Casting Crowns – East To West Acoustic chords
Chords:
This version goes with the Acoustic version of East to West from Casting Crowns Acoustic Session Vol 1. It's different enough to need a separate Tab. Intro: (Em C G) x2 Verse 1:C D Em / Here I am, Lord and I'm drowningG C In Your sea of forgetfulnessD EmThe chains of yesterday surround meG C I yearn for peace and restD EmI don't want to end up where You found meG C D CAnd it echoes in my mind, keeps me awake tonightVerse 2:C D Em / I know You've cast my sin as far asG CAs the east is from the westD EmAnd I stand before You nowG CAs though I've never sinnedD Em G/BBut today I feel like I'm just one mistake awayC DFrom You leaving me this wayC {tacit}Jesus can You show me just howChorus:Em G DFar the east is from the westAm'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've beenCRising up in me againEm G DIn the arms of Your mercy I find restAm Em7 CYou know just how far the east is from the westDFrom one scarred hand to the otherInstrumental: Em / / / D / / / Em / / / D / / / Verse 3:C D Em / I start the day, the war beginsG CEndless reminding of my sinD EmTime and time again Your truth is drowned outG CBy the storm I'm inD Em G/BToday I feel like I'm just one mistake awayC DFrom You leaving me this wayCJesus can You show me just howChorus:Em G DFar the east is from the westAm'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've beenCRising up in me againEm G DIn the arms of Your mercy I find restAm Em7 CYou know just how far the east is from the westGFrom one scarred hand to the otherBridge:G DI know You've washed me whiteEmTurn my darkness into lightCI need Your peace to get me throughC GTo get me through this nightBmI can't live by what I feelEmAbout the truth Your work revealsCAnd I'm not holding on to YouEm / / / D But You're holding on to meEm / / / DYou're holding on to meChorus{tacit} G DJesus, You know just how far the east is from the westAmI don't have to see the man I've beenC Come rising up in me againG DIn the arms of Your mercy I find restAm Em7 CYou know just how far the east is from the westFrom one scarred hand to the other Ending:Em D Em DJust how far, the east is from the west, just how far(From one scarred hand to the other) You know just how far, the east is from the west, just how far) From one scarred hand to the other ... ----------------- I started with the version from ugudrum (Thanks Dude!) but I put the verses and chorus in order for the acoustic version. I liked how an Em7 sounded with C on "from the west." Also, I think the D/F# could be played as just D and the C/E as just C.
