Verse 1:
Em
Is our world spinning backwards?
D
What has brought about this change?
CG
Can't you see that people aren't the same?
Em
I wish I were dreamin'
D
And could wake up from my sleep
CG
And find us all the way we used to be.
FC
'Cause the love that used to be is dying
FCC
Is anybody even trying?
FC
And I don't know how, I don't know why

But something is my soul is crying

Em
One pair of hands,
D
Broke some bread and washed some feet
CG
Opened eyes and soothed an angry sea,
Em
Belonged to a man
D
Who could see the deepest need
CG
And showed us the way it has to be
FC
'Cause he knew the price that love requires
FCC
And he laid down His own desires
FC
He stretched out His hands to save His friends
DDsusD
And said no other love is higher (Listen to me now, singin')
