Abide Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I will [G]bring a cup of water
Here's the [D]best that I can [G]offer
In the [Em]dusk of coming night
[G]There is evidence [D]of [G]light
With the [C]pattering [G]of rain
Let us [D]bow as if in [Em]grace
Consider [C]all the ways we [G]heal
And how a [Am]heart
[G]Can [D]break[G]
Oh [D]abide

[Verse 2]
[C]wit[G]h me
Where it's breathless and it's [Em]empty
Yes [C]abide [G]with me
And we'll pass the evening gently
[C]Sta[Em]y awa[C]ke wit[G]h me
And we'll listen more intently
[Em]To something wordl[C]ess
[D]and re[Em]maining
Sure [D]an d ever chan[G]ging
[Am]In the quietness[G] of now[C]
[D]

[Verse 3]
Let us [G]ponder the unknown
What is [D]hidden and what's whole
And [C]finally learn [Em]to travel
At [G]the speed of our own souls
There [C]is a living wa[G]ter
[D]A spirit cutting [Em]through
Always [C]changing always [G]making
[Am]All [G]things n[D]ew[G]
[D]Oh abide

[Verse 4]
[C]wit[G]h me
Where it's breathless [C]and it's [Em]empty
Yes [C]abide [G]with me
And we'll pass the even[C]ing gently
Stay awake [G]with me
And we'll listen more [C]intently
[Em]To something wordl[C]ess
[D]and re[Em]maining
Sure an[D]d ever chan[G]ging
In the [Am]quiet[D]ness of now

[Verse 5]
There [G]are things I cannot prove
And [D]still somehow I know
It's like [Em]a message in a bottle
That some [G]unseen hand has
thrown
You don't [C]have to [D]be [G]afraid
You don't [D]have to walk [Em]alone
I don't [C]know but I sus[G]pect
That it will [Am]feel
[G]Like [Bm]home[D]

[Verse 6]
[C]Oh abide [G]with me
Where it's breathless [C]and [Em]it's empty
Yes [C]abide [G]with me
And we'll pass the [C]evening gently
Stay awake [G]with me
And we'll listen more [C]intently
[Em]To something w[C]ordless an[D]d rema[Em]ining
[C]Sure an[D]d ever chan[G]ging
[D]In the qui[Am]etnes[G]s of now[C]
