This song is public domain, but Phil Wickham does some cool stuff with it. Again, Blogger's editor will not allow me to place the chords correctly above the words, so watch the video below to get the feel for it. Also, Phil tunes his guitr down a half step to Eb for a richer sound, while making it easier to play the strings. I also did this when I played it last.
Come Thou Fount (Robert Robinson) - Public Domain
as played by Phil Wickham
INTRO: E B E/G# A B E
VERSE 1:
E B
Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing,
E/G# A B E
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
E B
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
E/G# A B E
Call for songs of loudest praise.
C#m B
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
A B C#m
Sung by flaming tongues above;
E B
Praise the mount! I'm fixed upon it,
E A B E
Mount of Thy redeeming love.
E B E/G# A B E
VERSE 2:
E B
Oh, to grace how great a debtor,
E/G# A B E
daily I'm constrained to be!
C#m E/G#
Let Thy goodness, like a fetter,
E/G# A B E
bind my wand'ring heart to Thee.
C#m B
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
A B C#m
prone to leave the God I love;
B E B
Here's my heart, Oh, take and seal it,
E/G# A B E
Seal it for Thy courts above.
E B E/G# A B E
VERSE 2
OUTRO
B E B
Here's my heart, Oh, take and seal it,
E/G# A B E
Seal it for Thy courts above.
