Intro:
[E] [Eb] [Db] [Ab] [Am] [Ab] [Ebm] [F]
===
[Cm] God, [F] our merciful father
[Abm] I'm wrapped in a robe of light
Clothed in your [Gb] glory
[Abm] That spreads its wings over [Ebm] my soul
[F] [Ab] May I be worthy
Amen
There's not a morning I begin without
A thousand questions running through my mind
That I don't [A] try [Ab] to find the reason and the logic
In the world that God [Fm] designed
The reason [Ab] why
[Eb] A bird was [D] given [Gm] wings
If not to fly and praise the [C] sky
With every song it [F] sings
What's right or wrong [B]
Where I [Bbm] belong
[G] Within the scheme of [C] things
[G] [Cm] [Am] [Ab] [Eb] [Fm]
[Eb] And why have eyes that [Ab] see
And arms that reach
Unless you're meant to know
There's something more?
If not to hunger for the meaning of it all
Then tell me what a soul is [Fm] for?
Why have the wings
[Eb] Unless you're [D] meant to [Gm] fly?
And tell me please, why have a [Cm] mind
If not to [C] question [Fm] why?
And tell me [Bbm] where
Where is it written what it is
I'm [Eb] meant to be, that I can't [Ab] dare
To have the chance to pick the fruit of every [Db] tree
Or have my [Eb] [G] share of every sweet- [C] imagined possibility?
Just tell me [Db] where, [Eb] tell me [Ab] where? [Ebm]
[Ab] If I were only meant to tend the nest
Then why does my imagination [Abm] sail
Across the [Ab] mountains and the seas
Beyond the make-believe of any fairy [Fm] tale?
Why have the [Eb] thirst if not to [D] drink the [Gm] wine?
And what a waste to have a [C] taste
Of things that can't be [Fm] mine?
And tell me [Bbm] where, where is it written what it is
I'm meant to [Eb] be, that I can't [Ab] dare
To find the meanings in the [Db] mor [Ab] nings that I [Db] see
Or have my [Gm] share of every sweet-imagined [C] possibility?
Just tell me [Db] where - where is it [Eb] written?
[C] Tell me [Fm] where
[E] Or if it's [Eb] written [Dbm] anywhere[A] ?
