A2      B 		           A2/E
I am the only one to blame for this,
A2	    B		       F#m7(4)
Somehow it all adds up the same,
A2		B		A2/E
Soaring on the wings of selfish pride,

I flew too high
	    A2    B	F#m7(4)
and like, Icarus I collide
	C#m7		Bsus	         A2
With a world I try so hard to leave behind,
            C#m7        Bsus	             A2
To rid myself of all but love to give and die,

            B 		   A2/E
To turn away and not become,
A2	 B		     F#m9           F#m7(4)
Another nail to pierce the skin of One who loves,
           A2               B
More deeply than the oceans,
             F#m7(4)		             A2           B  		F#m7(4)
More abundant than the tears of a world embracing ev'ry heartache
C#m7	           B		 A2
Can I be the one to sacrifice,
           C#m7		B		A2
Or grip the spear and watch the blood and water flow?

(Chorus)
       C#m7      E 		          A2
To love You - take my world apart
			  C#m7
To need You - I am on my knee
	         E		         A2
To love You - take my world apart
		           B/A   C#m7
To need You - broken on my knees

A2               B                            A2/E
All said and done I stand alone,
A2	       B	           F#m7(4)
Amongst remains of a life I should not own.
A2                B	          A2/E
It takes all I am to believe,
           A2              B 		F#m7
In the mercy that covers me.
C#m7		Bsus	          A2
Did You really have to die for me.
           C#m7
All I am for all You are,
		Bsus                                      A2
Cause what I need and what I believe are worlds apart.  I pray

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)
C#m7				Bsus
I look beyond the empty cross forgetting what my life
	      Amaj7
has cost and wipe away the crimson stains and dull the
		        C#m7
nails that still remain.  More and more I need You now,
Bsus				         Amaj7
I owe You more each passing hour.  The battle between
					        C#m7
grace and pride.  I gave up not so long ago.  So, steal
			  Bsus
my heart and take the pain.  Wash the feet cleanse my
	   A2
pride.  Take the selfish take the weak and all the things I
	          C#m7			   Bsus
cannot hide.  Take the beauty take my tears, sin-soaked
			A2
heart, and make it Yours.  Take my world apart, take it
			C#m7
now, take it now.  And serve the ones that I despise
                        To	          love                  You
           E		           B/E   A2
speak the words I can't deny.  Watch the world I used to
           take        my       world apart
			   To    need              You
				       C#m7
know, fall to dust and thrown away.  I look beyond the
	  I        am               on     my         knees
			            To          love        You
		E		          B/E           A2
empty cross forgetting what my life has cost.  So, wipe
	            take            my      world        apart
					To      need

away the crimson stains and dull the nails that still
				broken           on
               You
       B/A          C#m7                          	          Bsus
remain.  So, steal my heart and take the pain, take the
          my           knees
           To           love	        You
	  B		A2
selfish take the weak, and all the things I cannot hide.
		To          need               You
			           C#m7
Take the beauty, take my tears.  Take my world apart.
		On             my      knees
			    To       love            You
       Bsus	   B	A2
Take my world apart.  And I pray.  And I pray.  And I
		   To need       You                            on
           C#m7    Bsus            B           A2
pray.                Take my world apart.
My     knees
		B	A2/C#
Worlds apart.
