[Am]
[Bm] [Em]
I used to know how to walk on [Am] water I used to be so unafraid
[Bm] I could save the weakest tyrant [Em] And I could knight the proudest slave
I could give riches to beggars [Am] And give love to the one who hates
[Bm] I could tempt a horse so frozen [Em] And I could torture the strength of fate
I used to know how to walk on [Am] water A king of kings, they knew me well
[Bm] I could give sight to blind [Em] men And make a mute man sing in hell
But now I watch with awe and [D] wonder Doubt [Am] has now befallen me
[Bm] I ask the Lord to show me mercy [Em] And to give me sympathy
[G] Forgive me now, [D] my useless thunder [Em] When I [Am] was such a [G] dynamo
I am here [D] and I am humble [Am] For I [E] know not [G] which way to go
I [Em] used to know how to walk on [E] water [Am] I could give a dead heart life
[Bm] I could murder the joy of Satan [E] And [Em] make his mistress be my wife
I would be a dream of cowards [A] And they [Am] would never resemble me
[Bm] I could see them doubt me under [Em] As I set each one free
Now I just sit and wonder [Am] What illness has befallen me
[Bm] A sicker mind makes me surrender [Em] To this world of [G] vacancy
Forgive me [D] now, my useless thunder [Am] When I was [G] such a dynamo
I am here [D] and I am humble [Am] For I know not [G] which way to go
[Em] I [Am]
[Bm] [Em]
[Am]
[G] [Bm] [Em]
used to know how to walk on [Am] water Now I sink in the dirt
[Bm] No kind sun or holy laughter [Em] Seems to reach beyond the hurt
I used to know how to walk on [Am] water I used to be at peace with [Bm] love
And all its strength and all its power [Em] Would lift me up so high above
A burning star, a holy [Am] wonder Women would rush to be with [Bm] me
But now I'm [B] lost inside the thunder [Em] Of pain which holds insanity
[G] Forgive me [D] now, my useless thunder [Am] When I was such [G] a dynamo
I am here [D] and I am humble [Am] For I know not [G] which way to go
Forgive me now, [D] my useless thunder [Am] When I was such a [G] dynamo
I am here [D] and I am humble [Am] For I know [Em] not which [G] way to go
Forgive me now, [D] my useless [Am] thunder [G] For I know not which way to go
[D] Useless thunder Now [A] I am humble
I [G] know not which way to go

[D] Useless thunder Now [A] I am humble
I [G] know not which way to go
