* = alternate between the regular triad and the slash chord
/ = slash chord (normal D triad with A as the bass note)

note: many small (virtually all?) intra-chord flourishes and single-note runs leading
into other chords use the notes on the second and fourth frets on the fourth string (E
and F#). In some cases, where a chord is labeled “D and D/A,” a flourish involving the
above mentioned notes is actually called for. It varies on a case by case basis.


*D and D/A             A                  G             *D and D/A
I was searching for something I could not describe

*D and D/A             A                   G            * D and D/A
So I stared at the sun till the tears filled my eyes

G                              Em       D              Bm
Well I thought I was empty so I paid the cost

D                        A          G               *D and D/A
But now that I’m found I miss being lost


*D and D/A             A                  G             *D and D/A
I opened my           heart and I    let Jesus in

*D and D/A                    A                 G            *D and D/A
With the promise that     I would be free of my sins

G                   Em              D              Bm
But I only felt guilty that he died on the cross

*D and D/A             A                  G               *D with flourish on frets 2 and 4: 4th string
Now that I’m           found I         miss being lost

*D and D/A             A                  G               Bm
Now that I’m           found I         miss being lost

*D and D/A             A                  G                *D and D/A
I don’t wanna          suffer and I don’t wanna die

*D and D/A             A                  G             *D and D/A
I want the clouds    parted in an endless,    blue sky

G                         Em9           D           Bm9
But someone up there has a different plan

*D and D/A         A          G              *D and D/A
Now that I’m      saved I wish I was damned

*D and D/A         A          G              *D and D/A
Now that I’m      saved I wish I was damned

*D and D/A         A          G              *D and D/A
Now that I’m      saved I wish I was damned

*D and D/A         A          G              Bm9
Now that I’m      saved I wish I was damned
