Verse 1

  Old as the hills, new e v e r y d a y

 It’s in the bones like it’s DNA

 First taste is sweet ‘til it rots in your mouth

 Another old friend who rats you out

 All of the time in this life

 Can’t loose the ties that bind

 They shackle our feet, we trip, we fall

 We crawl

[2/4] (The Csus’s are played on the

 | . | . | . | offbeat.)

I was born in the mess of it all

Chorus

[4/4]

 Then you rescued me, rescued me

Lord, with a touch of your hand

 Another captive free again

 Who else in heaven could do this but you?

 You rescued me, rescued me

Lord, with a love out of mind

 Oh, you know I love it when

 Everyday I am rescued again

Verse 2

  Over the years your nature’s way

 Is turning wrongs into roles you play

 Caught in a spell that’s o v e r c a s t

 You gain perspective, it doesn’t last

 All of the time in this life

 Can’t loose the ties that blind you

 They’re new everyday, old as the fall

 The fall

[2/4]

  And I was born in the mess of it all

Chorus

Bridge

 Every day, every way, every

  Every cheap imitation

 All of my i m a g i n a t i o n

 Even my self-preservation

 Is yours in time
