Em7                          G
  WAS A TIME AS A LITTLE BOY
                             D
  WHEN I SAID I'D FOLLOW YOU
Em7                                   G
  BUT THE YEARS HAVE CAUSED THE FLAME
                            D
  TO BURN MUCH STRONGER NOW
Em7                                  G
  AND I'M NOT BURNING DOWN ANY OF MY BRIDGES
                       D
  BUT I'M BURNING UP INSIDE
                           G
  TO FLEE FROM MY RELIGION
                           D
  AND LOVE MY NEIGBOR MORE

Em7                                 G
  THERE WERE TIMES IN MY BARRENNESS
                                  D
  WHEN I FELT YOUR PURE AFFECTION
Em7                               G
  AND YOU HEARD MY FRAIL PETITION
                         D
  TO SERVE YOU ENDLESSLY
Em7                                   G              
  BUT HAVE I LOVED THE TREE THAT THEY PUT YOU ON
                                 D
  OR MY FRIEND WHO MET ME AT THE CROSS
                                    G
  OH I WANT TO SING AGAIN FOR MY BROTHER NOW
                            D
  AND FIND MY WAY DOWN THIS MOUNTAIN

  'CAUSE I'VE FELT THE OIL POUR DOWN   OVER ME
C2                                  G/B
  AND THERE'S A FIRE THAT'S BURNING STRONGER NOW

  IT'S BURNING STRONGER, MUCH STRONGER
