Chorus 2- This is where the guitar part gets a bit hard to figure out. This probably 
isn't the way they play it, but it sounds fine in a worship band.

The first time through the chorus, play the same three notes as the verse/PC:
e|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-9~--------------------7~-------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------8~----------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
  Commission my soul... fire uncontrollable... this great cause...
  Open my eyes...       reason I'm alive...    ready now...

The second time through, the band gets a little louder, so the guitar adds more depth to 
the notes:  (you may also want to overdrive it more/quarter-note delay)
e|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-13~-------------------11~-------------------8~---------------------------|
D|--x---------------------x--------------------x----------------------------|
A|-11~--------------------9~-------------------6~---------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
   Commission my soul... fire uncontrollable... this great cause...
   Open my eyes...       reason I'm alive...    ready now...
On the last chorus, the band goes all out, so there are some options here. You can keep 
doing the last part, do the full power chords, or if there are two elec. guitars, one 
can do the power chords an octave lower. My preferred way is this:

to save the lost
I'll follow You

Fill:

In the fill, the lead singer sings “Follow You!” 3 times. I like to play each chord once 
with a quarter-note delay, but you could strum 4 times as well. The first and second 
time through, the last two strums (or delays) will be the start of the next repeat.

Bridge:
The bridge is another tricky spot to figure exactly what the guitarist is playing. I 
stick to the same things as before (in the verses, chorus, and fill), for ease for 
memorisation/simplicity. Feel free to experiment with this, it's not set in stone.

The bridge is repeated 5 times. Each time he sings “open the heavens wide” 3x, then 
“Pour out Your Spirit on us” once.

First time- No guitar

Second time-
e|--------------|
B|-9~---7~------|
G|-----------8~-|  x2
D|--------------|
A|--------------|
E|--------------|

Third time-

e|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|

G|-13~-------------------11~--------------------8~--------------------------|
D|--x---------------------x---------------------x---------------------------|
A|-11~--------------------9~--------------------6~--------------------------|

Fourth/fifth time

e|------------------------|
B|--8----8-----8----8-----|
G|--x----x-----x----x-----|   x2
D|--6----6-----6----6-----|
A|------------------------|
E|------------------------|
Feel free to experiment with the end of the fifth bridge, it's kind of a free-for -all at the end

That's it!
Have fun playing this, it's a great worship song!
