Intro x4
Bm D G
Verse 1
Bm D
I built a fortress
G
With a hundred thousand faces
Bm D
I'll keep it safe
G
With a hundred thousand more
Em
But these masks are wearing thin
A
As You draw me in
Bm D
I spent my time
G
On the empty and the fleeting
Bm D
I spent my life
G
On much less than I'd dreamed
Em
But I'm reaching out to you
A
To make me new
Chorus
Bm D G
'Cause I am just a beggar here at Your door
Bm D G
I am just a shipwreck here on Your shore
Bm D
I come empty handed
G
Ready to see
Em A
Your life in me changing who I've been
Bm D G
To who I need to be
Verse 2
Bm D
You tell me my story
G
As You swift between the pages
Bm D
I feel redemption
G
In the space between each turn
Em
Could You take me in Your arms
A
And tell it just once more
Em
Could You take me in Your arms
A
And tell it just once more
Chorus
Bm D G
'Cause I am just a beggar here at Your door
Bm D G
I am just a shipwreck here on Your shore
Bm D
I come empty handed
G
Ready to see
Em A
Your life in me changing who I've been
Bm D G
'Cause I am just a beggar here at Your door
Bm D G
I am just a shipwreck here on Your shore
Bm D
I come empty handed
G
Ready to see
Em A
Your life in me changing who I've been
To who I need to be...
