Hi, this is my first time doing chords but this is how I play the song
Ten Thousand by the incredible worshipper John Mark McMillan.
The changes can be a little quick.
Also (based on the bass notes I can hear in the album version) at the line
"Where the blood of a husband silences wars" the SECOND E is different
to a regular E major chord; which I play like this:
e ---0---
B ---0---
G ---9---
D ---9---
A ---7---
E ---0---
So at that line, you go from E to C#m and then slide up to the second type of E.
Or at least I do. Your choice :)
All the best. Enjoy the chords, God Bless.
Verse 1
ETen thousand glimmering like Bcoals in our Echest
C#mBall bearings Bdrawn to the Emagnetic Abreath
Of ten Ethousand weeping withB wings on their Etears
Amidst C#mten thousand Bvoices for Eten thousand Ayears
For tEen thousand graves yawning Bunlocked and unElatched
Now C#mten thousand Bholes with Erocks on their bAacks
Ten tEhousand tombs gaping wide sBinging the Epraise
Of C#mten thousand Bbodies unElaced and unAlaid
Pre - Chorus
As the Bten thousand highways C#munfold their dAoors
For the Bten thousand standing on C#mNineveh's sAhores
Where the Eblood of a husband sAilences Ewars
For the gAirl who Brises to Emeet him
EAnd she sings
Chorus
AWorld, I have overcome you
EWorld, I have overcome you
BWorld, I have overcome
By my Asong and the blood of a Bson
Verse 2
Ten thousand rivers run red like my veins
Where the bones of men hum like a rattling cage
For sinew to cling to for wind to remain
In ten thousand lungs for ten thousand days
Breathing like a choir of holes in the ground
Where the cynical have lain, where the cynical go down
Save the gravity of time lets go of her drowned
Like ten thousand sparrows unlocked and unwound
