Received these chords from Michael, lead singer/guitarist of the band, so you can know
are right. The strum pattern is pretty interesting, but if you listen to the song it's
to pick-up. Good luck and God Bless.
(A list of chord fingerings are at the bottom)
INTRO: G Bm Em
FIRST VERSE:
G Bm
I tried and tried,
Em C G
A thousand times I tried to get to you,
Bm F C
But I could never move...
G Bm
I had to lie,
Em C G
To fall behind and blame it all on you,
Bm F C
Cause' I still hate to lose...
PRE CHORUS: C Em D
CHORUS:
G D
Towers fall and kingdoms crumble,
Am C
The mountains bow and the earth will tremble,
Em D C
At the sound of Your name, at the sound of Your name.
G D
Strong man falls to him who humbles,
Am C
Plans he made, were bound to stumble,
Em D C
Only You remain, only You remain.

2ND VERSE (same chord pattern as first verse):
I cried and cried,
A thousand tears I cried because of You,
I lost my one excuse...
And I had to die,
Along with everything inside of me removed,
But now I live with you...
PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
F Am G C
Some men can reach the sky,
Dm C G
If he built his own device,
F Am G C
Still he'd fall away from you.
(He's underneath your eyes)
Dm C G
He's underneath your eyes,
As he plans his own demise,
Dm C G
What's dear to him is not to you.
(Oh, oh, oh Part)
G Em
His kingdom fell and his heart was trouble,
C
I feel the same, I feel the same.
(this part goes like the chorus)
Strong man falls to him who humbles,
He demands a man who won't stumble
And that's why He came, and that's why He came.
CHORUS
Only You remain, only You remain.
