Indescribable Cifras

Words and music by Laura Story and Jesse Reeves, CCLI #4403076
©2004 Laura Stories | sixsteps Music | worshiptogether.com songs.
 
As performed by Chris Tomlin on the album "Arriving", using chords in the key of G
capoed 4 to the key of B (Composer's original key, Bb). (I don't capo because... puberty)
 
Meter is 6/8. The tempo is (1/8) one-eight  = 180, or more properly (3/8) dotted-eight = 60.
 
All of the previous submissions I've reviewed have omitted Introduction, Instrumental, Interlude, and Ending.
 
The chords/changes are simplified from (but still true to, excepting the changed introduction, ending,
and elimination of the instrumental) the visual version on the ChrisTomlinVEVO channel on YouTube.
 
The ultimate-guitar.com automatically inserted lyrics are incorrect according to both Tomlin and
the composer's lyrics via CCLI, "Ev'ry creature unique in (not 'and') the song that it sings"
