[N] [Eb] [E] [Eb]
[Db] [Ab] [Am] [Ab]
A
[Ebm]
[A] [Ab] [F]
merciful [Ab] father, [Abm] unwrapped in a robe of light, [Ab] clothed in your [Gb] glory, [Abm] that spreads [A] its wings over [Ebm] my soul.
[F] May I be worthy.
[Ab]
Ah.
There's not a morning I begin without a thousand questions running through my mind.
That I [A] don't try [Ab] to find the reason and the logic in the world that God [Fm]
designed.
The reason [Ab] why [Eb] a bird [D] was given [Gm] wings.
If not to fly and praise the [C] sky with every song it [F]
sings.
What's right or wrong?
[Abm] [B] Where I [Bbm] belong?
Within [G] the scheme of things.
[C]
[G] [Bb]
[Am]
[Ab] [Eb]
[Fm] [Eb] And why have [Ab] eyes that see and arms that reach unless you're meant to know there's something [Gb] more?
[Ab] If not to hunger for the meaning of it all, then tell me what a soul is [Fm] for.
Why have the wings unless [D] you're meant to [Gm]
fly?
And tell me please why have a [C] mind if not to question [Fm] why?
And tell [Bbm] me why is it written what it is [Eb] I'm meant to be?
That I [Ab] can't dare have the chance to pick the fruit of [Db] every tree.
Or have my [Gm] share of every sweet [C] imagined possibility.
[Cm] Just tell me [Db] where.
[Eb] Tell [Ab] me where.
[Ebm]
[Ab] If I were only meant to tend the nest then why does my imagination [Abm] sail
across [Ab] the mountains and the seas beyond the make-believe of any fairy [Fm] tale?
Why have the thirst [Cm] if not to [D] drink the [Gm]
wine?
And what a waste to have a [C] taste of things that can't be bought.
[Fm] And tell [Bbm] me why is it written what it is I'm [Eb] meant to be?
That I can't [Ab] dare to find the meanings [Db] in the [Ab] mornings that I [Db] see.
Or have my [Gm] share of every sweet [C] imagined possibility.
Just tell me [Db] where.
[Bb] Where is it [Eb] written?
[C] Tell me [Fm]
where.
[E]
Or if it's [Eb] written
[Dbm]
anywhere.
