Verse 1:(use the intro/verse riff)
Is this the strange feeling
Of you working all to good
'Cause I am so confused
I don't even ask for what I should

 [D]  [Bm]     [G]     [A]
When I asked for and deserved a stone
 [D]    [Bm]            [G]      [A]
You broke and gave your body as bread
 [D]   [Bm]   [G]                [A]      [D]       [Bm]
And even the stone that dropped down and rolled away
 [G] (Riff 2)
Spoke of the one who bled

Chorus:
 D        Bm   G
There you go working good from my bad
 D        Bm   G                   A
There you go making robes from my rags
 D        Bm   G
There you go melting crowns from my calves
 D        Bm   G
There you go working good of all I have
 G             (1st time Riff 3/2nd time Riff 4)
Till all I have's not that bad

Verse 2:(use the intro/verse riff)
 [D]  [Bm]     [G]     [A]
When I asked for and deserved a serpent
 [D]  [Bm] [G]         [A]
You gave a net full of fish
 [D]   [Bm]    [G]        [A]
And even the serpent that told the lie
(Riff 2) [D]  [Bm]   [G]
When lifted high foretold the gift

Chorus

Bridge:
 (A) [Bm]    [G]
For you so loved the unlovable
 (A) [Bm]  [G]
That you gave the ineffable
 (Bsus4) [Bm]  [G]
That who so believes the unbelievable
 (Bsus4) [Em]    [A2]
Will gain the unattainable

INTRO:  D, /C#, /B, /A, G, D/F#, Em7, A7sus (2x)


VERSE 1:
D        /C#      /B          /A          G        D/F#  Em7  A7sus
Danny and I spent another late night over pancakes
   Bm           /F#         E7       /B              Gh
We talked about soccer and how every man's just the same
    D         /C#           /B              /A            G       D/F#  Em7  A7sus
And made speculation on the 'who's and the 'when's of our futures
        Bm         /F#         E7           A7            D
And how everyone's lonely but still we just couldn't complain


CHORUS 1:
        G  /F#  Em7  D       Asus  A
And how we just hate being alone
      G /F#  Em7  D        Asus  A
Could I have left my only chance
    G   /F# Em7  D         Asus  A
And now I'm just wasting my time
          Gh
Looking around


VERSE 2:
But you know I know better I'm not gonna worry 'bout nothing
'Cause if the birds and the flowers survive then I'll make it okay
If given a chance and a rock see which one breaks a window
And see which one keeps me up all night and into the day


CHORUS 2:
Because I'm so scared of being alone
That I forgot what house I live in
But it's not my job to wait by the phone
For her to call


VERSE 3:
Well this day's been crazy but everything's happened on schedule
From the rain and the cold to the drink that I spilled on my shirt
'Cause You knew how You'd save me before I fell dead in the garden
And You knew this day long before You made me out of dirt


CHORUS 3:
And You know the plan You have for me
And You can't plan the ends and not plan the means
And so I suppose I just need some peace
To get me to sleep
