I've seen you calm the waters raging
C                G  C
In the rivers of my mind
     G                             C    G   C
Your spirit blows a breeze into my soul
         G
And I've felt the fire 

That warms the heart
C                     G    C
Knowin' that it comes from you
          Dm                       C     G  C
Then I've let it turn as cold as a stone

    G
Oh, sometimes I feel like I'm
   Dm
As close as your shadow
G
    Sometimes I feel like I'm
F                 G
    Lookin' up at you

>From the bottom of the
F        C
Grand Canyon
   G            C
So small and so far
         F     C
>From the Grand Canyon
       G          C
With a hole in my heart
          G             Dm
And I'm a long way from where I know
F         G
I need to be
               F     C
When there's a Grand Canyon 
  G             C
Between you and me

     G
I've had the faith that gave me strength
    C              G   C
For moving any mountainside
     G                                C    G  C
I've felt the solid ground beneath my feet
         G
But I've had the bread of idleness
      C                    G  C
While drinking from a well of doubt
       Dm                         C     G   C
And it shakes the core of all I believe

   G
Oh, sometimes I feel like I'm

As close as your shadow

   Sometimes I feel Like I'm
