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.
D
He is here for the broken
Bm7 G Asus A
life to the one who is undone
D
He is peace to the wounded
Bm7 Em7 Asus A
hope for the helpless one
G
He is here
Asus A
He is here
CHORUS
D Asus G
Be still my soul be still
Em7 D A
Be still my soul be still
D Am G
Wait patiently upon the Lord
Em7 Asus D
Be still my soul be still
I strum A-G-Asus-A through here
D
When the waves rise against me
Bm7 G Asus A
and the wind tries to draw me away
D
I will stand on the mountain
Bm7 Em7 Asus
safe in your arms I will sing... I will sing
CHORUS
G
Be still... and know he is God
Asus A
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
Asus.
The ending is played the same as the chorus except I personally play the last line like so:
Em7 Asus G
Be still my soul, be still....
When I submitted this, it changed some of the chords.
I play the Bm7 using an Am shape, barred on the second fret back from the capo.
The Asus I play is the G and D strings on the 2nd fret with a B string on the 3rd.
and the Em7 I play is a full Em chord with a B string on the 3rd fret.
