Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Bm][Bdim][G]
[C][Bm][Bdim][Em]
[A]
There's [D]joy in the Lord

[Verse 1]
That every sinner can afford
Unless you're livin' as a [Bm]Christian

[Verse 2]
You don't [C]know the joy
you're missing
And you'll [Bm]wonder
How you could ever be [D]bored
[A]It's true as [D]can be

[Verse 3]
[Bm]
Because it's happenin' to me
I'm gonna [D]tell my story to you

[Verse 4]
'Cause I [C]know that when
I'm through
You're surely bound to see it
The way that I [D]see
'Cause [C]sometimes

[Verse 5]
[Bb]when I kneel [A]to pray
[Em]And let [D]the spir[C]it have
his [B]way[Bm]
[D]Somethin' takes

[Verse 6]
[A]over
[D]Somethin' takes [Bm]over my [Em]soul
And [Bm]soon I get to reelin'
'Cause of [C]all the joy [Bm]I'm feelin'
Till I'm very nearly out of con[Em]trol
[D]Just like the rollin'

[Verse 7]
[A]Of the wat[D]ers of the mighty sea[Bb]
When I'm [D]connected to the spirit
Heavenly Father's sure to [C]hear it
'Cause somethin' takes
[D]over me
[Bdim]

[Verse 8]
[Em][A]
It's [D]hard to contain
[Bm]A joy that words just can't explain
Unless they know the reason for it
All your [Em]friends will just ig[C]nore it
For it [Bm]seems you're going a little in[Em]sane
[A]But

[Verse 9]
[D]don't you for[Bm]get
[D]He isn't finished [Bm]with you yet
We have His [D]spirit now to [Bm]teach us
For He [C]said He'd always
keep us all
And that's a promise on
[D]which you can bet

[Verse 10]
For [C]He's [Bb]renewing your [A]mind
And [D]when you [F#dim]praise Him
[C]you [B]will find[Em]

[Verse 11]
[D]Somethin' takes [G]over
[D]Somethin' takes over my [A]soul
[D]And soon you get to [Bm]reelin'
'Cause of [C]all the joy your feelin'
Till [Bm]you're very nearly out [G]of control

[Verse 12]
[D]Just lik[Bm]e the rollin'
[Asus4]Of the waters of[D]
the mightly [Bb]sea
When you're [D]connected
to the spirit
Heavenly [G]father's sure to [C]hear it
'Cause [D]somethin' takes over me

[Verse 13]
I get to [Bb]dan c[C]in'
When the spirit starts movin' my [F]feet
I can't help [Fm]singin' when
[Bb]we're swingin'
With [Eb]the angels to a heavenly beat
[Gm](Well, well)

[Verse 14]
And then the [F#]neighbors
[Bb]Pull theirs [A]shutters down
And start [D]to ring me [C]on the line

[Verse 15]
I say, "I'll beg [C]your pardon, please
[E]If I'm dis[B]turbin' the peace
But then the [Bb]fault's not really mine"
It's just [Eb]that

[Verse 16]
[D]Somethin' [Bm]takes [Em]over[A]
[D]Somethin' [Bm]takes over my [Em]soul
And [Bm]soon I get to reelin'
'Cause [C#dim]of all the joy I'm fe[F#]elin'
Till I'm [Bm]very nearly [Em]out of cont[Asus4]rol
[A]

[Verse 17]
[D]Just like [Bm]the rollin'
[A]Of the [D]wa ters of the [Bb]mighty sea
When I'm connected to [Bm]the spirit
Heavenly [D]Father's sure to [C]hear it
'Cause [Bb]somethin' takes over me
[D]Well, it was just

[Verse 18]
the other [Bb]morning
[D]While I was pra[A]yin',
I was [D]praisin' the Lord
[Bm]Thankin' Him [D]for everything
that He's [Bm]done
And all that He means to me
I got to [Asus4]thinkin' really [D]deep And it

[Verse 19]
occurred to me
[Bm]That all I[Em] really wante[A]d
was more of [Bb]Him
Just to [A]be closer, [B]no [Bm]Sir[C]
I couldn't sit there any[D]more
You know I [Bb]had to get up On

[Verse 20]
the roof of the house
[C]Raisin' my hands and shoutin'
"Lord, take me [Fm]higher,
[Bb]higher, [G]hgher"

[Verse 21]
I guess the neighbors [G]Must
have misunder[C]stood my inten[E]tions
[A]You could say I got car[C]ried
away
'Cause they thought
[F#]I was shoutin' 'Fire'
Like the [B]house was burning down

[Verse 22]
And I was [Bm]about to [Bb]be D.O.A.
[A](What a [D]laugh)
They called the [Bm]hook and [Em]ladder truck
A po[D]liceman and [Bm]the ambulance [Em]too

[Verse 23]
An[Bm]d everybody's running
around on the [F#]lawn
But nobody [Em]knows what to [D]do[A]
[D]And all this time I'm standin' t[A]here
On the roof of the [D]house
With my [Bb]hands in the air

[Verse 24]
Havin' [Bm]a wonderful [B]time with the Lord
[Eb](I told you Chri[Bb]stians
rarely [Bm]get bored)
But be[D]fore too long they
figured out
There's no [Bm]spark or [D]flame
To be [Bm]worried about

[Verse 25]
And then [Bm]they all got [D]pretty [G]steamed[A]
[Em]And [A]as they'[Bm]re about
to [D]do their worst to me
I saw a [Bm]golden opportunity
And from my high and lofty per[C]ch

[Verse 26]
I preached a [G]sermon like
it was [D]church
And when I [C]was finished they for[Bb]gave me
For the [A]crazy way that I raved
Now I [D]know that all things
[C]work for good
'Cause [B]they all ended

[Verse 27]
up gettin' saved
[C#m]Somethin' takes [F#m]over
[C#m]Somethin' takes [F#m]over my soul
And [C#m]soon I get to reelin'
'Cause [A]of all the joy I'm feelin'
Till I'm [C#m]very nearly out of cont[B]rol

[Verse 28]
[E]Just like [C#m]the ro[F#m]llin'
[B]Of the wat[E]ers of the mig[C]hty sea
When I'm connected to the [C#m]spir it
Heavenly [A]Father's sure to hear it
'Cause [C#m]somethin' takes over [C#m]me

[Verse 29]
[F#m]Someth[A]in' takes [F#m]over
[E]me
