This song is made up of three parts: Verse type 1 (V1), Verse type 2
(V2) and Chorus (CH). I have listed the chords for each line until
the first chorus so you can get the hang of it. The song pattern is
V1-V2-V1-V2-CH-V1-V2-CH, with the last part of the chorus repeated at
the very end. It's easy to hear when you listen.

standing like a statue in the sea

V1:
jesus, my life
does not feel the same
new things happen every day
things i can?t explain
but i am not a man of faith
i?m a man of truth
but is this feeling in my heart
is this feeling proof
V2:
when you do not know
you know
and when you know
you do not know
and when you think you do you die
and when you do do not think you grow
are we left here in the dark
or are we left here in the light
it seems to me that both are true
and it?s up to us to know what?s right
CH:
all i do is doubt you god
all is do is love you god
all i do is question you
what else can i do
this world was never solid ground
religion cannot help me now
all i do is search for you
what else can i do
and when i say i search for you
i mean i search for peace
i search for hope
i search for love
and one day for release
E C#m
god give me strength to accept the things
A F#m E
that i just cannot know
E C#m
and even when i lose control
A F#m E
i will not let you go
