Intro
F#m  E  F#m  Esus  E

Verse 1
D      E           F#m              Amaj7           D
Here I am Lord and I'm drowning in Your sea of forgetfulness
              E        F#m        Amaj7               D
The chains of yesterday surround me I yearn for peace and rest
                E            F#m
I don't want to end up where You found me
       Amaj7        D           E      D
And it echoes in my mind, keeps me awake tonight

Verse 2
D             E          F#m        Amaj7            D
I know You've cast my sin as far as the east is from the west
      E            F#m    Amaj7             D
And I stand before You now as though I've never sinned
            E              F#m          Amaj7 C#
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away
         D               E  
From You leaving me this way

Chorus 1
D
Jesus can You show me just how
F#m             A        Esus
Far the east is from the west
E              Bm7
'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been
     D                E
Come rising up in me again
       F#m                A      Esus
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest
E               Bm7                               D
'Cause You know just how far the east is from the west
                              F#m  Esus E  F#m  Esus E
From one scarred hand to the other

Verse 3
D           E         F#m            Amaj7         D
I start the day the war begins endless reminding of my sin
         E  
 and  again
     F#m                  Amaj7
Your truth is drowned out by the storm I'm in
D       E              F#m          Amaj7 C#
Today I feel like I'm just one mistake away
          D               E  
From Your leaving me this way

[Chorus 1]

Bridge
A                       E/G#
I know You've washed me white
                        F#m
Turned my darkness into light
                     D/F#
I need Your peace to get me through
D                   A
Get me through this night
A                      C#m7
I can't live by what I feel
                             F#m7
But by the truth Your word reveals
                      D
I'm not holding on to You
                         F#m  Esus
But You're holding on to me
       E             F#m
You're holding on to me

Chorus 2
D
Jesus You know just how
F#m             A        Esus
Far the east is from the west
E              F#m7
'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been
     D/F#         D
Come rising up in me again
       A                         E/G#
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest
E               Bm7                               D
'Cause You know just how far the east is from the west
                              F#m  Esus E  F#m  Esus E
From one scarred hand to the other
