STRICKEN - Capo @ 2
C
I’ve been stricken. I’ve been pierced thru the heart
Am
I’ve been stricken. I don’t know where to start
F G C
I am chilling but I’m willing. I’ve been stricken

I’ve been shaken. Shaken down to the bone
I’ve been taken. Maybe I’m going home
I wonder as I wander, “Could I be mistaken?”

G F C
Wounds heal so slowly, it feels like forever
F C. G
Wandering ever…

              C

I’ve been broken. I’ve been broken before
Am
Break me open. I don’t care any more.
F G C F C
What’s to choose. What’s to lose. Break me open.

G F C
Somewhere out yonder I hear the thunder
F C G
I think I’ll wander out there…

Somewhere out yonder I hear the thunder
I think I’ll wander out there…

I’ve been stricken. I’ve been pierced thru the heart
I’ve been stricken. I don’t know where to start
I am chilling but I’m willing, ‘cause I’m stricken…
