Tom: C

G                         Am7
Sun comin' up on the earth
                           Em7
Open up strong and we learn
Never done
      C           G
Never do we waver
                            Am7
Who is the one that we seek?
                         Em7
Who is the one within we?
I don't fear
        C               G
I don't fear the answer
                          Am7
I know Hope, it has wings
                                Em7
I can see it rest with the King
Let it shine
       C                G
Let it shine unbounded
                             Am7
Out of the mouth comes the water
                        Em7
Out of the earth came a daughter


[Pre-chorus]

All I hear
      C             G    Am7
All I hear is to forgive


[Chorus]

Em7  C
Give
   Am7   G
Forgive
   Em7  C
Forgive


[Verse 2]
G                      Am7
Out of the hands of creator
               Em7
I call out Mahadeva
Lead us in
        C              G
Lead us in to patience
                            Am7
They drew the mist on the ceiling
                           Em7
Let it rain down for our healing
I know this
       C               G
I know this is ancient
                        Am7
Well I love you and I mean it
                           Em7
Hey little child can you feel it?
Let it come
       C                G
Let it come full circle
                       Am7
Giving up on separation
                       Em7
Now it's time that we face it


[Pre-chorus]

All I hear
      C             G    Am7
All I hear is to forgive


[Chorus]

Em7  C
Give
   G   Am7
Forgive
   Em7  C
Forgive


[Bridge]

D                        Em7
Burn the sage and the cedar
                        C
Oh grandmother we need a.. a way home, a way home
D                      Em7
With the sound of the river
                  F           C
Watch it come and carry us home 
(repeat)


[Outro]

Forgive
G                                               Am7
  Forgive everything that has ever happened 
life is everything we can imagine
      Em7
laid out in patterns of pain and passion
         C
you cannot control it
so keep your compassion
 
G
  There are no accidents
Am7
  there are no factions
there is no us or them
Em7
nothing to borrow or lend
no enemy or friend
       C
and only forgiveness can make that happen
G                                        Am7
   The only battle worth the fight
from the Rwandan genocide
                                Em7                               
to the Seven Sisters forgiving Orion for how he chases them 
                C
across the skies every night
                G
forgiveness
is for giving
                                Am7
so give yourself this gift from time to time
                                Em7
and let all of your mistakes

                                C
become all of your greatest gifts
in disguise.

G Am7 Em7 C
Forgive (repeat till end)
