Capo on 2nd fret This is one of my favorite songs out of all Amy has ever recorded. **** (or see below for no capo chords) Intro: G Verse 1: G They were the sweetest words I'd ever heard C My heart could barely take it in Em Like water offered to the lips C Of a tired and thirsty man G Cause it's a tangled web I've woven C I don't know all the reasons Em But it amazes me to wake up C To Your mercy every morning Pre-Chorus: D So I'm standing here and spinning 'round C G In the fields of freedom D And I'm still alive and reaching out C D And I can feel the healing (Cause you say...) G G9 G G9 Come on out come on out, come on out come on out Em C Out in the open G G9 G G9 Come on out come on out, come on out come on out Em C Into the light D C Em <--(G in chorus 2&3) There is no jury, there is no judge D Ready and waiting G Are the steady arms of love Verse 2: For the sake of never making waves I Kept my secrets to myself And no one ever really knew the Darker shadows of my heart But I will be a witness That there's nothing in me dark enough The power of forgiveness Cannot rescue from the deep REPEAT PRE-CHORUS REPEAT CHORUS Instrumental: (same chords as 1st have of chorus) G G9 G G9 Em C (x2) C REPEAT PRE-CHORUS REPEAT CHORUS (x2)
