[Intro]
 
|C / Am / |F / / / |
 
|C / Am7 / |F / / / |
 
[Verse 1]
 
C Am7 F
The heart is a mystery
C Am7 F
Stumble out of bed each day and struggle to be free
C Am7 F
Stood by an ocean raging blue
C Am7 F
Big wave cracked the sidewalk and I fell down there with you
C Am F
Fell in with you
 
[Verse 2]
 
C Am7 F
I scoured the land and the sunset glow
C Am F
You think you know my friend but you just don't know
C Am F
That's why the heart is a mystery
C Am F
Break it in two and you'll see things you couldn't see before
 
|C / Am7 / |F / / / |
 
[Chorus]
 
G Am7 F
And I searched for you
G
Found and lost you on the way
Am F
And I searched for you
G
Over the hill of a better day
Am7 F
And I searched for you
G
In every mile I couldn't comprehend
Am7 F
And I searched for you
G
And I'll do it again
 
[Verse 3]
 
C Am F
Should only frame you in a metaphor
C Am7 F
Not cast you off in our own image anymore
C Am7 F
Big questions etched across the sky
C Am7 F
The weight and reason of everything we'd like to know
 
|C / Am7 / |F / / / |
 
[Chorus]
G Am F
And I searched for you
G
Found and lost you on the way
Am F
And I searched for you
G
Over the hill of a better day
Am F
And I searched for you
G
In every mile I couldn't comprehend
Am
And I searched for you
G
And I'll do it again
 
[Bridge]
 
| Am7 / / / | F / / / |
 
| Am7 / / / | F / / / |
 
Am7 F
Saw the blessing saw the curse
Am
I've seen my best and I've seen my worst
F
Seen a lot of beauty seen a little hate
Am
The great indifference and a twist of fate
Am7 F
Seen a lot of passion and empathy
Am7
The power and greed of the me me me
F
Seen a lot of suffering seen a lot of good
Am
Felt the big life love of a neighbourhood
F
A needle in the arm and the sadness grow
Am7
The holy and the hidden and the outcast soul
F
Seen a lot of surplus but in the wrong place
G Am7 F
And in the eyes of the broken I thought I saw your face
 
[Chorus]
 
G Am7 F
And I searched for you
G
Found and lost you on the way
Am7 F
And I searched for you
G
Over the hill of a better day
Am7 F
And I searched for you
G
Now I'm stranded here in a passion play
Am7 F
And I searched for you
G
Give me a sign I'll be there straight away
Am7 F
And I searched for you
G
Stood in line 'til I don't know when
Am7 F
And I searched for you
G
In every mile I couldn't comprehend
Am F
And I searched for you
G
And I'll do it again

Stood by an ocean raging blue

And I searched for you
