[Verse 1]
It's the Cquiet Gwind on the Amwater
And the Cthundering Gstars in the Amsky
The Cscorching Gforest Amfire
And the Ccomplex Ghuman Ameye
The Csound of Gwaves colAmlapsing
Or a nCewborn's Gwaking Amcry
The Cway new Gseeds float tAmo the ground
FRight where the Gold flowers Cdie
[Chorus]
I know You're Fthere
I know You're Cwatching
Though I don't Gfeel You
And I don't Amlive like I want to
You still Fcare
Though Lord I'm prone to Cwander
I'm hardly Glistening
You're always Ccalling
  G Am
C E Am
[Verse 2]
It's the Cred birds Gstunning fAmeathers
And a hCorses Gunmatched Amstrength
It's the Cways the GRockies Amtower
And the Ccanyons Glooming Amlay
It's Chundred tGiny feeAmt
Under a Chundred Gcentipede Amlegs
The Csun and the moGon twirl in a dAmance
FDeterminGing the dCays
[Chorus]
I know You're Fthere
I know You're Cwatching
Though I don't Gfeel You
And I don't Amlive like I want to
You still Fcare
Though Lord I'm prone to Cwander
I'm hardly Glistening
You're always Ccalling

[Verse 3]
It's the Cway we're Gwarned of Amwinter
By the Cbloody Gautumn Amleaves
How Call the gGround is Amconnected
By the Croots undGer the Amtrees
Though the vCiolence Gof human Amnature
The CEarth is GwhisperAming
FSoft, Ggentle, and Cbrilliant
Is my FMaker's Glove for Cme
[Chorus]
I know You're Fthere
I know You're Cwatching
Though I don't Gfeel You
And I don't Amlive like I want to

Capo 4

[Intro]

C G Am

C E Am

[Verse 1]

C G Am

It's the quiet wind on the water

C G Am

And the thundering stars in the sky

C G Am

The scorching forest fire

C G Am

And the complex human eye

C G Am

The sound of waves collapsing

C G Am

Or a newborn's waking cry

C G Am

The way new seeds float to the ground

F G C

Right where the old flowers die

[Chorus]

I know You're there

I know You're watching

Though I don't feel You

And I don't live like I want to

You still care

Though Lord I'm prone to wander

I'm hardly listening

You're always calling

G Am

C E Am

[Verse 2]

C G Am

It's the red birds stunning feathers

C G Am

And a horses unmatched strength

C G Am

It's the ways the Rockies tower

C G Am

And the canyons looming lay

C G Am

It's hundred tiny feet

C G Am

Under a hundred centipede legs

C G Am

The sun and the moon twirl in a dance

F G C

Determining the days

[Chorus]

I know You're there

I know You're watching

Though I don't feel You

And I don't live like I want to

You still care

Though Lord I'm prone to wander

I'm hardly listening

You're always calling

G Am

C E Am

[Verse 3]

C G Am

It's the way we're warned of winter

C G Am

By the bloody autumn leaves

C G Am

How all the ground is connected

C G Am

By the roots under the trees

C G Am

Though the violence of human nature

C G Am

The Earth is whispering

F G C

Soft, gentle, and brilliant

F G C

Is my Maker's love for me

[Chorus]

I know You're there

I know You're watching

Though I don't feel You

And I don't live like I want to

You still care

Though Lord I'm prone to wander

I'm hardly listening

You're always calling

G Am

C E Am
