Capo 1
[Am]Once I stood alone so proud held myself above the crowd
[G]now i am low on the [Am]ground.
[Am]From here i look around to see what avenues belong to me
[G]I can't tell what ive f[Am]ound.
[Am]Now what [G]would You [F]have me do
[Am]i as[G]k you [F]please?
[Am]I wa[G]it to [Em]hear.[C]
[Am]The mother, and the matador, the mystic, all were here before,
[G]like me, to stare You [Am]down.
[Am]You appear without a face, disappear, but leave your trace,
[G]i feel your unseen [Am]frown.
[Am]Now what [G]would you [F]have me do
[Am]I as[G]k you [F]please?
[Am]i wa[G]it to [Em]hear
your [C]voice,
the [F]word,
you [G]say
i w[Em]ait to [C]see your sign
[G]would[F] i [G]
[Em]obey?
[Am]I look for you in heathered moor, the desert, and the ocean floor
[G]how low does one heart[Am] go.
[Am]looking for your fingerprints i find them in coincidence,
[G]and make my faith to [Am]grow.
[Am]Forgive me all my blindnesses my weakness and unkindnesses
[G]as yet unbending[Am] still.
[Am]struggling so hard to see my fist against eternity
[G]and will you break my w[Am]ill?
[Am]Now what [G]would you h[F]ave me do
[Am]i a[G]sk you [F]please?
[Am]i w[G]ait to[Em] hear
your [C]voice,
the [F]word
you [G]say
i [Em]wait to [C]see your sign
c[G]ould[F] i [G]
[Em]obey?
