More Than You Take

Tom: Eb

Intro: Eb Bb Db Cm Cm/Eb

         F
A single voice,
             Eb             Bb
Is joined by multitudes in song,
           F
With every verse,
                Eb             Bb              F
They're finding harmonies that rise to Heaven sure and strong.
Fm                    Eb                 Bb
Richer and richer the soil on which they thrive,
Fm                  Eb              Eb       F
Higher and higher a hymn of what it means to be alive

                            Bb
You've got to give a little more than you take,
                             Dm            Eb
You've got to leave a little more than was here,
                           Bb              F
You maybe prideful of the strides you will make,
         F7        Bb    F
But keep one thing clear,
                          Bb
You're just a player in a much bigger plan,
                              Dm           Eb
And still you have to give it all that you can,
                         Bb          F
The very measure of your soul is at stake,
                            Eb            Bb
You've got to give a little more than you take,

(Db  Cm)

            F
The seasons fly,
        Eb                     Bb
A man stands where a boy once stood,
           F
His path unfolds,
        Eb               Bb           F
And unafraid he walks in service of a greater good,
Fm                    Eb             Bb
Deeper and deeper the lessons he has known,
Fm                Eb            Eb/Eb        F
Over and over the message he is surely being shown

                            Bb
You've got to give a little more than you take,
                             Dm            Eb
You've got to leave a little more than was here,
                           Bb              F
You maybe prideful of the strides you will make,
         F7        Bb    F
But keep one thing clear,
                          Bb
You're just a player in a much bigger plan,
                              Dm           Eb
And still you have to give it all that you can,
                         Bb          F
The very measure of your soul is at stake,
                            Eb
You've got to give a little more than you take.

                         Bb          F
The very measure of your soul is at stake,
                            Eb            Bb
You've got to give a little more than you take.
