Falling Short
View chords used in this chart
G7 C
Am I falling short or do I fly
B7 E
While I miss the mark do I hit the sky
G7 C
And in my wondering do I answer why
B7 E
I´m alive
To make a space - bushwhack a path -
Leave a sign - dodge the wrath
D A D E
Of myself and leave the math to God
(go on as above)
Falling short i´ve hit the spot
Of the place where I was shot
From the womb of my mother
I´ve fallen short but is there another
D A D
Place where I could be
E
Is short just the place for me to see
B
What I can do
E
What I´ve been given
B A
My holy view of hell an heaven
Am I falling short or do I fly
While I miss the mark do I hit the sky
In my wondering do I answer why
I´m alive
I´m alive
I´m alive
