Great Expectations

CD: Speechless
c1999 Sparrow Song
Tab: Steve Cruickshank
*

This song is played tuned down half 
a step, but I try to avoid that
whenever possible.  You can cheat by
 putting a capo on 2 on standard
tuned guitar, but Ill include both 
ways for those who want to play it
like on the CD.

C   Em7              Am
The morning finds me here at 
heaven's door
C  Em7              Am
A place I've been so many times 
before
C   Em7              Am
Familiar thoughts and phrases start 
to flow
C   Em7        Am               
And carry me to places that I 
    Fmaj7
know so well
C   Em7            Am
But dare I go where I don't 
understand
C   Em7        Am
And do I dare remember where I am
C Em7             Am
I stand before the great eternal 
throne
C   Em7            Am
The one that God himself is seated 
on
