Intro 1
(G major) (Gsus2) (Asus4) (D major) (F sharp minor) (B minor) (D major) (A major) (D major) (G major)
Verse 1
I (D major)
have been building a (A major) fortress for my (F sharp minor) flesh (F sharp major)
I tried (B minor) to make it (A major) strong
(D major) so I (G major) wouldn't be invaded
(B minor) Life (G major) (D major) that once (Asus4) flowed through (D major) me
so (A major) freely and so (F sharp major) fresh
is (B minor) stagnant now an (F sharp minor)
d fervent love has (A major) faded
In (G major) (A major) (F sharp minor) this prison of protection an (D major) d pride,
(G major)
I'm so (E major) lonely,
I'm the only one inside. (A major) (B flatdim)
(F sharp major) How (B minor) could I be so foolish
after all (G major) you've been to me?
Help (F sharp minor) me cast aside these (B minor) chains
of my (F sharp minor) self -sufficiency. (B minor) Give
(Esus4) me back the trusting heart
(E major) that sets me (Asus4) free. (A major) (Asus4)
Though (E minor) you slay (D major) (G major) me, (D major)
though you (F sharp minor) lay me in the dust,
though (A major) you (B minor) slay me, still in (E minor) you,
I'll trust. (A major)
Though no (B minor) fruit be on the vine,
or (A major) ox in (D major) the stall,
I'll (G major) never regret (D major) giving (E minor) you my all.
(Asus4) just (A major) like Isaac (B flatdim) did to Abraham.
I'll (F sharp major) (B minor) trust (E minor) though you (D major) slay
me. (A major) (B minor) (C major) (Asus4)
I (D major) have been building a (A major) fortress for my flesh. (F sharp major)
I (B minor) tried to make it strong (D major)
so I (G major) wouldn't be invaded.
Verse 2
(G major)
Life (D major) that once flowed through me
so (A major) freely and so fresh (F sharp major)
Verse 3
is stagnant (B minor) now and (A major) firm,
and love has (G major) faded.
This (F sharp minor) prison of protection and (D major) pride (F sharp minor) (G major)
I'm so (E major) lonely, I'm the only one inside
(A major) (B flatdim) How could (B minor) I be so foolish?
After all (G major) you've been to me
Help (B minor) (G major) me (F sharp minor) cast aside these (B minor) chains
of my (F sharp minor) self -sufficiency. (B minor) Give me
(Esus4) back the trusting heart (E major)
that sets me free. (A major)
(Asus4) Though you slay (Dsus4) me, (D major)
though you lay (F sharp minor) me in the dust,
(D major) Though (F sharp minor) you slay (B minor) me,
still in (E minor) you, I'll trust. (Asus4)
Though (A major) no (Asus4) (B minor) fruit be on the vine
or ox (A major) in the stall,
I'll (D major) (G major) never regret (D major) giving (B minor)
(E minor) you my all, (Asus4)
Just (A major) like Isaac (B flatdim) did to Abraham,
(C sharpdim) (F sharp major) I'll (B minor) trust
(E minor) Though (D major) you (Dsus4) slay me (D major) (B minor)
Though you (A major) slay (G major) me (C major)
Oh, yes, (B minor) they do
