_ _ _ [G] _ _ [A] _ _ [G] _
[A] I was a [D] boy with the high water pants, _ too shy to go to the dance.
So [Bm] I stayed at home [F#m] wishing on a falling [A] star. _ _ _ _
_ And [D] I listened to the radio _ _ and it hit me like a miracle.
When _ [Bm] I found that I [F#m] could sing and play [A] guitar. _ _ _ _
_ And [G] I finally felt like someone, though [A] my questions still [D] remain.
_ But [G] I've come to find my answers in [A] the echo of your name.
And Lord, [D] I thirst for you like [Bm] a man in the desert [F#m] needs water to drink.
[A] _
Oh, and [D] I cling to you like a drowning sailor [G] trying not to sink.
And [D] I want to trust in your [A] hand of love more [D] than what I feel [G] or think.
_ _ [D] I [G] really do.
_ [A] Oh, I thirst [D] for you.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ [A] _ _ [G] _ _ [A] _ [D] Yeah.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ [A] _ _ [G] _ _ [A] Well, [D] she walked that stage one night.
_ Oh, and I could feel the lightning strike.
_ _ [Bm] Well, it happened just [F#m] the way I always [A]
dreamed.
_ _ _ _ We [D] got married on a winter's day.
And we discovered along the way that [Bm] to stay in love [F#m] is harder than [A] it seems.
_ _ _ _ But [G] through all the times we've laughed or cried [A] or let each other [D] down,
_ _ _ [G]
Jesus is the heartbeat of [A] the true love we have found.
And Lord, [D] I thirst for you [Bm] like a man in the desert [F#m] needs water to drink.
[A] _ Oh, [D] and I cling to you like a drowning sailor [G]
trying not to sink.
_ [D] And I want to trust in your [A] hand of love [D] more than what I feel [G] or think. _ _ _
[D] I really [G] do.
_ _ [A] _
I thirst [D] for you. _ _ _
Woo-hoo.
_ [C] Oh, how I thirst [D] for you. _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] Oh, how I thirst [A] for you. _ _ _
_ And [D] when our baby girl arrived, _ oh, the air seemed _ electrified.
_ [Bm] You could almost feel [F#m] the rush of [A] angels' wings. _ _ _
_ And [D] when I kissed her tiny face, I stood trembling and amazed.
_ [Bm] And I understood [F#m] what being happy [A] means. _ _ _
_ _ [G] And I've always prayed from that first day [A] that she will [D] understand
_ _ [G] that the gift of life is not complete [A] until she takes your hand.
And Lord, [D] I thirst for you [Bm] like a man in the desert needs [F#m] water to drink.
[A] _
Oh, [D] and I cling to you like a drowning [G] sailor trying not to sink.
[Bm] _ [D] And I want to trust in your [A] hand of love [D] more than what I feel [G] or _ _ think.
[D] I really [G]
do.
[A] I thirst [D] for you.
I really [G]
do.
[A] I thirst for you.
[D] I really [G]
do.
_ _ [A] _ I [D] thirst for you.
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _
Oh, how _ I thirst [D] for you.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
Oh, how _ I thirst for you. _ _ _ _ _ _
