      B
Somewhere between the hot and the cold
    G#m
Somewhere between the new and the old
     F#                          E
Somewhere between who I am and who I used to be
      B
Somewhere in the middle, You'll find me

Somewhere between the wrong and the right
Somewhere between the darkness and the light
Somewhere between who I was and who you're making me
Somewhere in the middle, you'll find me

F#                    E
Just how close can I get,
                     F#                       E
Lord, to my surrender without losing all control

Chorus:
B                              G#m
Fearless warriors in a picket fence
                                   F#
Reckless abandon wrapped in common sence
                                E
Deep water faith in the shallow end
and we are caught in the middle
B                                 G#m
With eyes wide open to the differences,
                                 F#
the God we want and the God who is
                                  E
But will we trade our dreams for His
                         B    G#m
or are we caught in the middle
                      F#   E
Are we caught in the middle

Somewhere between my heart and my hands
Somewhere between my faith and my plans
Somewhere between the safety of the boat
And the crashing waves

Somewhere between a whisper and a roar
Somewhere between the altar and the door
Somewhere between contented peace
And always wanting more
Somewhere in the middle you'll find me

Chorus:
Just how close can I get, Lord, to my surrender
Without losing all control
Fearless warriors in a picket fence
Reckless abandon wrapped in common sense
Deep water faith in the shallow end
And we are caught in the middle
With eyes wide open to the differences
The God we want and the God who is
But will we trade our dreams for His
Or are we caught in the middle
Fearless warriors in a picket fence
Reckless abandon wrapped in common sense
Deep water faith in the shallow end
And we are caught in the middle
With eyes wide open to the differences
The God we want and the God who is
But will we trade our dreams for His
Or are we caught in the middle

B                          G#m
Lord, I feel you in this place and
                     F#
I know you're by my side
                    E
Loving me even on these nights
                        B    G#m
When I'm caught in the middle
                   F#   E B G#m F# E
I'm caught In the middle
