N.C
It was I that was lost,
They that were searching,
It was I that was weak,
They had the power
So I went with the others
To the bus that was waiting,
We drove out for miles
To a place in the country,
       G            
We were ten to a room,
                  F
The windows don’t open,
       G             
We were woken for prayer
               F
At four in the morning,
       G               
We were wired with hunger,
             F                   G           
With energy crackling through the corridors,
             F
I could hear chanting.

(G F)x4

    G
The hall was lit with candles,
    G/B
And all the light was golden,
  Bb
I felt something bursting,

Something down inside me,
        G
We were singing out aloud 
      G/B
About God and love and healing,
Bb
Everything was moving
I’m on the floor kneeling,

    G
I am part of something,          }
                F                 }x4 
I am one of the chosen,          }

G G/B Bb
        One of the chosen
G G/B Bb
        One of the chosen

N.C
There is something in us all
That wants to surrender,
To be guided through it all
Like star eyed children,
      G
And I hated the world
                 G#
As I’ve come to know it,
        G
And they hate the world
                   G#
With just the same vengeance,
      G
And I, I wanted reasons
                       F
And they, they gave me reasons,
      G
And I, I wanted purpose
                       F
And they, they gave me purpose,
    G
And here on the inside
                   F
All the lights are blazing,
    G
The view of the old world,
                     F
Is dull and grey and joyless,
G                                   F
Let it burn in side me, let it burn inside me,
G                                   F
Let it burn in side me, let it burn inside me,
         Em
We’re the holy fools,
We are the fearless,
         Bb
We’re the holy fools,
We are the fearless.

G G/B Bb
        We are the fearless
G G/B Bb
        We are the fearless
    G
I am part of something,
    G/B
I am one of the chosen,
    Bb
I am part of something,
I am one of the chosen,
    G
I am part of something,
    G/B
I am one of the chosen,
    Bb
I am part of something,
I am one of the chosen,
     Em
I am part of something,
I am one of the chosen,
     Bb
I am part of something,
I am one of the chosen,
G
 Part  of something,
G/B
  One of the chosen,
    Bb
I am part of something,
I am one of the chosen
    G
I am part of something,
    G/B                 Bb
I am one of the chosen.
