Intro 2x: Em  G  D 

Verso 1: 

C/E   D/F#             Em
Here I am, Lord and I'm drowning   
        G               C/E
In Your sea of forgetfulness 
             D/F#        Em
The chains of yesterday surround me 
  G                  C/E
I yearn for peace and rest 
                D               Em
I don't want to end up where You found me 
       G/B         C           D/F#       C
And it echoes in my mind, keeps me awake tonight 

Verso 2: 

C/E          D/F#          Em
I know You've cast my sin as far as 
      G                C/E
As the east is from the west 
     D/F#             Em
And I stand before You now as 
   G                C/E
As though I've never sinned 
           D                  Em          G/B
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away 
        C               D/F#
From You leaving me this way 
C
Jesus can You show me just how 

Refrão ------------- Em       G D
Far the east is from the west 
             Am
'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been 
C
Rising up in me again 
      Em                 G      D
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest 
        Am                      G/B       C
You know just how far the east is from the west 
                (D)
on Chorus repeat 
From one scarred hand to the other 

Instrumental: Em  D  Em  D

Verso 3: 

C/E         D/F#           Em
I start the day, the war begins 
         G             C/E
Endless reminding of my sin 
        D/F#           Em
Time and time again Your truth is drowned out 
G               C/E
By the storm I'm in 
       D                   Em         G/B
Today I feel like I'm just one mistake away 
        C               D/F#
From You leaving me this way 
C
Jesus can You show me just how 

(Refrão) 

Ponte:
 
G                     D/F#
I know You've washed me white 
                     Em
Turn my darkness into light 
                   G/C
I need Your peace to get me through 
   C                   G
To get me through this night 
                      Bm
I can't live by what I feel 
                           Em
About the truth Your Word reveals 
                         C
And I'm not holding on to You 
                        Em  D
But You're holding on to me 
                     Em D
You're holding on to me

Jesus, You know just how far the east is from the west 
       Em
I don't have to see the man I've been 
    G/C              C
Come rising up in me again 
      G                         D
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest (mercy I find rest) 
        Am                      G/B       C
You know just how far the east is from the west 

From one scarred hand to the other
