[Verse 1]
A Bm
We started out strong
But somewhere along
G Bm
We lost our way
A D
Done things in Your name
I'm so ashamed
G D
I don't have the words to say
A Bm
We've killed and destroyed
Stolen and blamed
G Bm
All in Your name
A D
You told us to give
Told us to love
G D
But we chose to take
A Bm
You laid down Your life
Put power aside
G Bm
Showed us the Way and the Truth
A D
We roll into church
Open the Word
G D
And forget that we're called to include
[Pre-Chorus]
A Bm
Now, it's long overdue
But I can't dilute
G Bm
What we seem to havе put on the shelf
A D
I can't speak for us all
But I gotta bеlieve
G D
I'm speakin' for more than myself
When I say
[Chorus]
A Bm G Bm
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
A Bm G
I'm sorry, so sorry
A Bm G Bm
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
A Bm G
I'm sorry, so sorry
[Verse 2]
A Bm
We say that we're one
But we're broken up
G Bm
By anything that can divide
A D
Our color o' skin
The clothes we're in
G D
That valley's deep and wide
A Bm
We overlook the broken
The homeless
G Bm
And discard the poor
A D
While we celebrate the rich and the beautiful
G D
With a wide-open door
A Bm
I'm sorry we're nothing like You
G Bm
You chose to bear a cross
A D
We choose to give You parts of us
G D
And rarely the parts that cost
[Pre-Chorus]
A Bm
Now, it's long overdue
But I can't dilute
G Bm
What we seem to havе put on the shelf
A D
I can't speak for us all
But I gotta bеlieve
G D
I'm speakin' for more than myself
When I say
[Chorus]
A Bm G Bm
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
A Bm G
I'm sorry, so sorry
A Bm G Bm
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
A Bm G
I'm sorry, so sorry
[Bridge]
A Bm
Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up, Lord
D G
Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up
A Bm
Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up, Lord
G
Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up
[Chorus]
A Bm G Bm
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
A Bm G
I'm sorry, so sorry
A Bm G Bm
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
A Bm G
I'm sorry, so sorry
[Bridge]
A Bm G Bm
Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up
A D G
Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up, Lord
A Bm G Bm
Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up
A D G
Wake us up, wake us up, wake us up, Lord
[Outro]
