[Verse 1]
[Em]
She caught the melting sky
[Em] [C]
It burned but still the winter passes by and by
[Em]
To the other side
[Em]
A slow parade of wind
[Em] [C]
That blows through trees that wilted with the season's children
[Chorus 1]
[D] [C] [Em]
Are we saved by the words of bastard saints?
[D] [C]
Do we live in fear or faith?
[C] [D] [Em]
Tell me now who's behind the rain
[Verse 2]
[Em]
A maze of tangled grace
[Em] [C]
The symptoms of "for real" are crumbling from embrace
[Em]
But still we chase...
[Em]
The shadows of belief
[Em] [C]
And new religion clouds our visions of the roots
[Em]
Of our souls
[Chorus 2]
[D] [C] [Em]
Are we a-shamed of our own fate
[D] [C]
Or play the fool for our own sake?
[C] [D] [Em]
Tell me who's behind the rain
[Bridge]
[Em]
What do we need?
[G] [Em]
Where do we go?
[Em] [G] [D]
Where do we go when we don't know?
[Em] [G] [C]
Why should we doubt the virgin white of fallen snow
[Em] [D] [Em]
When faith's our shelter from the cold?
[Solo]
[Em] [G] [Em] [G] [D] [Em] [G] [C] [Em] [D] [Em]
[Bridge Repeat]
[Em]
What do we need?
[G] [Em]
Where do we go?
[Em] [G] [D]
Where do we go when we don't know?
[Em] [G] [C]
Why should we doubt the virgin white of fallen snow
[Em] [D] [Em]
When faith's our shelter from the cold?
[Outro]
[C] [D] [Em]
Quicksand Jesus I'm so far away without you
[C] [D] [Em]
Quicksand Jesus I’m so far awaaaaay-ay-ay-ay
[C] [D]
Quicksand Jesus I need you
[C] [D]
Quicksand Jesus I believe you
[C] [Em] [D] [Em]
Quicksand... I'm so far awaaaaaaaaaaay
