[INTRO] - with much muting
D D D D


[VERSE 1] - with much muting
                          Bm      Bm
And the pain falls like a curtain
                            G        G
On the things I once called certain
                      Bm                   A
And I have to say the words I fear the most
                  G G *
I just don?t know
                          Bm      Bm
And the questions without answers
                      G      G
Come and paralyze the dancer
                       Bm                   Aadd9
So I stand here on the stage afraid to move
          G             D/F#
Afraid to fall, oh, but fall I must
        Dm7/F                       Bbmaj9          Bbmaj7
On this truth that my life has been formed from the dust

God is God and I am not
      D/A            G       Fmaj9        Emmaj9  Em7
I can only see a part of the picture He?s paint - ing
D         A/C#            Bm
God is God    and I am man
        D/A             G
So I?ll never understand it all
    Fmaj7 Em7       D  D
For only  God is God


[VERSE 2] - with much muting
                      Bm      Bm
And the sky begins to thunder
                            G      G
And I?m filled with awe and wonder
                      Bm                    A
?Til the only burning question that remains
           G Gmaj7 A9/G
Is who am I
                Bm           Bm
Can I form a single mountain
                       G              G
Take the stars in hand and count them
                        Bm             A          G
Can I even take a breath without God giving it to me
      D/F#                  Dm7/F             
He is first and last before all that has been
       Bbmaj9          Bbmaj7
Beyond all   that will pass

So I?ll never understand it all

For only  God is God
