Intro:
EADCGE
E A2
You thing I'd have it down by now
D2 C2 G E
Been practicin' for thirty years
E A2
I should have walked a thousand miles
D2 C2 G E
So what am I still doin' here
A2
Reachin' out for that same old piece of forbidden fruit
E
I slip and fall and I knock my halo loose
A2 B2
Somebody tell me what's a boy supposed to do?
Chorus
E
Cause I get so clumsy
B2
I get so foolish
C#2
I get so stupid
A2
And then I feel so useless
E
But you're sayin' You love me
B2
And you're still gonna hold me
C#2
And that You wanna be near me
A
'Cause You're makin' me holy
D2 C2 GE
You're still makin' me holy, yeah
I'm ganna get it right this time
I'll be strong and I'll make You proud
I've prayed that prayer a thousand times
But the rooster crows and my tears roll down (again)
Then You remind me You made me from the dust
And I can never, no never, be good enough
And that You're not gonna let that come between us
Chorus
C2
From where I stand
D2 E
Your holiness is up so high I can never reach it
C2 D2
My only hope is to fall on Jesus
