[Verse 1]

      C             G                  C          G
Well, your spirit is strong, but I'm a nervous wreck
      C             G             D             D
There's something about you so fragile and delicate
           C           G              C              G
If I could wrap up your innocence, I'd have it done quick
    Em                               D       C  G  C  G
And keep it from the wolves of this present darkness


[Verse 2]

           C         G         C            G
Trade your crown of thorns for a crown of joy
        C           G             D            D
I was wearing my weariness like a badge of glory
       C           G              C           G
You're tradin' your secrets after nothing remains
        Em                    D           C G C G
I was checkin' my pockets and countin' my change


[Chorus]

C               D          G
    Now the word's in my ears
C          Em
    The wind's up above
C          D          G
    I will shed my skin
        Em
    When I jump right in
             D        C G C G
    To this river of love


[Verse 3]

       C             G               C             G
You get moved by the Spirit, but I'm so out of touch
      C              G              D             D
You're down on your knees, but I'm down on my luck
      C              G             C            G
You're doing your labors in the fields of the Lord
      Em                            D             C G C G
I'm workin' hard at nothin' in this cheap room and board


[Chorus]

C               D          G
    Now the word's in my ears
C          Em
    The wind's up above
C          D          G
    I will shed my skin
        Em
    When I jump right in
             D        C G C G
    To this river of love


[Verse 4]

        C            G              C           G
Well, your spirit is willing, but my flesh is weak
        C            G                 D             D
Used to make my pronouncements, now it's harder to speak
       C        G          C             G
And dig up a word that is good for the soul
       Em                              D          C G C G
'Cause down in these mines, there's a lot of fool's gold


[Chorus]

C               D           G
        now the words in my ears
C               Em
        and the wind up above
C              D       G         Em
        i will shed my skin as i jump right in
                D        G
        to this river of love
C              D       G         Em
        i will shed my skin as i jump right in
                D        G
        to this river of love
C              D       G         Em
        i will shed my skin as i jump right in
                D        C G C G C G D G
        to this river of love
