Key:
D A G
D When I was a boy each week on Sunday
A We would go to church and pay attention to
G The priest, he would read the
D Holy word, and consecrate the holy bread
A And everyone would kneel and bow
G Today the only difference is
D Everything is holy now
Bm A Everything, everything
G Everything is holy now
D A G
D When I was in Sunday school
A We would learn about the time
G Moses split the sea in two
D Jesus made the water wine
D And I remember feeling sad
A That miracles don't happen still
G But now I can't keep track
D Cause everything's a miracle
Bm A Everything, everything
Continues after the ad
G D Everything's a miracle
A G Wine from water is not so small
Em But an even better magic trick
D Is that anything is here at all
A G So the challenging thing becomes
Em Not to look for miracles
A But finding where there isn't one
D When holy water was rare at best
A It barely wet my fingertips
G But now I have to hold my breath
D Like I'm swimming in a sea of it
D It used to be a world half there
A Heaven's second rate hand me down
G But I'm walk in' with a reverent air
D Cause everything is holy now
Bm A Everything, everything
G D Everything is holy now
A G Read a questioning child's face
Em And say it's not a testament
D That'd be very hard to say
A G See another new morning come
Em And say it's not a sacrament
A I tell you that it can't be done
D This morning, outside I stood
A And saw a little red winged bird
G Shining like a burning bush
D Singing like a scripture verse
D It made me want to bow my head
A I remember when church let out
G How things have changed since then
D Everything is holy now
D It used to be a world half there
A Heaven's second rate hand me down
G But I'm walkin' with a reverent air
D Cause everything is holy now
Bm A Everything, everything
G Everything is holy now
