Chords with lyrics
Key: C majorC Major
Intro:
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
C majorC G+G
It's enough to drive a man crazy, it'll break a man's faith
A minorAm G+G
It's enough to make him wonder, if he's ever been sane
FF A minorAm
When he's bleating for comfort from Thy staff and Thy rod
C majorC G+G
And the Heaven's only answer is the silence of God
C majorC G+G
It'll shake a man's timbers when he loses his heart
A minorAm G+G
When he has to remember what broke him apart
FF A minorAm
This yoke may be easy but this burden is not
C majorC A minorAm
When the crying fields are frozen by the silence of God
FF A minorAm
And if a man has got to listen to the voices of the mob
FF A minorAm
Who are reeling in the throes of all the happiness they've got
FF
When they tell you all their troubles
A minorAm
Have been nailed up to that cross
DmDm C majorC
Then what about the times when even followers get lost?
C majorC G+G
'Cause we all get lost sometimes
C majorC G+G
There's a statue of Jesus on a monastery knoll
A minorAm FF
In the hills of Kentucky, all quiet and cold
C majorC G+G
And He's kneeling in the garden, as silent as a Stone
A minorAm G+G
All His friends are sleeping and He's weeping all alone
FF A minorAm
And the man of all sorrows, he never forgot
C majorC G+G
What sorrow is carried by the hearts that he bought
FF A minorAm
So when the questions dissolve into the silence of God
C majorC G+G
The aching may remain but the breaking does not
FF A minorAm
The aching may remain but the breaking does not
C majorC G+G
In the holy, lonesome echo of the silence of God
