Intro:
(Em        G  D) x2


Verse 1:
C/E    D/F#                   Em
Here I am, Lord and I'm drowning  
            G                     C/E
In Your sea of forgetfulness
                      D/F#            Em
The chains of yesterday surround me
  G                             C/E
I yearn for peace and rest
                       D                          Em
I don't want to end up where You found me
          G/B               C                  D/F#            C
And it echoes in my mind, keeps me awake tonight


Verse 2:
C/E                D/F#               Em
I know You've cast my sin as far as
          G                       C/E
As the east is from the west
        D/F#                    Em
And I stand before You now as
     G                         C/E
As though I've never sinned
                 D                       Em               G/B
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away
               C                       D/F#
From You leaving me this way
C
Jesus can You show me just how


Chorus:
Em                  G           D
Far the east is from the west
                     Am
'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been
C
Rising up in me again
         Em                          G       D
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest
               Am                               G/B         C
You know just how far the east is from the west
                            (D) on chorus repeat
From one scarred hand to the other


Instrumental:
Em      D       Em        D


Verse 3:
C/E          D/F#                Em
I start the day, the war begins
               G                     C/E
Endless reminding of my sin
               D/F#                 Em
Time and time again Your truth is drowned out
G                       C/E
By the storm I'm in
            D                       Em               G/B
Today I feel like I'm just one mistake away
               C                      D/F#
From You leaving me this way
C
Jesus can You show me just how


Repeat Chorus


Bridge:
G                                     D/F#
I know You've washed me white
                                   Em
Turn my darkness into light
                                G/C
I need Your peace to get me through
     C                             G
To get me through this night
                               Bm
I can't live by what I feel
                                            Em
About the truth Your work reveals
                                        C
And I'm not holding on to You
                                      Em      D
But You're holding on to me
                                 Em          D
You're holding on to me


Chorus (watch out, chords are different!)
                                        G                                 D/F#
Jesus, You know just how far the east is from the west
          Em
I don't have to see the man I've been
         G/C                    C
Come rising up in me again
         G                                      D
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest (mercy I find rest)
               Am                               G/B         C
You know just how far the east is from the west

From one scarred hand to the other

(Just how far, the east is from the west, just how far)
                                              Em
From one scarred hand to the other
