Capo 3
C2- 000230
Am I a barren teEmmple left for newer ways
Of speaking mystAmeries my veils cannot coCntain
Should I prEmepare to winter spend again
                                            Am       C  Am-single strum
Of silent centuries' speech for only certain men
What if I wEmait to find You've gone
What if Your preAmsence was withdrawn
And I was misEmtaken all along
To think that I could beAmcome your home
It'd be no surprise to finally kEmnowAm  C2  C  
I am truly alEmoneAm  C2  C

Come death, but likely sooner I'll be alone
                     Em    Am  D-single strum
You moved your temple
                           Em    Am  D-single strum
inside our bones and it's
                             Em    Am  D-single strum

Em                                          Am
   C   AmFor all eternity, You stood with Your Father in perfect unity
    EmAnd when You walked the earth, You only wAment where He led
You only sCpoke what He Amsaid

Capo 3

- 000230

Am I a barren temple left for newer ways

Am C

Of speaking mysteries my veils cannot contain

Should I prepare to winter spend again

Am C Am

-single strum

Of silent centuries' speech for only certain men

What if I wait to find You've gone

What if Your presence was withdrawn

And I was mistaken all along

To think that I could become your home

Em Am C2 C

It'd be no surprise to finally know

Em Am C2 C

I am truly alone

Em Am

-single strum

Come death, but likely sooner I'll be alone

Em Am D

-single strum

You moved your temple

Em Am D

-single strum

inside our bones and it's

Em Am D

-single strum

So hard to trust that You

won't move again

Em Am

C Am

For all eternity, You stood with Your Father in perfect unity

Em Am

And when You walked the earth, You only went where He led

C Am

You only spoke what He said

Em Am

So for everything You left, and all of the glory You forfeit

No matter how low You were sent

Am Em Am

C2 C

You still couldn't know what it's like to be alone

Em Am C2 C

Disgraced, but You were never alone

Em Am C2 C

Betrayed, but You were never alone

Em Am C2 C

Tortured, but still never alone

And nothing is worse than being alone

I have been thinking hard about us trading place

Em Am

Maybe I can wear Your beauty if You put on my shame

Jesus, I've been trying so hard to look like You

That I almost missed the worst of what I put You through

You didn't die for sins, You died covered in them

A prideful, lying thief, gasping out my final breath

Em Am D

-single strum

Em Am D

-single strum

For that one moment

Em Am D

-single strum

You looked just like me

Em Am D

-single strum

Your Father left you

Em Am C2 C

And You died completely alone

Em Am C2 C

For me, You were alone

You couldn't marry so He left You all alone

Am C2 C

No better promise than sympathy

(You conquered death all alone)

Am C2 C

'Cause you know the deepest of all our needs

Em Am C2 C C2
