CAPO 1

VERSE 1
Em                         C
If I could tell the world just one thing
         G                 D
It would be that we're all OK
Em                        C     
And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful
     G                       D
And useless in times like these
Em                 C
I won't be made useless
Em                     C
I won't be idle with despair
 Em                     C
I will gather myself around my faith
      G                           D
For light does the darkness most fear

CHORUS
G    D        Am
My hands are small, I know 
      G           D          C
But they're not yours, they are my own
      G           D         Am
But they're not yours, they are my own 
   G      D      Em
And I am never broken

VERSE 2
      Em                           C
Poverty stole your golden shoes
  G                                        D
But it didn't steal your laughter
 Em                                     C
And heartache came to visit me
             G                               D
But I knew it wasn't ever after
  Em              C
We'll fight, not out of spite
             G                                 D
For someone must stand up for what's right
               Em                                     C
'Cause where there's a man who has no voice
     G                             D
There ours shall go singing 

CHORUS
  G      D             Am
My hands are small I know
           G                  D               C
But they're not yours, they are my own
           G                 D               Am
But they're not yours, they are my own
       G          D       Em
And I am never broken

BRIDGE
G         D    Em                     C
In the end only kindness matters
G         D    Em                     C
In the end only kindness matters
Em                     C                    G               D
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
Em                    C                     G              D
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
Em                    C                    G               D
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

CHORUS
  G     D              Am
My hands are small I know
           G                  D               C
But they're not yours, they are my own
          G                   D              Am
But they're not yours, they are my own
       G          D        Em
And I am never broken
G       D              Am
My hands are small I know
           G                  D              C
But they're not yours, they are my own
          G                  D               Am
But they're not yours, they are my own
       G         D        Em
And I am never broken
 G              D        Em
We are never broken

OUTRO
We are God's eyes               For this section, keeping with the rythm,
God's hands                     just keep repeating the
transition from:
God's mind
We are God's eyes                       Em  ---   C
God's hands
God's heart                     and fade out.
We are God's eyes
God's hands
God's eyes
We are God's hands
We are God's hands
