Casting Crowns


Tom: Ab

(Capo 1st Fret)

INTRO:  C  G  D  (2 x's)

VERSE I:
C       G       D
Careless, I am reckless
       C
I'm a wrong way traveling,
G                   D
Slowly unraveling shell of a man
C         G         D
Burnt out, I'm so numb now
          C                      G
But the fires just an ember way down in the corner
D
Of my cold cold heart

Refrão ------------- PREChorus:
Em D
Lord this time
               C
I'll make it right
             Am           Em
Here at the altar I lay my life
               G
Your kingdom come
              D
My will was done
                     (STOP PLAYING)
My heart was broken as I…

Refrão ------------- C G      Em D
Cry, like so many times before
          C G
But my, eyes
           Em             D
are dry before I leave the floor
             C G
Oh Lord I, Try
     Em             D           C
But this time Jesus how can I be sure
             G              C
I will not lose my follow thru
            D        (STOP) C G D
Between the altar and the door

VERSE II:
               C  G        D
Here at the altar all my world's so black and white
                   C    G               D
How could I ever falter what you've shown me to be right

REPEAT PREChorus

REPEAT Chorus

BRIDGE:
STRUM ONLY      C   G   D
C           G
Trying so hard
           Em      D
To stop trying so hard
             C             G
Just let you be who you are
           Em         D
Lord, who you are in me
       (Play Harder)C G
Jesus, I'm trying so hard
          Em        D
To stop trying so hard
             C             G
Just let you be who you are
           Em         D
Lord, who you are in me

Oh, Lord I ,

REPEAT Chorus (x's 2)
