Every Grain Of Sand Acoustic Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

D G 4x

 In the Dtime of my conGfession, in the Dhour of my deepest Gneed

 When the Dpool of tears beGneath my feet Aflood every newborn seed

 There's a Ddying voice withGin me Dreaching out someGwhere

DToiling in the Gdanger and in the Amorals of despair.

 Don't Ahave the inclination to look Dback on any misAtake

 Like Cain, I now behold this chain of eDvents that I must Abreak

 In the Dfury of the Gmoment I can Dsee the master's Ghand

 In Devery leaf that Gtrembles, in Aevery Ggrain of Dsand.

 Oh, the Dflowers of indulGgence and the Dweeds of yesterGyear

 Like Dcriminals, they have Gchoked the breath of Aconscience and good cheer

 The Dsun beat down uGpon the steps of Dtime to light the Gway

 To Dease the pain of Gidleness and the Amemory of decay.

 I Agaze into the doorway of Dtemptation's angry Aflame

 And every time I pass that way I Dalways hear my Aname

 Then Donward in my Gjourney I Dcome to underGstand

 That Devery hair is Gnumbered like Aevery Ggrain of Dsand.

Break

 I have Dgone from rags to Griches in the Dsorrow of the Gnight

 In the Dviolence of a Gsummer's dream, in the Achill of a wintry light

 In the Dbitter dance of Gloneliness Dfading into Gspace

 In the Dbroken mirror of Ginnocence on Aeach forgotten face.

 I Ahear the ancient footsteps like the Dmotion of the Asea

 Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other Dtimes it's only Ame

 I am Dhanging in the Gbalance of the Dreality of Gman

 Like Devery sparrow Gfalling, like Aevery Ggrain of Dsand.
