• Song:

    Stirring

  • Artist:

    Caedmon's Call

The lead guitar in this song, the one playing the intricate picking, is 
Derek's.  It is tuned to DGDGAD (that's a drop Gsus2, btw).  It is capoed 
at the 2nd fret.  I will not list that part, though, as Derek and I don't 
want to encourage people to try the tuning; guitar strings are prone to  
break at that, and we don't wanna cause that! :-(  If you have questions, 
though, mail me. 
 
Cliff's part is a simpler part in D, on a standard tuned guitar capoed at  
the 2nd fret (which means the song is really in A).  I will list is in its 
entirety. 
 
Cliff: (Capo 2, all chords relative to capo) 
 
Intro: 
  (Alt. Tuned guitar) 
 
Verse: 
   G5                  G5 
  There's a stirring deep within me 
   G5              G5 
  Could it be my time has come 
   G5               G5 
  When I'll se my gracious Savior 
   G5                 G5 
  Face to face when all is done 
   G5                G5 
  Is that His voice I am hearing   
   G5            G5 
  Come away my precious one 
 
Bridge: 
   C5     D5       G5    G5 
  Is He calling me? 
   C5     D5       G5    G5   G5   G5 
  Is He calling me? 
 
Chorus: 
   G5           D5 
  I will rise up 
   E5  C5 
  Rise up 
   G5       C5 
  And bow down 
   G5          C5 
  And lay my crown 
   G5      D5       C5 
  at His wounded feet 
 
Interlude: 
  Strum G5 
 

------- And then the entire song is repeated. I know it looks easy; it is! If you just strum cleanly, and throw in a little picking on the high strings, this song is really nice. It's as easy as that! ------------------ Chord Signatures: ------------------ Cliff: (all given relative to capo) E | -3---0---2---0--- B | -3---1---3---0--- G | -0---0---2---0--- D | -0---2---0---2--- A | -2---3---x---2--- e | -3--(3)--x---0--- G C D Em -------------------- Brett bdm@falcon.cy-net.net 3:11 AM 12/9/96 Lyrics printed by permission of Derek Webb and Aaron Tate.
