Intro:
Em7DCadd9G (x2)
Em7D
I would take no for an answer,
Cadd9G
Just to know I heard you speak,
Em7D
And I'm wondering why I've never,
Cadd9GD
Seen the signs they claim they see,
Em7DA lotta special revelations,
Cadd9G
Meant for everybody but me,
Em7D
Maybe I don't truly know you,
Cadd9GD
or maybe I just simply believe...
Chorus:
D
Cause I can sniff, I can see, and I can
Cadd9G
count up pretty high; but these faculties
Cadd9
aren't getting me any closer to the sky,
D
but my heart of faith keeps poundin' so
Cadd9G
I know I'm doin' fine but sometimes findin
Cadd9D
you is just like tryin to smell the color nine.
Cadd9DCadd9
Smell the color nine...
Em7D
Now I've never felt the presence,
Cadd9G
But I know you're always near,
Em7D
And I've never heard the calling,
Cadd9GD
But somehow you've led me right here,
Em7D
So I'm not lookin' for burnin' bushes,
Cadd9G
Or some divine graffiti to appear,
Em7D
I'm just beggin you for your wisdom,
Cadd9GD
And I believe you're puttin' some here...
Chorus:

Chorus 2:
D
Cause I can sniff, I can see, and I can
Cadd9G
count up pretty high; but these faculties
Cadd9
aren't getting me any closer to the sky,
D
but my heart of faith keeps poundin' so
Cadd9G
I know I'm doin' fine but sometimes findin
Cadd9
you is just like tryin to, sometimes
GCadd9
findin you is just like tryin to
G
sometimes findin you is just
Cadd9D
like tryin to smell the color nine.
Cadd9DCadd9
Smell the color nine
D
Nine's not a color...
Cadd9GD
and if even if it were you can't smell a color,no
Cadd9GD
that's my point exactly.
