"Does Anybody Hear Her?"
- Casting Crowns
Capo 1 (Key of F)
Verse 1:
She is running a hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction
She is trying but the canyon's ever widening in the depths of her cold heart
So she sets out on another misadventure just to find,
She's another two years older and she's three more steps behind
Chorus:
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
Or does anybody even know she's going down today?
Under the shadows of our steeple with all the lost and lonely people,
Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me
Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?
Verse 2:
She is yearning for shelter and affection that she never found at home
She is searching for a hero to ride in, to ride in and save the day
…And in walks her Prince Charming and he knows just what to say
Momentary lapse of reason and she gives herself away
Bridge:
If judgment looms under every steeple, if lofty glances from lofty people,
Can't see past her scarlet letter and we never even met her (x2)
Outro:
He is running a hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction…
There's only five chords to the song, and because the chords are in the key of E
I have alternate chords to make it easier for those who are "Barre Challenged".
E is the only chord that is normal. The idea is to keep the B & E strings (1 & 2) open.
So for the F#m you will have to stretch your middle finger towards the head of the
guitar a bit so you can hit the note on the G string. A, B, and C#m are basically
power chords.

This is honestly my first tab... posted online. I couldn't believe how many times people
have tried this song and yet still hadn't gotten it close to right, so I finally got
the nerve to register and post my own. Blessings, and remember to brush up on your
music theory!
