Intro: E B A
Verse 1
E
There was a day we held our breath
B
And felt the sting of bitter death
A E
When all our hopes were buried in the grave
E
Our eyes awake, our hearts were torn
B
Between our faith and what we knew
A E
Before our King was buried in the grave
Pre-Chorus
C#m
And grace was in the tension
B
Of everything we've lost
A
Standing empty handed
B
Shattered by the cross
G#m
All we have, all we had
A E
Was a promise like a thread
G#m
Holding us, keeping us
A E
Oh from fraying at the edge
G#m
All we knew, all we knew
C#m B A
Was You said You'd come again
E B E (C#m to bridge)
You'd rise up from the dead
(Repeat Verse/Pre-Chorus Chords)
Verse 2
There was a day we looked for proof
That you had risen from the tomb
And all our doubts began to roll away
We touched the scars upon your hands
You kept Your word, oh Son of Man
You buried death by taking on the grave
Pre-Chorus
You came here to save us
'Cause everything was lost
No longer empty handed
Clinging to the cross
(Repeat Chorus)
