[Verse 1]
C G C G
Well, your spirit is strong, but I'm a nervous wreck
C G D D
There's something about you so fragile and delicate
C G C G
If I could wrap up your innocence, I'd have it done quick
Em D C G C G
And keep it from the wolves of this present darkness
[Verse 2]
C G C G
Trade your crown of thorns for a crown of joy
C G D D
I was wearing my weariness like a badge of glory
C G C G
You're tradin' your secrets after nothing remains
Em D C G C G
I was checkin' my pockets and countin' my change
[Chorus]
C D G
Now the word's in my ears
C Em
The wind's up above
C D G
I will shed my skin
Em
When I jump right in
D C G C G
To this river of love
[Verse 3]
C G C G
You get moved by the Spirit, but I'm so out of touch
C G D D
You're down on your knees, but I'm down on my luck
C G C G
You're doing your labors in the fields of the Lord
Em D C G C G
I'm workin' hard at nothin' in this cheap room and board
[Chorus]
C D G
Now the word's in my ears
C Em
The wind's up above
C D G
I will shed my skin
Em
When I jump right in
D C G C G
To this river of love
[Verse 4]
C G C G
Well, your spirit is willing, but my flesh is weak
C G D D
Used to make my pronouncements, now it's harder to speak
C G C G
And dig up a word that is good for the soul
Em D C G C G
'Cause down in these mines, there's a lot of fool's gold
[Chorus]
C D G
now the words in my ears
C Em
and the wind up above
C D G Em
i will shed my skin as i jump right in
D G
to this river of love
C D G Em
i will shed my skin as i jump right in
D G
to this river of love
C D G Em
i will shed my skin as i jump right in
D C G C G C G D G
to this river of love
