AMY RAY - CRYING IN THE WILDERNESS
Lyrics are approximate as I can't really hear what she's saying during the chorus!
Play along with the song to get the timing of the chord changes.
Capo 4
F#
C#sus
Sent you a thousand words
C#
but they only added up to nothing
C#sus
So I'm calling it back
C#
to the... honour to hold me...
C#sus F# G#
do you have to be the rolling train
C#sus F# G#
do you have to be the wounded bird
C#sus F# G#
do you have to be the only voice I hear
F#
crying in the wilderness
C#
Wrote you a thousand songs
C#sus
and not one of them was for singing
C#
Cause I get it all wrong
C#sus
Man I guess I really just should have been listening
C#sus F# G#
do you have to be the rolling train
C#sus F# G#
do you have to be the wounded bird
C#sus F# G#
do you have to be the only voice I hear
F#
crying in the wilderness
A#m F# C# G#
Cause I really knew back then I was just a simple ten ...
A#m F# C# G#
Step to the...
A#m F# C# G#
Petty officer of failure... acting for a jailer...
A#m F# C# G#
I heard it.... have some...
F#
C#sus
I prayed to God they'd let me keep it,
C#
I prayed to God they'd take it away
C#sus
I prayed to God they'd let me have it
C#
and save it for a rainy day
C#sus F# G#
do you have to be the rolling train
C#sus F# G#
do you have to be the wounded bird
C#sus F# G#
do you have to be the only voice I hear
F#
crying in the wilderness
G#
crying in the wilderness
A#m F# C# G#
Cause I really knew back then I was just a simple ten ...
A#m F# C# G#
Step to the...
