Sinking Lyrics

This song can be found on Jars of Clay's 1st album. It's the second
song on the CD. I haven't seen anyone play this, including Jars of
Clay, but I think i'm pretty accurate with the chords, although not
entirely correct. They are written so that it will be VERY easy for
the guitarist to play...
INTRO:
1ST VERSE:
It's not my problem anymore
You see it never really was
So you can stop ?caring? as you call it
and I'll be fine right here
BRIDGE:
You see that I can play a pretty convincing role
So I don't need you, I don't think I need you
CHORUS:
But you see through my forever lies
And you are not believing
And I see in your forever eyes
That you are forever healing
SECOND VERSE:
You can't hear what I'm not saying
And I can hold out long enough
Treading water I keep from sinking
I'm not one for reaching
You see that I can play a pretty convincing role
So I don't need you, I don't think I need you
Deny myself, deny my heart
Deny your hand, deny your help
And you offer me eternity
But why should I buy that?
GUITAR SOLO: (vocals: ?WHOA.......?)
E A Am (2x before vocals come in)
E A Am (2x with vocals)
then the rest just pretty much goes from the bridge to the chorus...
CHORDS (I prefer to play them this way):
IF ANYONE IS IN THE VIRGINIA AREA WHO LOVES TO PLAY JARS OF CLAY,

Have a blessed day, and remember ?GOD LOVES YOU?
