Please Be My Strength Chords
There is a marked lack of tabs (or chords) for this song online, so I decided to
try my hand at a transcription. I used this for a guitar class at my University.
This is the picking pattern I use, the beats appearing on the top two rows and the
fingerings on the bottom two:
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1
/ .(/). / .(/). /
4 23 4 4 23 4 4
1 1 1 1 1
In the actual recording, the pattern changes from verse to chorus, but I haven't
yet figured it out. The above transcription is truly only half of the verse
fingering, but I play it throughout and it sounds good enough, if not entirely
authentic. Gungor himself is much more melodic in his playing; but this chord
sheet should fit the bill until a more talented guitarist comes along and improves
it. Happy Playing!
Please Be My Strength
Gungor
Verse 1
Bm F#m F# G
I've tried to stand my ground, I've tried to understand
G D A Bm /
But I can't seem to find my faith again
Bm F#m F# G
Like water on the sand, or grasping at the wind
G D A /
I keep on falling short, so

And all would know that You
