Every Grain Of Sand

| D | G | D | G | | D | G | D | G | D G D G In the time of my confession, in the hour of my deepest need D G A Asus4 A When the pool of tears beneath my feet flood every newborn seed D G D G There's a dyin' voice within me reaching out somewhere, D G A Asus4 A Toiling in the danger and in the morals of despair. A A7 D A Don't have the inclination to look back on any mistake, A A7 D | A G | Like Cain, I now behold this chain of events that I must break. D G D G In the fury of the moment I can see the Master's hand D G A A7sus4 | D | % | In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand. D G D G Oh, the flowers of indulgence and the weeds of yesteryear, D G A Asus4 A Like criminals, they have choked the breath of conscience and good cheer. D G D G The sun beat down upon the steps of time to light the way D G A Asus4 A To ease the pain of idleness and the memory of decay. A A7 D A I gaze into the doorway of temptation's angry flame A A7 D | A G | And every time I pass that way, I always hear my name. D G D G Then onward in my journey I come to understand D G A A7sus4 | D | % | That every hair is numbered like every grain of sand. = Verse – Bridge - Chorus | D | G | D | G | | D | G | A Asus4 | A | | D | G | D | G | | D | % | A Asus4 | A | | A | A7 | D | A | | A | A7 | D | A G | | D | G | D | G | | D | G | A A7sus4 | D | % | D G D G I have gone from rags to riches in the sorrow of the night D G A7 A7sus4 A7 In the violence of a summer's dream, in the chill of a wintry light, D G D G In the bitter dance of loneliness fading into space, D G A7 A7sus4 A7 In the broken mirror of innocence on each forgotten face. A A7 D A I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea A A7 D | A G | Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other times it's only me. D G D G I am hanging in the balance of the reality of man D G A A7sus4 | D | % | Like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand. = Verse – Bridge - Chorus | D | G | D | G | | D | G | A Asus4 | A | | D | G | D | G | | D | % | A Asus4 | A | | A | A7 | D | A | | A | A7 | D | A G | | D | G | D | G | | D | G | A7 D freely ARPEGGIO (no capo) Eb Ab Eb Ab 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 Eb Ab Bb Bbsus4 Bb 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 Eb Ab Eb Ab 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 Eb Ab Bb Bbsus4 Bb 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 Bb Bb7 Eb Bb 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 Bb Bb7 Eb Bb Ab 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 Eb Ab Eb Ab 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 Eb Ab Bb Bb7sus4 Eb 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6
