[Intro 1]
[C][F][C]
[G][C][F][C][G]
[C]I remember

[Verse 1]
the day
of the Ten[G]nessee [C]flood
The sound of the scream
and the sight of the blood
My son he saw as the [G]an imal died
[C]In [F]the jaws of the dog
as the river [G]ran by
I said, [Am]"Come [G]back [C]soon."
[F][C]

[Verse 2]
[F][G]
[C]It's there on the page
of the book [F]that I [C]read
[F]The boy [C]grew up [G]and the yearling [F]was dead
[C]He stood at the gate with
the an[G]gel on guard
[F]And wept for the death
of his little boy heart
I say, [Am]"Come [G]back[F][Am]
[G]soo[F]n."
[Am][G][F]

[Verse 3]
We [G]wake in the night in the wom
[Am]b of[F] the world[C]
[G]We bea[Am]t our fists o[G]n the door[F]
[G]We cannot breathe
in this sea [Am]that [F]swirls[C]
So [G]we [Am]groan in [G]this great [F]darkness
For deliver[C]ance[F]
De[C]liverance, [F]O L[G]ord[C]

[Verse 4]
[F]I s[C]it [F]on [G]the[C] bench
at the bend [F]in the trail
And I can [C]feel in the fall the final ex[F]hale
The [C]trees of the field all wring
[G]their hands
[F]And the leaves go by like a funeral band
I say, [Am]"Come [G]back [F]soo[Am]n."[G][F]
[Am]

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][F][Am][F]
[Am][F]

[Verse 5]
[F]We [G]wake in the night
in the wom[Am]b of [F]the world
We [Am]beat our fist[G]s on the d[F]oor
We [G]cannot breathe in this sea [Am]that [F]swirls
So we [Am]groan in [G]this great [F]darkness
Are we [Am]alone in this [G]great [F]darkness?

[Interlude 2]
[G][Am][F][Am][G][F]
[G][Am][F]

[Verse 6]
If [C]nature's red [F]in tooth and in claw
[C]Then [F]it [C]seems to me
that she's [F]an outlaw
'Cause [C]every death is
a ques[G]tion mark
At the end [F]of the book of a
beating heart
And the answer [Am]is scrawled
in the [G]silent dark
On the dome [F]of the sky in a
billion stars
But we can[Am]not read these
[G]angel tongues
And we [F]cannot stare
at the burning sun
And we can[Am]not sing
with these [G]broken lungs
So [F]we kick in the womb
and we beg to be born
[Am]De l[G]iver[F]ance[Am]![G]
[F]Deliver [Am]ance[F], O Lord[Am]![G]
