Flood (Acoustic)
Jars of Clay

(if you want to play this the right way, this is the way to do it. I talked to the band members about this one.)

1 2 3 4 5

INTRO: 1 2 3 4 (x2)

VERSE: 1 3 4 palm muted
Rain rain on my face
It hasn`t stopped
Raining for days
My world is a flood
Slowly I become
One with the mud

CHORUS: 1 2 3 4 (x4) then end with 5
But if I can`t swim after 40 days
And my mind is crushed
By the crashing waves
Lift me up so high
That I cannot fall
Lift me up
Lift me up-when I`m falling
Lift me up-I`m weak and I`m dying
Lift me up-I need you to hold me
Lift me up-and keep me from drowning again

VERSE
Down pour on my soul
Splashing in the ocean
I`m losing control
Dark sky all around
Can`t feel my feet
Touching the ground

CHORUS

BRIDGE: 1 2 3 4 (finger-picking)
Calm the storms that drench my eyes
And dry the streams still flowing
Casting down all waves of sin
And guilt that overthrow me

CHORUS(x2) end with 5
