Key: EmEm | Capo: 0fr |  Left-Handed 

    


(Verse 1) 
Em                                    
I used to know how to walk on water 
Am                         
I used to be so unafraid 
Bm                                
I could save the weakest tyrant 
Em 
And I could knight the proudest slave 
Em 
I could give riches to beggars 
Am 
And give love to the one who hates 
Bm 
I could tempt a heart so frozen 
Em 
And I could torture the strength of fate 
(Verse 2) 
Em 
I used to know how to walk on water 
Am 
The king of kings they knew me well 
Bm 
I could give sight to blind men 
Em 
And make a mute man sing in hell 
Em 
But now I watch with awe and wonder 
Am 
Doubt has now befallen me 
Bm 
I ask The Lord to show me mercy 
Em 
And to give me sympathy 
G                D 
Forgive me now my useless thunder 
Am               G 
When I was such a dynamo 
             D 
I am here and I am humble  
Am                   G 
For I know not which way to go 
(Verse 3) 
Em 
I used to know how to walk on water 
Am 
I could give the dead hot life 
Bm 
I could murder the joy of Satan 
Em 
And make his mistress be my wife 
Em 
I will be the dream of cowards  
Am 
And they will never resemble me  
Bm 
I could see them doubt me under 
Em 
As I set each one free 
Em 
Now I just sit and wonder what 
Am 
illness has befallen me  
Bm 
This sick of mine make me surrender to  
Em 
this world of vacancy 
G                D 
Forgive me now my useless thunder 
Am               G 
When I was such a dynamo 
              D 
I am here and I am humble 
Am                   G  
For I know not which way to go 
(Verse 4) 
Em 
I used to know how to walk on water 
Am 
Now I sink in the dirt 
Bm 
No kind of holy laughter  
Em 
Seems to reach beyond the hurt 
Em 
I used to know how to walk on water 
Am 
I used to be at peace with love 
Bm 
All it's strength and all it's power  
Em 
Would lift me up so high above 
Em 
Burning star of holy wonder 
Am 
Women would rush to be with me 
Bm                                   
But now I'm lost inside the thunder of  
Em 
pain which holds insanity 
G                 D 
Forgive me now my useless thunder 
Am                G 
When I was such a dynamo 
             D 
I am here and I am humble 
Am                   G 
For I know not which way to go 
G                 D 
Forgive me now my useless thunder 
Am                G 
When I was such a dynamo 
             D 
I am here and I am humble 
Am                   G  
For I know not which way to go
