Intro:
(F#m        A  E) x2


Verse 1:
D/E    E/F#                   F#m
Here I am, Lord and I'm drowning  
            A                     D/E
In Your sea of forgetfulness
                      E/F#            F#m
The chains of yesterday surround me
  A                             D/E
I yearn for peace and rest
                       E                          F#m
I don't want to end up where You found me
          A/B               D                  E/F#            D
And it echoes in my mind, keeps me awake tonight


Verse 2:
D/E                E/F#               F#m
I know You've cast my sin as far as
          A                       D/E
As the east is from the west
        E/F#                    F#m
And I stand before You now as
     A                         D/E
As though I've never sinned
                 E                       F#m               A/B
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away
               D                       E/F#
From You leaving me this way
D
Jesus can You show me just how


Chorus:
F#m                  A           E
Far the east is from the west
                     Bm
'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been
D
Rising up in me again
         F#m                          A       E
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest
               Bm                               A/B         D
You know just how far the east is from the west
                            (E) on chorus repeat
From one scarred hand to the other


Instrumental:
F#m      E       F#m        E


Verse 3:
D/E          E/F#                F#m
I start the day, the war begins
               A                     D/E
Endless reminding of my sin
               E/F#                 F#m
Time and time again Your truth is drowned out
A                       D/E
By the storm I'm in
            E                       F#m               A/B
Today I feel like I'm just one mistake away
               D                      E/F#
From You leaving me this way
D
Jesus can You show me just how


Repeat Chorus


Bridge:
A                                     E/F#
I know You've washed me white
                                   F#m
Turn my darkness into light
                                A/C
I need Your peace to get me through
     D                             A
To get me through this night
                               C#m
I can't live by what I feel
                                            F#m
About the truth Your work reveals
                                        D
And I'm not holding on to You
                                      F#m      E
But You're holding on to me
                                 F#m          E
You're holding on to me


Chorus (watch out, chords are different!)
                                        A                                 E/F#
Jesus, You know just how far the east is from the west
          F#m
I don't have to see the man I've been
         A/C                    D
Come rising up in me again
         A                                      E
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest (mercy I find rest)
               Bm                               A/B         D
You know just how far the east is from the west

From one scarred hand to the other

(Just how far, the east is from the west, just how far)
                                              F#m
From one scarred hand to the other
