Hands in the Air
the Waiting
sktomko@pla-net.net
D C
If I raise my hands just to lift the shade
D G
Will I reveal a sky heavy and grey?
D C
Will last night be a memory sweetly fading?
Bm C
How I hate a morning starting out this way
Am
On theese lonely raging mornings
Em
I would whip You if I could
G
But Your on the mighty side of strong
C
And the perfect side of good
D C
If I raise my hands will you grab me by the wrist?
D G
And will You try to pull me from the fray?
D C
and even if my fingers joined together into fist
Bm C
will you hold me firmly anyway?
Am Em
but I would try to escape you but for every day Im sure
G C
that Your on the huge side of big and the holy side of pure
D C Em D
OK hear what I say as I raise my hands in surrender today
C G Em C D C Bm C
Ok here I will stay hands in the air singing have Thine own way
D C
if I raise my hands so weak and thin and frail
D G
will You reveal the light of mercy in Your eyes
D C0
if I cry to you faintly will my feeble whisper fail
Bm C
or will it find its way to a reply
Am Em
because now that Im exhausted I think Im ready to admit
G C
that I have spent all my resistance on someone I cant resist
D C Em D
OK hear what I say because I raise my hands in surrender today
C G Em (C D Em B 3x)
Ok here I will stay hands in the air singing have Thine own way
Em C Em
Light from my window sill make my way to the door
Em C Em
I Hang my head and still I know Your wanting more
Em C Em
over the threshold now I move across the yard
Em C Em
although my will allows my every step is hard
Em C Em
now in the garden now I carve out six feet of space
C Em
there make my will comply lie down upon my face
C Em
been toe to toe to long Im tired of fighting you
C Em
I see You were to strong cause I am black and blue
C Em
but now I understand a losers due to win
C Em
how evry dying man is sure to rise again
C Em
so I raise my left hand one I raise my right hand two
C
Under the morning sun my spirit cries to You
D C Em D
OK hear what I say because I raise my hands in surrender today
C G Em C
Right here under the sun hands in the air singing Thy will be done
D C Em C
IM here under the sun hands in the air singing Thy will be done
G Em C
Ok here I will stay hands in the air singing have Thine own way
Em C
hands in the air singing have Thine own way
Em
have Thine own way have Thine own way
