Ten Thousand chords by John Mark
Guitar chords with lyrics
Hi, this is my first time doing chords but this is how I play the song Ten Thousand by the incredible worshipper John Mark McMillan. The changes can be a little quick. Also (based on the bass notes I can hear in the album version) at the line "Where the blood of a husband silences wars" the SECOND E is different to a regular E major chord; which I play like this: e ---0--- B ---0--- G ---9--- D ---9--- A ---7--- E ---0--- So at that line, you go from E. Or at least I do. Your choice :)
All the best. Enjoy the chords, God Bless.
Verse 1
E
Ten thousand glimmering like coals in our chest
A
Ball bearings drawn to the magnetic breath
E
Of ten thousand weeping with wings on their tears
A
Amidst ten thousand voices for ten thousand years
E
For ten thousand graves yawning unlocked and unlatched
A
Now ten thousand holes with rocks on their backs
E
Ten thousand tombs gaping wide singing the praise
A
Of ten thousand bodies unlaced and unlaid
Pre - Chorus
A
As the ten thousand highways unfold their doors
A
For the ten thousand standing on Nineveh's shores
E
Where the blood of a husband silences wars
E
For the girl who rises to meet him
E
And she sings
Chorus
A
World, I have overcome you
E
World, I have overcome you
B
World, I have overcome
B
By my song and the blood of a son
Verse 2
Ten thousand rivers run red like my veins
Where the bones of men hum like a rattling cage
For sinew to cling to for wind to remain
In ten thousand lungs for ten thousand days
Breathing like a choir of holes in the ground
Where the cynical have lain, where the cynical go down
Save the gravity of time lets go of her drowned Last updated:
