This song is made up of three parts: Verse type 1 (V1), Verse type 2
(V2) and Chorus (CH). I have listed the chords for each line until
the first chorus so you can get the hang of it. The song pattern is
V1-V2-V1-V2-CH-V1-V2-CH, with the last part of the chorus repeated at
the very end. It's easy to hear when you listen.
V1:
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
jesus are you real
D MajorD A augmentedA

V2:
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
standing like a statue in the sea
D MajorD A augmentedA
in a little truck stop in tennessee
E MajorE F# minorF#m
bombs are crashing down in waves
D MajorD A augmentedA
on a giant tv screen
E MajorE F# minorF#m
and i am struck i cannot move
D MajorD A augmentedA
to make it stop what can i do
E MajorE F# minorF#m
people are dying in their beds
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE
while this flag flies over our heads
V1:
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
jesus are you stronger
D MajorD A augmentedA
than a loaded gun
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
i m beginning to believe
D MajorD A augmentedA
you re not the only one
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
strong enough to show your love
D MajorD A augmentedA
strong enough to give
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
strong enough to go through hell
D MajorD A augmentedA
strong enough to live
V2:
A augmentedA F# minorF#m
all night long i sat with you
D MajorD A augmentedA
in a darkened hospital room
E MajorE F# minorF#m
nurses checked in by the hour
D MajorD A augmentedA
i was made aware of a higher power
E MajorE F# minorF#m
and how this fragile life we live
D MajorD A augmentedA
is not ours to keep but ours to give
E MajorE F# minorF#m
what in the world am i gonna do
D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE
if anything should happen to you

E MajorE C# minorC#m
and when i say i search for you
A augmentedA F# minorF#m E MajorE
i mean i search for peace
E MajorE C# minorC#m
i search for hope i search for love
A augmentedA F# minorF#m E MajorE
and one day for release
V1:
jesus, my life
does not feel the same
new things happen every day
things i can t explain
but i am not a man of faith
i m a man of truth
but is this feeling in my heart
is this feeling proof
V2:
when you do not know
you know
and when you know
you do not know
and when you think you do you die
and when you do do not think you grow
are we left here in the dark
or are we left here in the light
it seems to me that both are true
and it s up to us to know what s right
CH:
all i do is doubt you god
all is do is love you god
all i do is question you
what else can i do
this world was never solid ground
religion cannot help me now
all i do is search for you
what else can i do
and when i say i search for you
i mean i search for peace
i search for hope
i search for love
and one day for release
E MajorE C# minorC#m
god give me strength to accept the things
A augmentedA F# minorF#m E MajorE
that i just cannot know
E MajorE C# minorC#m
and even when i lose control
A augmentedA F# minorF#m E MajorE
i will not let you go
