   E5   A2 Amaj9 Bsus4  B*   C#m7? F#m7 F#*

Verse 1:

A2 	   B*	      A2
I am the only one to blame for this
A2  	    B* 	 	    F#m7
Somehow it all adds up the same   
A2 		B* 		  A2
Soaring on the wings of selfish pride,
Flew too high,
         A2      B*       F#m7 
And like Icarus, I collide
	C#m7 		Bsus4 	  B*       A2  
With a world I tried so hard to leave behind
   C#m7          Bsus4  B* 
to rid myself of all but love
   A2              (pause)
To give and die

Verse 2: (same chords as verse 1)

A2 	   B*	        A2
To turn away and not become
A2  	 B* 	 	    F#m7
Another nail to pierce the skin of One Who loved
	A2 	      B* 	      A2
More deeply than the oceans, more abundant than the tears
       A2      B*          F#m7 
Of a world embracing every heartache
C#m7 	     Bsus4   B*    A2  
Can I be the one to sacrifice?
   C#m7		       Bsus4     B* 	     A2
Or grip the spear and watch the blood and water flow...

Chorus:
   C#m7       E5              	A2
to love you - take my world apart
A2                    B* C#m7
To need you – I am on my knees
   C#m7       E5		 A2
To love you – take my world apart
 A2                      B* C#m7 (Bsus4) (B*) (A2) 
To need you - Broken on my knees... 

(pause)

Verse 3: (same as verses 1 and 2)
A2 	      B*	     A2
All said and done, I stand alone
A2  	    B* 	 	F#m7
Amongst remains of a life I should not own
   A2 	        B*      A2
It takes all I am to believe
       A2      	   B*          F#m7 
In the mercy that covers me
C#m7 	       Bsus4    B*     A2  
Did You really have to die for me?
     C#m7		          Bsus4             B* 
All I am for all you are, what I need and what I believe
    A2              
Are worlds apart...

(chorus)

A2    C#m7 (Bsus4) (B*) (A2)
On my knees... 


Bridge: (begin guitar 2 riff here. Play it at least twice. Some
of the time, it should overlap with guitar one strumming, which
you’ll definitely want to be doing by “Take my beauty.”)

I look beyond the empty cross
Forgetting what my life has cost  
I wipe away the crimson stains
And dull the nails that still remain
C#m7
More and more, I need You now
  Bsus4             B*
I owe you more each passing hour
Amaj7              A2          
The battle between grace and pride
Amaj7
I gave up not so long ago
   C#m7
So steal my heart and take the pain
    Bsus4             B*        Bsus4
And wash the feet and cleanse my pride
Amaj7                  A2         
Take the selfish, take the weak
    Amaj9
And all the things I cannot hide
C#m7
Take my beauty, take my tears
Bsus4              B*       Bsus4
Sin ensoaked heart, make it Yours
A2
Take my world apart
Amaj7         A2
Take it now, take it now
     C#m7
And serve the ones that I despise 
E5
Speak the words I can’t deny (To love You - Take my world apart)
B*      A2
Watch the world I used to love (To need You) 
Fall to dust and thrown away (Broken on my knees)
 C#m7
I look beyond the empty cross, (To love You)
E5                              B*
Forgetting what my life has cost (Take my world apart)
   A2                         Amaj7
To wipe away the crimson stains (To need You)
    A2                               (*B)
And dull the nails that still remain (Broken on my knees)
    C#m7
So steal my heart and take the pain 
Bsus4                 B*  
Take the selfish, take the weak
    A2
And all the things I cannot hide
Take my beauty, take my tears (On my knees)
C#m7                 Bsus4           B*
Take my world apart. Take my world apart.
A2
I pray. I pray I pray... 
        C#m7     Bsus4   B*    A2 
(On my knees...) Take my world apart
(Pause)          A2 B* (F#*) <-strum the last chord once
Worlds apart...
