Verse 1:
       G+G
When I was a girl, each week
          D MajorD
On Sunday, we would go to church
         C majorC
And pay attention to the priest
           G+G
And he would read the holy word

          G+G
And consecrate the holy bread
          D MajorD
And everyone would kneel and bow
        C majorC
Today the only difference is
       G+G
Everything is holy now

Refrain:
    E minorEm     D MajorD
Everything, everything
       C majorC
Everything is holy now

Verse 2:
       G+G
When I was in Sunday school
        D MajorD
We would learn about the time
        C majorC
Moses split the sea in two
        G+G
Jesus made the water wine

        G+G
And I remember feeling sad
          D MajorD
That miracles don't happen still
     C majorC
But now I can't keep track
           G+G
'Cause everything's a miracle

Refrain:
    E minorEm     D MajorD

        C majorC
Everything's a miracle


Bridge:
D MajorD  G+G        C majorC
Wine  from water is not so small
          FF      C majorC
But an even bigger magic trick
          G+G
Is that anything is here at all
D MajorD G+G         C majorC
So  the challenging thing becomes
        FF     C majorC
Not to look for miracles
            D MajorD
But finding where there isn't one


Verse 3:
          G+G
When holy water was rare at best
         D MajorD
It barely wet my fingertips
         C majorC
But now I have to hold my breath
            G+G
Like I'm swimming in a sea of it

        G+G
I used to see a world half there
           D MajorD
Heaven's second rate hand-me-down
           C majorC
But I walk it with a reverent air
           G+G
'Cause everything is holy now


Refrain:

       C majorC
Everything is holy now

Bridge:
D MajorD   G+G        C majorC
Read  a questioning child's face
          FF      C majorC
And say it's not a testament
        G+G
That'd be very hard to say
D MajorD  G+G       C majorC
See  another new morning come
          FF     C majorC
And say it's not a sacrament
          D MajorD
I tell you that it can't be done


Verse 4:
         G+G
This morning, outside I stood
         D MajorD
And saw a little red-winged bird
       C majorC
Shining like a burning bush
        G+G
Singing like a scripture verse

          G+G
It made me want to bow my head
        D MajorD
I remember when church let out
        C majorC
How things have changed since then
           G+G
‘Cause everything is holy now

        G+G
It used to be a world half-there
           D MajorD
Heaven's second rate hand-me-down
           C majorC
But I walk it with a reverent air
           G+G
'Cause everything is holy now
