One Chords & Lyrics by Chris Sligh

guitar chords lyrics
I was looking for chords for this song everywhere ('cause well,let's face it, it's an
amazing song)and couldn't find any straight up chords. But I did find piano music, so I
just used my wicked skills and decoded the crazy piano music!
But I don't have the music for the bridge. So if you figure them out, please tell me.
That would be quite wonderful!
Key:C
Pre-Intro: C G F x2 (Strum each once)
Intro: C G Am F C
Verse 1:
(C) G
Holding onto our beliefs
Am
Like a child holds to its father
F
It's like we're trying so hard to breathe
C
With our heads underneath the water
G
Keep trying to find the balance
Am
Of our love and our convictions
F
'Cause we know that life in You

Moves far beyond religion
Pre-Chorus:
G Am
We know, we know, we know, we know
F
That nothing else even matters
C
but love

Whoa, we keep trying to find a way
Am
Whoa, to come together

Whoa, Lord, take these fears away
Whoa
C G
And make us one, one, one, whoa

Lord, make us one, one, one, Lord, make us one

Verse 2:
(C) G
We are the face of Christ
Am
In a world of shadows
F
Is it God's love we're fighting for
C
Or our denomination's ego?
G
We got to let go of pride
Am
Embrace the idea of difference
F
Make unity our calling
C
And move within forgiveness
[Pre-Chorus]
[CHORUS]
Bridge:
Imagine what could be, imagine what could change
If love was all that really mattered
Would the light of Christ finally shine through
Me and you?
C G
Holding onto our beliefs
Am
Like a child holds to its father
F
It's like we're trying so hard to breathe
C
With our heads underneath the water
[CHORUS]

And make us one, one, one, whoa
Am F
Lord, make us one, one, one, Lord, make us one, oh [repeat x4]
