Kneeling in the darkness, [E] trying hard to pray
[Bm] But the words don't [F#m] come out easy

[E] To lead me to the truth
[C] And I know the tears you cried for me
[G] Like a forest sun
[D] Represent the years you've waited
[A] As they fall one by one
[C] All the shadows cast upon my
[G] I'm truly dead and gone
[D] You took this [E] heart of a broken man
[D] And you made it live
[E] [A] Until I look into [C#m] my father's eyes
