Intro:
E BsusIII A2II BsusII
E BsusIII A2II BsusII
Verse 1:keep playing intro
Sometimes I believe all the lies
So I can do the things I should despise
And everyday I am swayed
By whatever is on my mind
I hear it all depends on my faith
So I'm feeling precarious
The only problem I have with these mysteries
Is they're so mysterious
C#m7 Bsus E
And like a consumer I've been thinking
A2I
If I could just get a bit more
C#m7 Bsus E
More than my fifteen minutes of faith
A2I
Then I'd be secure
Chorus:
E A2I
My faith is like shifting sand
C#m7I BsusI A2I
Changed by every wave
E A2I
My faith is like shifting sand
C#m7I BsusI A2I
So I stand on grace
Verse 2:play intro again
I've begged you for some proof
For my Thomas eyes to see
A slithering staff, a leprous hand
And lions resting lazily
C#m7 Bsus
A glimpse of your back-side glory
E A2I
And this soaked altar going ablaze
C#m7 Bsus E
But you know I've seen so much
A2I
And I explained it away
Chorus
Bridge:
BsusII
Waters rose as my doubts reigned
A2II
My sand-castle faith it slipped away
BsusII
Found myself standing on your grace
A2II
It'd been there all the time
Chorus 2x
A2
I stand on grace
E
