Shipwreck Chords


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...

Shipwreck Lyrics:

Intro x4

Verse 1

I built a fortress
With a hundred thousand faces
I'll keep it safe
With a hundred thousand more
But these masks are wearing thin
As You draw me in

I spent my time
On the empty and the fleeting
I spent my life
On much less than I'd dreamed
But I'm reaching out to you
To make me new

Chorus

'Cause I am just a beggar here at Your door
I am just a shipwreck here on Your shore
I come empty handed
Ready to see
Your life in me changing who I've been
To who I need to be

Verse 2
You tell me my story
As You swift between the pages
I feel redemption
In the space between each turn
Could You take me in Your arms
And tell it just once more
Could You take me in Your arms
And tell it just once more

Chorus

'Cause I am just a beggar here at Your door
I am just a shipwreck here on Your shore
I come empty handed
Ready to see
Your life in me changing who I've been
'Cause I am just a beggar here at Your door
I am just a shipwreck here on Your shore
I come empty handed
Ready to see
Your life in me changing who I've been

To who I need to be...
