We Are Not As Strong As We Think We Are Chords by Rich Mullins

[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [C] I lifted the hand of God Almighty to part the waters and the sea, but it only took one little
eye to separate you and me.
Oh, [F] we are not as strong as _ _ _ _ we [C] think we are.
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _
And they say one day,
Joshua, he made the sun stand still in the sky, but I can't even keep these thoughts of you
from passing by.
Oh, we [F] are not as strong _ as _ _ _ [C] we think we are.
_ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [C] We [G] are real.
We are beautifully
[F] and wonderfully [C] made, [G] forged in the fires of human passion, choking [F] on the fumes of selfish [C] rage.
[G] And with [Am] these, our hells and our heavens [F] so few inches apart, [C] we must [Dm] be awfully small and not
[C] as strong as we think we are.
_ _ [G] _ _
_ And [C] the master said that they were too gonna make the mountains move.
But me, I tremble like a hill on a fault line just at the thought of how I lost you.
Oh, [F] we are not
_ _ _ _ strong as _ [C] we think we are. _ _
[G] _ _ _ [C] Oh, we are [G] real.
We are fearfully [F] and wonderfully [C] made, forged [G] in the
fires of human passion, choking on [F] the fumes of [C] selfish rage.
[G] And with these, [Am] our hells and our
heavens so [F] few inches apart, we [C] must be [Dm] awfully small and not as [G] strong as we think we are.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm]
Did you make me laugh?
I [G] know I can [C] make you like me.
_ When I laugh, I can be [F] a lot of fun.
_ _ [Dm] _ And when we can't do that, I [G] know that it's frightening.
[C] What I don't know is why we can't hold on.
[Am] [G] We can't hold on. _
_ _ _ [B] _ [C] It took the hand of God Almighty
to part the waters and the sea. _
But it only took one little lie to separate you and me.
Oh, we [F] are
not as strong _ as _ _ _ _ we [C] think we are.
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] When you love, you walk on the water.
Just don't stumble on the
waves.
We all want to go there something awful.
But to stand there and take some grace.
So we [F] are
not as strong as _ _ _ _ [C] we think we are.
_ _ _ [G] _ _
[C] _ No, we [F] are not as strong as [C] _ _ [F] _ _ we [C] think we are.
