Standard Tuning
Capo 3rd Fret
This is how I play this song, I think it sounds pretty good. I believe "officially" the
verses are played slightly different, but I play them both the same. Also "officially"
are alot more chords written down, but I leave a few out to make it easier to strum
of pluck like the actual song.
He is here for the broken
life to the one who is undone
He is peace to the wounded
hope for the helpless one
He is here
He is here
CHORUS
Be still my soul be still
Be still my soul be still
Wait patiently upon the Lord
Be still my soul be still
I strum A-G-Asus4-A through here
When the waves rise against me
and the wind tries to draw me away
I will stand on the mountain
safe in your arms I will sing... I will sing
CHORUS
Be still... and know he is God
He is here He is here
There are some subtle chords changes in the Bridge within the G spectrum, but I cant
them down, I usually just ad-lib dropping a few strings off the G until I can make it to
Asus4.
The ending is played the same as the chorus except I personally play the last line like so:
Be still my soul, be still....
