[E]Quicksand, [B]my heart is sinking 
[C#m]I try to run but I [A]can?t stop thinking 
[E]I?m climbin? walls, [B]I?m on the ceilin? 
[C#m]It?s gonna take a [A]miracle to heal me [E ? B ? C#m ? A]

[E]I?m starin? down [B]into the quarry 
[C#m]I see a stone for [A]every sorry

Let gravity [B]disappear 
I?m tired of [C#m]fallin, fallin, fallin 
From the [A]weight of fear 
Come and lift [E]me up 
Into the [B]clean and clear 
I?m [C#m]waitin? on you Jesus in the [A]water here 
So [C]come and [D]wash me clean [E ? B ? C#m ? A]

[E]The sky is red, there?s [B]blood on my hands 
[C#m]I can?t deny, I?m [A]guilty where I stand 
[E]The verdict?s in, I [B]hear them shoutin? 
[C#m]Send me a river to [A]drown this mountain [E ? B ? C#m ? A]

Wash me clean... 
Let it wash me, let is wash me, let it wash me clean 

(Repeat Chorus)
