Biography:
Derek Walsh Webb (born May 27, 1974 in Memphis, Tennessee) is a singer-songwriter, and a part-time member of the band Caedmon's Call. In 2003, Derek left Caedmon's Call to pursue a solo career with the exception of occasionally still touring and singing with them. His first solo album, She Must and Shall Go Free is notable for causing controversy in Contemporary Christian Music circles; some Christian retailers refused to stock the album for its use of "strong" language.

There are days I don't believe the words I say
F C/G
Like a life that I'm not living
F C/G G G6 G7
A song that I'm not singing but to you
C/G Csus C/G
There are times that I believe I'm satisfied
F C/G
Like an intimate connection
F C/G G G6 G7
Despite this bad reception with you
Am D
Cause I can't afford to pay
Am D
For most of what I say
Am C/B C
So it's a lucky thing
F E
That the truth's public domain
Am E
And I am like a mockingbird
F C/G
I've got no new song to sing
Am E
And I am like an amplifier
F G
I just tell you what I've heard
Csus C/G
Oh, I'm like a mockingbird
Csus C/G Csus C/G
And yes, it's true that I need this more than you
F C/G
Like one whose name is many
F C/G G G6 G7
Have mercy, please don't send me away
Am D
And I’ll do all I can
Am D
To be a better man
Am C/B C
Oh I’ll clean up this act
F E
And be worse than we started
