Lyrics

(Bm)Heart break’s a (G)bit ter sound.

(D)Know it well; it’s ring ing in my (F#m)ears, and I can’t un der stand (Bm)why I’m not (G)fixed by now.

(D)Begged, and I have plead ed, “Take this (F#m)pain,” but I’m still bleed ing.

(Bm)Heart trusts You for cer tain, (D)head says it’s not work ing.

(Bm)I’m stuck here, still hurt ing, but You tell me

You’re mak ing a mas

ter piece.

You’re shap ing the soul

in me.

You’re mov ing where I

can’t see, and all I am is in Your hands.

You’re tak ing me all

a part, like it was Your plan from the start, to fin ish Your work

of art for all to see.

You’re mak ing a mas

ter piece.

(Bm)Guess I’m Your (G)can vas,

(D)beau ti ful, black and blue, (F#m)paint ed in mer cy’s hue.

(Bm)I don’t see (G)past this, but You see me (Dmaj7)now, who I’ll be then, there at the (A)end, stand ing there as

Your mas

ter piece.

You’re mak ing a mas

ter piece.

(Bm)Heart trusts You for cer tain, (D)head says it’s not work ing.

You’re mak ing a mas

ter piece.

You’re shap ing the soul

in me.

You’re mov ing where I

can’t (A)see, and all I am is in Your hands.

You’re tak ing me all

a part, like it was Your plan from the start, to fin ish Your work

of art for all to see.

You’re mak ing a mas

ter piece.

You’re mak ing a mas

ter piece.

I’ll be Your mas ter piece.

Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.
Can I change the key of "Masterpiece" to match my voice or capo?
Yes. The original is in D, but the live transpose control shifts the whole song up or down semitones until the melody sits in your range (or maps to an easier guitar shape / capo position) — the on-screen chords and the backing move with it.
Can I slow "Masterpiece" down to learn the words and chords?
Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
