_ When I was a boy each week, _ on Sunday we would go to church.
_ _ We'd pay [A] attention to the priest, _ _ as he [E] would read the holy word.
_ _ He'd consecrate the holy bread, _ and everyone [B] would kneel [C#] and bow.
[B] But today [A] the only difference is, [E] _ _ everything is holy now.
_ _ _ _ [C#] _ [C#m]
Everything, [B] everything, _ _ [E] everything is holy now. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ When I was in Sunday school, _ _ we would learn about the time
when Moses [A] split the sea in two, and Jesus [E] made the water wine.
_ _ I remember feeling sad, that miracles don't happen [B] still.
But [E]
now I can't keep track, _ cause everything's a miracle. _ _ _ _
Everything, _ _ _ [B] everything, _
[E] _ [A] everything's a miracle.
_ [B] _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ [E] Wine _ from water [A] is not so small, _
[E] but an even bigger miracle
_ [D]
is that anything [E] is here at all. _
_ And so, _ _ _ the [A] challenging thing [E] becomes, _ _ not to [F#m] look for _ miracles,
[D] _
but finding [C#] where there isn't one.
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ Holy water [E] was rare at best, _ it barely wet my [C#] fingertips.
_ _ But now I [A] have to hold my [E] breath, _ like I'm swimming in a sea of air.
_ It used to be a world out there, _ _ heaven's second rate hanged me down.
[B] But now [E] I walk it with [A] a [E] reverent air, _ [A] cause [E] everything is holy now. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [B] _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Read _ _ a question [A] in [E] child's space, _ say it's not a testament.
_ [D] _
_ [E] That'd be very hard to say.
_ _ _ _ See _ _ _ another [A] new morning come, [E] _ say it's not a testament.
_ [D] _
_ I'll tell [B] you that [C#] it can't be [E] done. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ This morning I sat, _ I stood, _ _ _ and I saw a little red-winged [A] bird _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] shining [A] like a burning bush.
_ _ _ _ _ He [E] was singing like a scripture verse. _ _
_ _ _ It made me want to bow my head.
_ I remember when church let out, _ _ _ _ _ how [A] things have _ changed since then. _ _ _ _ _
[B] Cause everything is _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ holy now. _ _
_ _ _ _ It used to be a world out there, _ _ heaven's second rate hanged me down.
But now I walk it [A] with a reverent air, _ [E] _ cause everything is holy now. _ _
Everything, _ _ _ everything, _ _ everything [A] is holy [B] now. _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
That's it for Peter Mayer.
That thing has got a voice, _ it's so different.
It's me.
