoes 
    D            C 
The speck of our souls 
    Am           Em 
And beauty there echoes 
    D     Am     Em       C 
The speck of our souls
