I Am Living in a Land of Death
by Citizens

Verse 1:
    F                   Am
I'm living in a land of death
    C                 Fmaj7
the trees are burning grey
          F                    Am
there's a smoldering smoke overhead
        G                          
and the night looks the same as the day

it seems a miracle that I can stand
when everyone i've known
drifts up in the air with the ash
every time that the wind starts to blow

Prechorus:
            F           Am              C
but i feel alive with a life that's not mine
              F              Am             C
your law is a stream in this wasteland - my lifeline

Chorus:
        F                  C
so much more than precious gold
         F           Am
are your promises my lord
        F               C
by them is your servant warned
                 G
in keeping them great reward

Verse 3:
your direction is marked in light
your law secures my wounds
i will meditate day and night
and in season you'll harvest your fruit

Verse 4:
though a poison should threaten to kill
i know my Savior reigns
and when the breezes of death leave a chill
I've got Jesus' blood in my veins

Prechorus 2:
So i feel alive with a life that's not mine
and i'm believing that that is your intended design

Chorus
so much more than precious gold
are your promises my lord
by them is your servant warned
in keeping them great reward

Interlude

Bridge:
                F
The kingdoms of man have all decayed
             Dm
the ruins of progress turn to waste
            C
the gods of greed lay in their graves
            G
darkness is everywhere
but there's a path in the dark that has emerged
i can see a great light beyond this curse
a brilliant blaze that is your word
a beacon of hope that burns

Outro:
               F
and I focus my captivated gaze
               Dm
on the radiant light from Jesus' face
             C
the water of life is all i crave
          E7
only your word remains

So much more than precious gold
is the beauty I behold
give me the glorious reward
of knowing you my king, my lord
