Story Behind the Song
The words were give to me by John Clough, a bass player friend. Sad and haunting, but at the same time.... full of hope. Beautiful melody!
Lyrics
Intro G, Em, Am, D (x2)
G D/F#
So you’re sticking needles in your arms again,
Em G D
Crying inside for some freedom from pain,
C G
How did I get to this place,
C Dsus D
How could I leave the one that loves me?
Bm Em Am Dsus D
Oh God, where are You now, Oh God, why can’t I find You?
Bm Em Am D G
My God, where are you now? My God, where can You be?
So you’re sleeping with somebody new again,
Crying inside for some freedom from pain,
How did I get to this place,
How could I leave the one that loves me?
CHORUS
Bm C Am D
Bridge So you’re tired of hitting your head against the wall,
Bm C Am D
Crying inside for someone that’s not there,
Em Am7 D
Oh... Jesus, come to rest with me,
Em Am7 Bm C Bm Am7/C D
Oh... Jesus, come and live in my heart.
Clough, J./Campbell, D.
