(partly cut off on the recording) | G | Cmaj7 | G | Cmaj7 | G | Cmaj7 | D Dsus4 | D | G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 In the time of my confession, in the hour of my deepest need G Cmaj7 D Dsus4 D When the pool of tears beneath my feet flood every newborn seed G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 There’s a dyin’ voice within me reaching out somewhere G Cmaj7 D Dsus4 D Toiling in the danger and in the morals of despair D D7 G D Don’t have the inclination to look back on any mistake D D7 G D C/D Like Cain, I now behold this chain of events that I must break (break) (break) G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 In the fury of the moment I can see the Master’s hand G Cmaj7 D C/D G In every leaf that trembles and in every grain of sand G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 Oh, the flowers of indulgence and the weeds of yesteryear G Cmaj7 D Dsus4 D Like criminals, they have choked the breath of conscience and good cheer G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 The sun beat down upon the steps of time to light the way G Cmaj7 D Dsus4 D To ease the pain of idleness and the memory of decay D D7 G D I gaze into the doorway of temptation’s angry flame D D7 G D C/D And every time I pass that way I always hear my name (break) (break) G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 Then onward in my journey I come to understand G Cmaj7 D C/D G That every hair is numbered like every grain of sand G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 I have gone from rags to riches in the sorrow of the night G Cmaj7 D Dsus4 D In the violence of a summer’s dream, in the chill of a wintry light G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 In the bitter dance of loneliness fading into space G Cmaj7 D Dsus4 D In the broken mirror of innocence on each forgotten face D D7 G D I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea D D7 G D C/D Sometimes I turn, there’s someone there, other times it’s only me (break) (break) G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 I am hanging in the balance of a perfect finished plan G Cmaj7 D C/D | G Gsus4 | G Like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand
