Tim Be Told - Humanity Chords

C#m B A E For the whole song. Note that the tuning is a half step down.

Verse 1:

       
We are slaves to these age-old afflictions

Fighting for control 'till we fell too far

Pursue desire, ignore our convictions

Only wretched souls beneath the weeping stars

Pre-Chorus 1:


We are calling out in the thick of the war
       
I am standing down to fight for something more
       
Would we cease these battles, let this love resound

Still too hard to find our common ground


Chorus:

         
There's a fire that stays bold and courageous
          
There's a light to light the way
          
There's a fire that stays bold and courageous
           
There's a light to light the way


Verse 2:

       
And we try so hard to heal our diseases

We break to pieces when our hope has failed
          
Some will live or die without a reason

Such are the seasons, still our faith prevails


Pre-Chorus 2:

        
We are lost and found and beg to be restored
        
We keep falling down, harder than before

But love will find a way to give us strength to carry on

Sorrow for now, but someday soon be gone


Chorus


Verse 3:


So we come and go, it's still a mystery

And we'll be history long before we find

All the secrets since now and forever

We hope for better on the other side


Bridge:


God, hear the cries of your people! (x4)


Chorus
