Verse 1
(A minor) I'm coming to the cross again
The (F major) place where all the sin
and shame of (C major) what I do
Is squarely (G major) placed on you
The (A minor) pressure's more
than I can take
I've (C major) (F major) tried to walk in my own strength
(C major) I lay it down before your (G major) thorny crown
(A minor) I've tried so hard to be someone
That (F major) (Csus4) you'd be proud (F major) to call your son
To (C major) earn the love I know (G major) I don't deserve
(A minor) Yet when I think I'm standing tall
(C major) The greater height, (F major) the bigger fall
(C major) Now all I see is my (G major) futility
But when (F major) you touch me
(C major) I feel (G major) the burden slipping down again
(A minor) And when (F major) you touch me (C major)
Can't stop (G major) the tears
from falling down like (A minor) rain
I feel the shame of shallowness
The (F major) kind of measured holiness
Yes, (Csus4) that seems to (C major) fit,
the life (G major) I want to live
(A minor) How much of this is wooden straw?
(F major) I want to work for something
more (C major) than piety, respectab (G major) ility
But when you touch (F major) me (C major)
I feel (G major) the burden slipping down again
(A minor) And when (F major) you touch me, (C major)
can't stop (G major) the tears from falling
down like (A minor) rain (F major) (C major) (G major) (A minor)
na -na -na -na -n (F major) a na -na -na -na -na -na (C major) -na -na
-na -na -na -n (G major) a -na -na -na -na -na -and
when you (F major) touch me (C major)
I feel (G major) the burden slipping down again
(A minor) and when (F major) you touch me (C major)
Can't stop (G major) the tears from falling
down like rain (A minor)
When the words cut like a knife
(F major) And harsh rejection haunts my life
I tell (C major) my self
This was (G major) the pain you felt
(A minor) You walked this road a thousand times
(F major) The victim of the cruelest crimes
(C major) and left for dead by every (G major) friend you had
(A minor) And when the accusations came
(F major) and you refused to play their game
(C major) no words of hate to set (G major) the record straight
(A minor) And when they taunted at the cross
if (F major) you are God then save yourself
you (C major) set your face to free (G major) this fallen race
So when you touch (F major) me, (C major)
I feel (G major) the burden slipping down again
(A minor) And when (F major) you touch me, (C major)
can't stop (G major) the tears from
falling down like rain
Why (A minor) don't (F major) you touch me
I (C major) feel (G major) the burden slipping
down again (A minor)
Why don't (F major) you touch me (C major)
Can't stop (G major) the tears from
falling down like break
(A minor)
