Intro -x2-: Gbm7  E5   E

D         E                Gbm              A               D
  Here I am, Lord, and I'm drowning in Your sea of forgetfulness
D               E           Gbm            A                   D
 The chains of yesterday surround me, I yearn for peace and rest
D                E                Gbm              A              D
I don't want to end up where You found me, and it echoes in my mind,
                  E
Keeps me awake tonight


D                E             Gbm          A                D
  I know You've cast my sin as far as the east is from the west
D       E                  Gbm   A                D
And I stand before You now as though I've never sinned
D            E                 Gbm           A             D
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this way

Chorus 1:
D              E               Gbm7                      Bsus4
Jesus can You show me just how far the east is from the west?
               Bm
'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been
     D            E
Come rising up in me again
       Gbm7                       Bsus4
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest
                 Bm                           D
'Cause You know just how far the east is from the west
                  E
From one scarred hand to the other

Interlude -x2-: Gbm7  E

D             E             Gbm               A             D
 I start the day, the war begins, endless reminding of my sin
D          E                Gbm                  A            D
  Time and time again Your truth is drowned out by the storm I'm in
D            E                 Gbm           A             D
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this way


D              E               Gbm7                      Bsus4
Jesus can You show me just how far the east is from the west?
               Bm
'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been
     D            E
Come rising up in me again
       Gbm7                       Bsus4
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest
                 Bm                           D
'Cause You know just how far the east is from the west
                  E
From one scarred hand to the other


A                        E                               Gbm7
 I know You've washed me white, turned my darkness into light
                       D                                      A
 I need Your peace to get me through, to get me through this night
-xA-x                      E                               Gbm7
 I can't live by what I feel, but by the truth Your word reveals
                           D                             Gbm     Bsus4
 and I'm not holding on to You, but You're holding on to me
                      Gbm7    E
 You're holding on to me

Chorus 2:
                         A                         E
Jesus, You know just how far the east is from the west
         Bm
I don't have to see the man I've been
     D            E
Come rising up in me again
        A                         E
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest -in Your mercy I find rest-
                 Bm                           D
'Cause You know just how far the east is from the west
                 E  
From one scarred hand to the other


Gbm7           A
    Just how far, the east is from the west?
Gbm7           A
    Just how far...?
       E                      Gbm7
-From one scarred hand to the other-


Gbm7           A
    Just how far, the east is from the west?
Gbm7           D
    Just how far...? -From one scarred hand to the other-
