The Seeker
Written & Recorded by Dolly Parton
(Capo on 4)
Intro.: (G) x 8 bars
(G)I am a seeker, a poor sinful creature
There is no (C)weaker than I (G)am
I am a seeker, you are a teacher
You are a (C)reacher so reach (D)down
(Chorus)
Won't you (G)reach out and lead me, (C)guide me and (G)keep me
In the shelter of your care each day
'Cause I am a seeker, you are a keeper
You (C)are the (G)leader, won't you (D)show me the (G)way
(G)I am a vessel that's empty and useless
I (C)am a (G)bad seed that (C)fell by the (G)way
I am a loser that wants to be a winner
And you (C)are my (G)last (C)hope, don't (D)turn me a-(G)way
(G)I am a seeker, a poor sinful creature
There is no (C)weaker than I (G)am
I am a seeker, you are a teacher
You are a (C)reacher so reach (D) down
(Chorus)
Won't you (G)reach out and lead me, (C)guide me and (G)keep me, Lord
In the shelter of your care each day
'Cause I am a seeker, you are a keeper
You (C)are the (G)leader, won't you (D)show me the (G)way
(Chorus 2)
Oh, I know (G)you are a mountain from (C)which there flows a (G)fountain
So let it's water wash my sins away
'Cause I am a seeker, you are a keeper
You (C)are the (G)leader, won't you (D)show --- me the (C)way --- (G) -----
