CAPO V
[Intro]
Am G F Am
[Verse 1]
Am
Above the plains of Omaha
G C E
I think of all the sufferin' I saw
F C
The soakin' of the pavement
G F
Sprawled upon a land without a law
G Am Em F
Everythin' I loved, everythin' I found what I hoped for
C
Frightened and surrounded
G F
Who else is there to turn to anymore?
[Chorus]
F C
Oh I held out my heart
F C
Oh I held out my heart
F Am G F
Held out my heart
C G
Oh oh oh
[Verse 2]
Am
There was a time I spoke the truth
G C E
But my younger years were wasted on my youth
F C
Somewhere I awakened
G F
With a crack to a poundin' on the roof
G
Sure I heard the sound
Am Em F
As evidence, or better yet as proof
C G
I was naked as the day I was born
F
'Neath the fullness of the moon
[Chorus]
F C
Oh I held out my heart
F C
Oh I held out my heart
F Am G F
Held out my heart
C G
Oh oh oh
[Bridge]
Em F Am G
Far away I hear singin'
Em F Am Em
Far away a song
[Solo]
F Am G F
Am Am G F
F Am Em F
Am
[Verse 3]
Am
The blinding light of morning came
G C E
Flooding through the window like a friend
F C
Like a wild revelation
G F
Like a shining invitation to attend
G
Spoken as a prayer
Am Em F
Unbroken by despair I make amends
F C
The love inside our hearts
G F
Is the only kind of savior we've been sent
[Chorus]
F C
Oh I held out my heart
F C
Oh I held out my heart
F Am G F
Held out my heart
C G Am G Am
Oh oh oh
