Standard Tuning
Capo 3rd Fret
This is how I play this song, I think it sounds pretty good. I believe "officially" the
verses are played slightly different, but I play them both the same. Also "officially"
are alot more chords written down, but I leave a few out to make it easier to strum
of pluck like the actual song.
D
He is here for the broken
Bm7GAsus
life to the one who is undone
D
He is peace to the wounded
Bm7Em7Asus
hope for the helpless one
G
He is here
AsuA
He is here
CHORUS
DAsusG
Be still my soul be still
Em7DA
Be still my soul be still
DAmG
Wait patiently upon the Lord
Em7AsusD
Be still my soul be still
I strum A-G-Asus-A through here
D
When the waves rise against me
Bm7GAsus
and the wind tries to draw me away
D
I will stand on the mountain
Bm7Em7Asus
safe in your arms I will sing... I will sing
CHORUS
G
Be still... and know he is God
AsusA
He is here He is here
There are some subtle chords changes in the Bridge within the G spectrum, but I cant
them down, I usually just ad-lib dropping a few strings off the G until I can make it to
Asus.
The ending is played the same as the chorus except I personally play the last line like so:
Em7AsusG
Be still my soul, be still....
