Young Disciple

D                                
Aly, what is incessantly on your 
B7
mind?
                G
Well when I was 5, my mama told me 
that
A                       D
One day we're all gonna die
       G                   A      
Of all places, it was in a fast 
               D
food joint at night
     G                  F#m
That left me with a bad taste in my 
mouth
D                          
And a knack for existential   
G  A        D
spinning out

[Verse 2]
D
"How'd that come to pass?" You may 
ask
                             B7
As the full moon appeared to leer 
and loom
     G                 A           
Well on the stage of a church in a 
D
kiddie pool
           G        A     D
She and my dad were born again
G                 F#m      D    
I was an audience member beside 
          B7           G    
my little sister and I didn't 
  A     D
understand
    B7
And they were my age then, the age 
that I am

[Chorus]
     G       A             D
So I guess I get it better now
        G                  A      
Oh, the pangs of fear, the fear of
        D
 being alone
    G    A        D
Of dying young or growing old
           G                 A    
Before realizing the purpose of 
   D
your soul

[Verse 3]
D
It was with a milkshake in her hand 
that
                                B7
My mama mentioned the second coming
           G                  
That as believers, we would be 
 A
lifted to a
D
Brilliant kingdom in the sky
    G                   A
And I couldn't fathom a place of 
light
D
High above the desert night
    G                 F#m         
But as an impassioned follower of 
     D         B7
my beautiful mother
G          A     D
 I put all of my faith in her

[Chorus]
G             A                 
You and I, we both swing in and out 
D
of fear for the future
   G                 A            
We lean into the sky, we're 
           D
looking for that answer
G             A                 
You and I, we both swing in and out 
D
of fear for the future
   G                 A            
We lean into the sky, we're 
          D
looking for the answers
             G             A      
I can see a romance in the 
         D
reaching, and a tenderness in 
believing
   G                 A            
We lean into the sky, we're 
          D
looking for the answers

[End]
    B7
But Mama, you didn't inspire a 
heavenly desire
        G               A    
Just an urge to hold my life a 
         D
little tighter
        G               A    
Just an urge to hold my life a 
         D
little tighter
        G               A    
Just an urge to hold my life a 
         D
little tighter
