Intro:
Em G6 A A2 (2x)
 
Verse 1:
    Em             G6
A moment of eternity
 
    A               A2
Is all I care to know
 
         Em                    G6
But I keep myself from finding it
 
                  A                     A2
Cause I'm scared of where I go
 
   C
I need to see
 
Chorus:
              A              G6
That my faith will not fly
 
                C                  E
When my heart is held down
 
            A                 G6
By the weight of my mind
 
             C                   E
Caging thoughts that I know
 
             A
Must be free
 
Verse 2:
     Em           G6
A paradox of destiny
 
      A                A2
My life inside a frame
 
Em                        G6
I could choose my liberty
 
              A                   A2
But then I'm the one to blame
 
           C
I must learn to see
 
Chorus:
              A              G6
That my faith will not fly
 
                C                 E
When my heart is held down
 
            A                G6
By the weight of my mind
 
             C                   E
Caging thoughts that I know
 
 
                A              G6
When my faith will not fly
 
             C                 E
And my heart is held down
 
            A                G6            
By the weight of my mind
 
             C                   E
Caging thoughts that I know
 
              A       A  A2  C  G6  C  G6  C  A2
Must be free
 
Verse 3:
         Em                    G6
I can trust my God with all my might
 
          A                  A2
In the light of what I know
 
           Em                      G6
But if I close the door on doubt I find
 
              A                   A2
That the light can never grow
 
 C
Help me see
 
Chorus:
              A              G6
That my faith will not fly
 
                C                 E
When my heart is held down
 
            A                 G6
By the weight of my mind
 
             C                   E
Caging thoughts that I know
 
 
                A              G6
When my faith will not fly
 
              C                E
And my heart is held down
 
            A                G6
By the weight of my mind
 
             C                  E
Caging thoughts that I know
 
              A      G6
Must be free
 
                C      E
It must be free
 
Ending:
