Words and Music By Charlie Peacock
[E]I KEEP TRYIN[F#]G TO FIND A LIFE[G#m]
ON MY OWN, APART[E] FROM YOU[F#][G#m]
[E]I AM THE KING OF [F#]EXCUSES[G#m]
[E]
[F#]I’VE GOT ONE FOR EVERY [G#m]SELFISH THING I DO
[E]WHAT’S GOING ON INSIDE O[F#]F ME?[G#m]
I DESPISE [E]MY OWN BEHAVIOR[F#][G#m]
THIS ONLY SERVES[E] TO CONFIRM MY SUSPICIONS[F#][G#m]
THAT I’M STILL [E]A MAN IN NEED OF A SAVIOUR[F#][G#m]
(CHORUS)
I WANNA BE IN THE L[E]IGHT[B]
AS YOU [F#]ARE IN THE LIGHT[G#m]
[E] [B]
[F#]I WANNA SHINE LIKE THE STARS IN THE HEAVENS
OH, LORD[E] BE MY LIFE AND BE MY[B] SALVATION[F#][G#m]
CAUSE ALL I WA[E]NT IS TO BE IN THE[F#] LIGHT[G#m]
CAUSE ALL [E]I WANT IS TO BE IN [F#]THE LIGHT[G#m]
THE DISEASE OF SELF RUNS THROUGH MY BLOOD
IS A CANCER FATAL TO MY SOUL
EVERY ATTEMPT ON MY BEHALF HAS FAILED
TO BRING THIS SICKNESS UNDER CONTROL
HONESTY OVERCOMES ME
(THERE’S NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE)
THE SECRETS THAT DID RUN ME
(IN YOUR PRESENCE ARE DIFFUSED)
PRIDE HAS NO POSITION
(AND RICHES HAVE NO WORTH)
THE FAME THAT ONCE DID COVER ME
(HAS BEEN SENTENCED TO THIS EARTH)
HAS BEEN SENTENCED TO THIS EARTH
(chorus)
