Tom: Am
Cm
[Verse 1]
Cm
Sometimes I feel like I'm walking
Fm Cm G
A tightrope from Heaven to Earth
Fm Cm
Walk steady, walk straight, don't grumble, don't be late
D7 G
Get better or you're going to get hurt
Cm
So I try to walk balanced and healthy
Fm Cm G
I say I'm fine, wobbles and all
Fm Cm
But some things I can't fake, it's a curse I can't break
D7 G
No, the tightrope's no match for the fall
F Fm C
No, the tightrope's no match for the fall
[Chorus]
Am F C
Teach me to fall in your direction
G Am
Teach me to hitch my heart to yours
F C
Give me the mind to know the difference
E7 Am
Between the cart, the cargo and horse
F C
Teach me today I still need saving
E Am
Show me the measure of your grace
F Fm
When I can't go on, teach me to climb
C Am
When I can't get up, teach me to rise
F Fm Cm Dm F G
And when I fall, teach me to fly
[Verse 2]
Cm
You danced on the tightrope like nothing
Fm Cm G
Made all of the walkers look stiff
Fm Cm
You forgave the sinner and you condemned the winner
D7 G
So they took that rope and hung you with it
Cm
But on the third day something happened
Fm D#
You rose up and looked for your friends
G Cm
You told them you forgave them and that you'd always be with them
D7 G
And that falling is how you ascend
F Fm C
You said falling is how you ascend
[Chorus]
Am F C
Teach me to fall in your direction
G Am
Teach me to hitch my heart to yours
F C
Give me the mind to know the difference
E7 Am
Between the cart, the cargo and horse
F C
Teach me today I still need saving
E Am
Show me the measure of your grace
F Fm
When I can't go on, teach me to climb
C Am
When I can't get up, teach me to rise
F Fm Cm
And when I fall, teach me to fly
