Intro: D  A  G 

D 
When I was a boy each week on Sunday 
A 
We would go to church and pay attention to  
G 
The priest, he would read the 
D 
Holy word, and consecrate the holly bread 
             A 
And everyone would kneel and bow 
           G 
Today the only difference is 
              D 
Everything is holy now 
Bm.       A 
Everything, everything 
              G 
Everything is holy now 
D    A    G 
D 
When I was in Sunday school 
                 A 
We would learn about the time 
               G 
Moses split the sea in two 
              D 
Jesus made the water wine 
D 
And I remember feeling sad 
                     A 
That miracles don't happen still 
              G 
But now I can't keep track 
                   D 
Cause everything's a miracle 
        Bm     A 
Everything, everything 
          G 
Everything's a miracle 

A                    G 
Wine from water is not so small 
                   Em 
But an even better magic trick 
C                D 
Is that anything is here at all 
A                G 
So the challenging thing becomes 
                Em      C 
Not to look for miracles 
                      A 
But finding where there isn't one 

                 D 
When holy waters rare at best 
                 A 
It barely wet my fingertips 
                   G 
But now I have to hold my breath 
                    D 
Like I'm swimming in a sea of it 
                  D 
It use to be a world half there 
                     A 
Heavens second rate hand me down 
                           G 
But I walk it with a reverent air 
                  D 
Cause everything is holy now 
         Bm     A 
Everything, everything 
          G 
Everything is holy now 

A                 G 
Read a questioning child's face 
                  Em  
And say it's not a testament 
C              D 
That'd be very hard to say 
A.             G 
See another new morning come 
                  Em      C 
And say it's not a sacrament 
                     A 
I tell you that it can't be done 

              D 
This morning, outside I stood 
                  A 
And saw a little red winged bird 
                G 
Shining like a burning bush 
                D 
Singing like a scripture verse 
                D 
It made me want to bow my head 
                   A 
I remember when church let out 
                      G 
How things have changed since then 
              D 
Everything is holy now 
         D 
It used to be a world half there 
                      A 
Heavens second rate hand me down 
                         G 
But I walk it with a reverent air 
                     D 
Cause everything is holy now 
        Bm     A 
Everything, everything 
          G 
Everything is holy now
