I'm Coming To The Cross Again (When You Touch Me) chords and lyrics - STUART TOWNEND

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Am]I'm coming to the cross again
[F]The place where all the sin
and shame of [C]what I do
Is squarely [G]placed on you
[Am]The pressure's more
than I can take
[C]I've [F]tried to walk in my own strength
[C]I lay it down before your [G]thorny crown
[Am]I've tried so hard to be someone
[F]That [Csus4]you'd be proud to [F]call your son
To [C]earn the love I know [G]I don't deserve
[Am]Yet when I think I'm standing tall
[C]The greater height, [F]the bigger fall
[C]Now all I see is my [G]futility
But when [F]you touch me
[C]I feel the[G] burden slipping down again
[Am]And when you t[F]ouch me[C]
Can't stop [G]the tears
from falling down like [Am]rain
I feel the shame of shallowness
[F]The kind of measured holiness
Yes, [Csus4]that seems to [C]fit,
the life [G]I want to live
[Am]How much of this is wooden straw?
[F]I want to work for something
more [C]than piety, respectab[G]ility
But when you [F]touch [C]me
I feel [G]the burden slipping down again
[Am]And when you t[F]ouch me,[C]
can't stop [G]the tears from falling
down like [Am]rain[F][C][G][Am]
na -na -na -na -n[F]a na -na -na -na -na -na [C]-na -na
-na -na -na [G]-n a -na -na -na -na -na -and
[F]when you touch [C]me
I feel [G]the burden slipping down again
[Am]and when you t[F]ouch me[C]
Can't stop [G]the tears from falling
down like [Am]rain
When the words cut like a knife
[F]And harsh rejection haunts my life
I tell [C]my self
This was [G]the pain you felt
[Am]You walked this road a thousand times
[F]The victim of the cruelest crimes
[C]and left for dead by every [G]friend you had
[Am]And when the accusations came
[F]and you refused to play their game
[C]no words of hate to set [G]the record straight
[Am]And when they taunted at the cross
[F]if you are God then save yourself
you [C]set your face to free [G]this fallen race
So when you [F]touch [C]me,
I feel [G]the burden slipping down again
[Am]And when you t[F]ouch me,[C]
can't stop [G]the tears from
falling down like rain
[Am]Why don't [F]you touch me
[C]I feel t[G]he burden slipping
down [Am]again
Why don't [F]you touch [C]me
Can't stop [G]the tears from
falling down like break
[Am]
