[Intro 1]
[D][Bm][D][Bm][G][D][Bm]

[Verse 1]
[D]It's
enough to drive a man crazy
Or break a man's [A]faith
[G]It's enough to make him [Bm]wonder
If he's ever been [D]sane
When he's bleed[G]ing for comfort
From [D]thy staff and [G]thy [Bm]rod
And the heavens' only [A]answer
Is the silence of God
[D][Bm]

[Verse 2]
[D]
And it'll shake a man's timbers
When he loses his heart
[A]When he has to remember[Bm]
What broke [D]him apart
And this yoke [G]may be easy
But this [D]burden [Bm]is not
When the crying fields are frozen
[A]By the si [D]lence of God
[F#m]And if a

[Verse 3]
[Bm]man has got to listen
[A]To [G]the voices of [D]the mob
Who are [Bm]reeling [A]in the throes
Of all the [G]happiness they've [D]got
When they [Bm]tell you all
their troubles
[A]Have been [G]nailed up to that [D]cross
[Em]What about the [D]times when even
[G]followers get lost?
Cause we all get lost [D]sometimes

[Verse 4]
There's a statue of [D]Jesus
On a monastery knoll
In the hills of Kentuck[G]y
All quiet [A]and cold
He's kneeling in [D]the garden
As silent as a stone
All his friends are sleep[G]ing
And He's weeping all [A]alone
And the [D]man of all sor[G]rows
He never forgot
[Bm]What sorrow is carri[A]ed
By the hearts that he [D]bought
So when the questions dis[G]solve
Into the [A]silence of [Bm]God
The aching [G]may re[A]main
But the [G]breaking does [D]not

[Verse 5]
The aching may re[G]main
But the breaking does [D]not
In the holy, [G]lonesome [Em]echo
Of the [D]si lence of God
