[ F#+A, C (x4) G+E, C (x4) ] (x2)
D A D I will arise: Am G B D A7 D in the depths, I will open my eyes; Em/G G Am/E G Em D D/A A as my breath almost fails me, survive. Verse B: D C Wait--there's something unclear, B E A there's something I fear now drawing close. C#m A/E Could it be you? Whose is that voice? F#m7 B Is it now time to make a choice? E E6 D Ah--that irrational pain! Bm/D F A/E F# This ridiculous brain now bursts with joy. D Bm Bm7 Bm6 Could it be me? Could it be now? A/E E/B D/A E Should I begin to take my vows?
the organ notes are: E A D, E A C# in a loop. Bass is a constant A.
D A D I will return: Am G B D A7 D as I live, as I breathe, as I burn Em/G G Am/E G Em I swear I will come through,
D with my hands stretching out in the dark, A with my eye pressed up tight to the glass, D D/A A D wondering if it's all been true. Coda: D A7 D Em/G B Ebdim6 Em G/D D A A7 (and repeat).
