[B] [E]
When I was a boy each week, on Sunday we would go to church.
We'd pay [A] attention to the priest, as he [E] would read the holy word.
He'd consecrate the holy bread, and everyone [B] would kneel [C#] and bow.
[B] But today [A] the only difference is, [E] everything is holy now.
[C#] [C#m]
Everything, [B] everything, [E] everything is holy now.
When I was in Sunday school, we would learn about the time
when Moses [A] split the sea in two, and Jesus [E] made the water wine.
I remember feeling sad, that miracles don't happen [B] still.
But [E]
now I can't keep track, cause everything's a miracle.
Everything, [B] everything,
[E] [A] everything's a miracle.
[B] [E]
[B] [E] Wine from water [A] is not so small,
[E] but an even bigger miracle
[D]
is that anything [E] is here at all.
And so, the [A] challenging thing [E] becomes, not to [F#m] look for miracles,
[D]
but finding [C#] where there isn't one.
[E]
[B] Holy water [E] was rare at best, it barely wet my [C#] fingertips.
But now I [A] have to hold my [E] breath, like I'm swimming in a sea of air.
It used to be a world out there, heaven's second rate hanged me down.
[B] But now [E] I walk it with [A] a [E] reverent air, [A] cause [E] everything is holy now.
[Bm]
[E] [A] [B]
[E]
Read a question [A] in [E] child's space, say it's not a testament.
[D]
[E] That'd be very hard to say.
See another [A] new morning come, [E] say it's not a testament.
[D]
I'll tell [B] you that [C#] it can't be [E] done.
This morning I sat, I stood, and I saw a little red-winged [A] bird
[E] shining [A] like a burning bush.
He [E] was singing like a scripture verse.
It made me want to bow my head.
I remember when church let out, how [A] things have changed since then.
[B] Cause everything is [E]
holy now.
It used to be a world out there, heaven's second rate hanged me down.
But now I walk it [A] with a reverent air, [E] cause everything is holy now.
Everything, everything, everything [A] is holy [B] now.
[E]
That's it for Peter Mayer.
That thing has got a voice, it's so different.
It's me.
