---------------------------------------------
This song is done on piano on the album, but I've written it down for guitar.
You can play with a picking pattern and it sounds ok.

Intro: C
C Dm G
I am a servant, I am listening for my name
C Dm F
I sit here waiting, I've been looking at the game
F C
That I've been playing, And I've been staying much the same
Dm F G
When you are lonely, You're the only one to blame.
C Dm G
I am a servant, I am waiting for your call
C Dm F
I've been unfaithful, so I sit here in the hall
F C
How can you use me when I have never given all
Dm F G
How can you choose me when you know I quickly fall
C C7
So you feed my soul, and you make me grow,
F C
And you let me know you love me.
C C7
And I'm worthless now, but I've made a vow
F C
I will only bow before thee
Dm Dsus addC#
O please use me, O I'm lonely
C Dm G
I am a servant, getting ready for my part
C Dm F
There's been a change, a rearrangement in my heart
F C
At last I'm learning there's no returning once I start
Dm F
To live's a privelage, To love is such an art
F
But I need your help to start.
Dm G
O please purify my heart
F C
I am your servant.
