Capo 3
200233
Intro:
Verse 1:
Am I foolish to ask, laying motionless and black,
Father, if you have a reason for lack of better words
For the pain and suf-fer-ing
I shake my fist and scream
Chorus:
Where were you, in the night, when the roof came down?
Where were you, holding light, when the fire went out?
Where were you, El Shaddai, El Shaddai, El Shaddai?
Where were you, where were you, where were you, we cry
Verse 2:
When the gunman in the town, twenty babies in the ground
Were you listening, did you hear the same sounds?
Were you around?
For the pain and suf-fer-ing
I gnash my teeth and scream
[Chorus]
Instrumental:
(x4)
Bridge:
I ve served you whole, and I ve loved you so
I ve placed my hope, in your streets of gold
My anguish holds what my harvest soothes [?]
My questions flow from my bitter soul
Chorus 2:
Where were you, in the night, when the roof came down?
Where were you, holding light, when the fire went out?
Where were you, El Shaddai, El Shaddai, El Shaddai?
You answer me, you answer,
Where were you, little child, when the world was made?
Who made you, reconciled, when the blood was paid?
It was I, El Shaddai, El Shaddai, El Shaddai
It was I, El Shaddai, El Shaddai, you cry
