Psalm 139:13-16
 F5                    C5
[ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ]

Verse 1:

 F5  G5              C5
[ / / / It took the hand of God Almighty

To part the waters of the sea
        C5
But it only took one little lie
                    C5
To separate you and me
            F5                     C5
Oh, we are not as strong as we think we are


Verse 2:
F5   G5           C5
         And they say that one day Joshua
                                  C5
Made the sun stand still in the sky
     C5                                    C5
But I can't even keep these thoughts of you from passing by
           F5           F5
Oh, we are  not  as strong
F5  F5           C5
         As we think   we are


Chorus:
G5  C5          G5                          F5             C5
       We are frail, we are fearfully and wonderfully made
                    G5
Forged in the fires   of human passion
                 F5                 C5
Choking on the fumes of selfish rage
          G5       A5
And with these our hells and our heavens
        F5
So few inches apart
F5             C5  D5
   We must be aw- flly small,
                        G5           G5
And not as strong as we think we are

Verse 3:
And the Master said their faith was
Gonna make them mountains move
But me, I tremble like a hill on a fault line
Just at the thought of how I lost you
Oh, we are not as strong as we think we are

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:
D5
    And if you make me laugh,
       G5
I know      I could make you like me
C2(no3)                           C5   F5
        'Cause when I laugh I can  be  a lot of fun
D5                                  G5     
   But when we can't do that I know      that it is fright'ning
       C2(no3)                           C5
What I  don't  know is why we can't hold  on,
Am2         G5
  We can't hold on.

Repeat Verse 1:
It took the hand of God Almighty
To part the waters of the sea
But it only took one little lie
To separate you and me
Oh, we are not as strong as we think we are

Verse 4:
When you love you walk on the water,
Just don't stumble on the waves.
We all want to go there somethin' awful,
But to stand there it takes some grace,
'Cause oh, we are not as strong
As we think we are

G5   C5           F5
      No, we are not as strong
F5  F5           C5
         As we think we are.
  G5 C5      F5          F5  F5      C5          C5  C5
