[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
I will fight the spir[G]it
[F]With a sword [C]in my side
And she found a way [G]out
Crack my [F]rib
Wait to [C]die[E]
I think I know [F]you best
[C]when I sleep[E]
I think [F]I know everything

[Interlude 1]
[C]

[Verse 2]
[C]Me and my [G]brothers
We have [F]tongues sharp [C]as knives
And I found [G]a way out
Make [F]a noise, close your eye[C]s[E]
I think [F]I talk to you best when [C]I sing[E]
I sing [F]about almost everything

[Verse 3]
[C]Oh God I need it
So let me see again
Take me to the river
And let me see again
Oh my [F]God
Let me see [C]again
Oh my [F]God
Let me see [C]again

[Interlude 2]
Let me see again
[C][G][C]

[Verse 4]
[C]Grace taught her daugh[G]ter[C]
[G]Daily [F]I'm strained to [C]be
God how I feel [G]it
Fetter [F]pride [C]to your feet[E]

[Verse 5]
I'm gonna [F]leave you the first
chance [C]I g[E]et
I'm [F]gonna leave you
the first chance I [C]get[E]
I'm [F]gonna leave you
the first [C]chance I [E]get
I'm [F]gonna leave you
the first chance I, [C]get

[Verse 6]
And [C]oh God I need it
Well I was wrong again
Take me to the river
And make me clean again

[Verse 7]
Oh my [F]God
Make me clean [C]again
And oh my [F]God[C]
Let me see again
