                G#
Leave it all behind
                G#
Leave it all behind
                C#
Leave it all behind
                G#
Leave it all behind

                 G#
I have what you need
But you keep on searching
                   Fm
I've done all the work
But you keep on working
                        D#
When you're running on empty
                        C#
And you can't find the remedy
                   G#   C#  G#
Just come to the well.

You can spend your whole life
Chasing what's missing
But that empty inside
It just isn't going to listen
When nothing can satisfy
And the world leaves you high and dry
Just come to the well

Chorus:
              C#                   G#
And all who thirst will thirst no more
             C#
And all who search will find what their
 G#    Fm   D#
souls long for
                A#m                   Fm
The world will try, but it can never fill
                   C# D#                 G# C# G#
So leave it all behind, and come to the well

So bring me your heart
No matter how broken
Just come as you are
When your last prayer is spoken
Just rest in my arms a while
You'll feel the change my child
When you come to the well

Chorus

   C# G#
Yeah
                C# G# Fm D#
Leave it all behind
                A#m                   Fm
The world will try, but it can never fill
                  C#  D# C#
So leave it all behind

And now that you're full
Of love beyond measure
Your joy's gonna flow
Like a stream in the desert
Soon all the world will see
that living water is found in me
Because you came to the well

Chorus

Leave it all behind, leave it all behind...
