I saw this song on the reuest list so here it is.

  This is a pretty cool intro, and it's pretty close to what's
on the
song on the "Songs From the Loft" album.  
This is pretty much a combination of what the 2 or 3 
guitars and a keyboard are playing at once.
  I'v found that it's sometimes easier to sing (in a group) 
when the key is raised a step (ie. capo @ 2nd fret)

Guitar:
   C         Csus          C        C9

Bass:

Repeat that 3 times, and on the fourth, go into the first verse


Verse 1:
C9             C           Csus
   I've got my hope set high
C               G            G2
   That's why I came tonight
   G         F2
   I need to see the truth
             G                     (Play intro once after the 
   I need to see the light   <- 2x         first time through)

Pre-Chorus:
             C              E
'cause I can do my best and pray to the father:
        Am        Am7/G      D/F#
But the one thing I ought to know by now

  The chorus has a guys part, and a girls part.  The guys 
sing first, and the girls echo them.


Chorus:
               C                        Csus      C
Guys:  When it all comes down
Girls:                             When it all comes down
               G                           G2    G
Guys:  When it all comes down
Girls:                             When it all comes down
                 F                         C                    
        G
Guys:  If theres anything        good that happens in life, it's
from Jesus
Girls:                   anything          happens in life      
     Jesus

Verse 2:
I've got my hope set high
And like a star at night
Out of the deepest dark
It shines the purest light

I've got my hope set high
Beyind the wrong an right
I need t see the truth 
I need to see the light
