Say Something - by A Great Big World - WorshipMob (extended version)

This is an AMAZING song. But be warned, you may need a kleenex! The first half is really sad, yes, but I love how they wrote the second half as God's answer. 



In this extended version, look at how one of the scripture readings is of the prodigal son with the father running towards his son... and then one of the lines of the second part is "You say, 'I'm still running after you."



I also really like visual element... the way the first lead two singers visually express themselves with their hands and their eyes.



Lastly... if only I could belt the second half like that lead singer...

I don't have the chords yet, I'm actually trying to take the secular version of this song's lead sheet and adapt it so I can play it!

How did this song touch you?

The lyrics I've typed up are as follows:

"Say Something"

Say something I'm giving up on you

I'll be the one if you want me to

Anywhere I would have followed you

Say something I'm giving up on you

And I, I'm feeling so small

It was over my head

And I'm nothing at all

And I, will stumble and fall

I'm still learning to love

Just starting to crawl

Say something I'm giving up on you

I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you

Anywhere I would have followed you

Say something I'm giving up on you

I will swallow my pride

You're the one that I love, 

and I'm saying goodbye

Say something I'm giving up on you

I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you

Anywhere I would have followed you

Say something I'm giving up on you

Say something I'm giving up on you

Say something...

SCRIPTURE READING...

Be strong and courageous...

Come to me all who are weary...

For all who are led by my spirit are my sons and my daughters...

You are my son, today I become your Father...

Today, I'm going back to my father, and I'll say to him, I don't deserve to be called your son...

I'm a good Father. I know you. And I promise, you can hear my voice...

I've been watching you child

Still learning to love

Just starting to crawl

And I am waiting here now

Will you open your heart

I've been here all along

You say "I'm not giving up on you!"

You say "I'm still running after you!

Everywhere, I've been there with you!

Child, I will never give up on you!"

(x2)

Child, I will never give up on you.

Child, I have given my heart to you.

Child, I have given my heart to you.

Child, I will never give up on you.
