Verse 1

         C      G           Am
It's the quiet wind on the water,
        C         G               Am
or the thundering stars up in the sky.
         C         G      Am
It's the scorching forest fire
       C       G     Am
or the complex human eye.
    C        G     Am
The sound of waves collapsing
     C         G      Am
or a newborn's waking cry.
    C        G          Am
The way new seeds float to the ground,
F               G           C
Right where the old flowers die.


Chorus:

                  F
And I know you're there,
                  C
and I know you're watching.
            G
But I don't feel you.
            Am
And I don't live like I want to
          F                              C
You still care, though Lord I'm prone to wander.
           G                        C
I'm hardly listening, you're always calling.


Verse 2

         C          G        Am
It's the red bird's stunning feathers
      C       G         Am
and a horse's unmatched strength.
         C       G       Am
It's the way the Rockies tower,
        C       G       Am
and the canyons looming lay.
         C       G    Am
It's the hundred tiny feet
        C       G         Am
under a hundred centipede legs.
    C           G               Am
The sun and the moon twirl in a dance,
F        G      C
determining the days.


Chorus:

                  F
And I know you're there,
                  C
and I know you're watching.
            G
But I don't feel you.
            Am
And I don't live like I want to
          F                              C
You still care, though Lord I'm prone to wander.
           G                        C
I'm hardly listening, you're always calling.


Verse 3

         C         G         Am
It's the way we're warned of winter
       C      G      Am
by the bloody autumn leaves.
    C        G           Am
How all this ground is connected
       C       G       Am
by the roots under the trees.
            C           G     Am
Through the violence of human nature,
    C        G        Am
the Earth is whispering,
F     G           C
Soft, gentle, and brilliant
      F       G        C
is my maker's love for me.

(Optional- repeat chorus a third and final time)
