Jars of Clay - He (Acoustic)
tabbed by Tangalicious

Sounds great with two acoustics, or one that alternates between both lead and
rhythm. The strumming may be hard to follow, I recommend playing with the song
to get the right beat. There are quite a bit of slight fills by the lead, but
they're all variations of the chords played by the rhythm.

Guitar 2:
Verse:
G/A G Gmaj7 G
Don’t try to reach me
Cadd9 C2 Cadd9 Cadd9*
I’m already dead
G/A G Gmaj7 G
The pain when it grips me,
Cadd9 C2 Cadd9 Cadd9*
For things that I’ve done
G Cadd9
Well I try to make you proud, but for crying out loud
G Cadd9
Just give me a chance to hide away
G Cadd9
Exhaustion takes over,
G Cadd9 D Am G C D
Will this someday be over?
Chorus:
G Cadd9 D Cadd9
Fearful tears are running down
G Cadd9 D Cadd9
The pain you've laid don't speak a sound
G Cadd9 D Cadd9
Don't take my heart away from me
G Cadd9 D
And they think I fell down ... again
[back to intro, then verse 2, then chorus]
Bridge:
G
A teardrop falls from up in the heavens
Cadd9
Drowning the sorrow of angels on high
G
For the least of the helpless, the hopeless, the loveless
Cadd9
My Jesus, His children, He holds in His eyes
Outro:
G
He loves you, He sees you
Cadd9
He knows you, protects you.. (repeated)
