Am
Once I stood alone so proud held myself above the crowd
G                   Am
now i am low on the ground.
Am 
From here i look around to see what avenues belong to me
G                      Am
I can't tell what ive found.

Am       G         F
Now what would You have me do
Am  G     F
i ask you please?
Am  G     Em       C
I wait to hear.

Am
The mother, and the matador, the mystic, all were here before,
G                     Am
like me, to stare You down.
Am 
You appear without a face, disappear, but leave your trace,
G                  Am
i feel your unseen frown.

Am       G         F
Now what would you have me do
Am  G     F
I ask you please?
Am  G     Em
i wait to hear
 
     C
your voice,

the word,
    G
you say
   Em     C   
i wait to see your sign
G    F    G

Em
obey?

Am
I look for you in heathered moor, the desert, and the ocean floor
G                     Am
how low does one heart go.
Am
looking for your fingerprints i find them in coincidence,
G                    Am
and make my faith to grow.
Am
Forgive me all my blindnesses my weakness and unkindnesses
G               Am
as yet unbending still.
Am
struggling so hard to see my fist against eternity
G                      Am
and will you break my will?

Am       G          F
Now what would you have me do
Am G      F
i ask you please?
Am G     Em
i wait to hear
     C
your voice,
    F
the word
    G
you say
  Em      C   
i wait to see your sign 
 G   F      G
could i 
Em
obey?
