Strum
D-DU-UDU
Oh  Lord to see a light
But  fail in strength to follow
Sometimes  it’s hard to let  it go
Oh  Lord to fail in  heart
Each  day grow more hollow
Sometimes  I just don’t  wanna know.
But  the road that led me here
Has  begun to disappear
Sometimes  I wonder where  I am.
 Oh Lord to hear a voice
 But let it fade and wallow
 Sometimes it’s hard to let it go.
 Oh Lord to find the words
 But keep them in and swallow
 One day the top is gonna blow
 (Chorus)
 But the road that left me here
 Has begun to disappear
 Sometimes I wonder who I am.

 (drums out)
 Oh Lord to stumble by
 For years without knowing
 Sunrise has burned my eyes again. (drums back in)
 Oh Lord to crumble quiet
 Watching from the silence
 Sunrise has burned my eyes again.
 It’s a seven-story mountain
 It’s a long-long life we live
 Gonna find a light and fill my heart again
 It’s a seven story mountain
 It’s a long long life ahead
 Gotta find a voice and fill my throat again
