Oh the air is full of song here

Verse 3:
   C
I used to be a little boy
    Csus
As golden as a sunrise
C
Breaking over illinois
                  Am7     F2
When the corn was tall

          C
Yeah, but every little boy grows up
         Csus
And he's haunted by the heart that died
C
Longing for the world that was
            Am7    F2
Before the fall

Chorus 3:
 Am7
Oh, but then forgiveness comes
  Gsus
A grace that I cannot resist

I just want to thank someone for this

Bridge:
    Am7
Now I can see the world is charged
     Gsus
It's glimmering with promises
 F2
Written in a script of stars
 Em7
Dripping from prophets' lips

    Am7
But still, my thirst is never slaked
     Gsus
I am hounded by a restlessness
    F2
I'm eaten by this endless ache
    Em7
But still I will give thanks for this

             Am7
'Cause I can see it in the seas of wheat
      Gsus
I can feel it when the horses run
     F2
It's howling in the snowy peaks
     Em7
It's blazing in the midnight sun

Am7
Just behind a veil of wind
          Gsus
A million angels waiting in the wings
   F2
A swirling storm of cherubim
         Em7
Making ready for the reckoning

   Am7           Gsus
Oh, how long, how long?
  F2             Gsus
Oh, sing on, sing on

Verse 4:
     C
And when the world is new again
        Csus
And the children of the king
     C
Are ancient in their youth again
             Am7
Maybe it's a better thing
  F2
A better thing
      C
To be more than merely innocent
          Csus
But to be broken then redeemed by love
C
Maybe this old world is bent
                      Am7
But it's waking up
              F2
And I'm waking up

Chorus 4:
       Am7
'Cause I can hear the voice of one
     Gsus
He's crying in the wilderness
      Am7
"Make ready for the kingdom come"
 F2                                C
Don't you want to thank someone for this?
                F2
To thank someone for this

Ending:
      C
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
     F2
Hallalujah! Hallelujah!
|C          |           |F2         |          |(pretty much for 3 minutes)
