[Intro]
|D |Em |A |Dsus4 D |Bm |F#m |G D |Em A |
[Verse 1]
D D7
It’s happened again, the colourless sky
Bm Em D
Has dimmed me again and I’ve run out of why
D D7
Hank Williams is grieving, I’m scanning the Psalms
Bm G D
When Jesus was here they stilletoed his palms
Em F#m G A
And the pledge and the vow is ‘you find if you seek’
Em F#m G A
But what if you try and find nothing but bleak
[Chorus]
D
So turn me tender again
Em
Fold me into you
A
Turn me tender again
Dsus4 D
And mould me to new
Bm
Faith lost its promise
F#m
And bruised me deep blue
G D A
Turn me tender again
D
Through union with you
|D |Em |A |Dsus4 D |Bm |F#m |G D |Em A |
[Verse 2]
D D7
Let me lay with you now like that very first time
Bm Em D
I’ve had rooms full of dollars but I’m down to a dime
D D7
Though there’s wonder and awe in the mane of a lion
Bm G D
There’s nowhere to go and I’m chapters from Zion
Em F#m G A
Yet you’re still my cryptic and cherishing prayer
Em F#m G A
With serenity kisses that soothe and repair
[Chorus]
D
So turn me tender again
Em
Fold me into you
A
Turn me tender again
