*- The A-A#-Bm is just a walk up the A string...you'll understand when you listen to the song
Verse 1:
[D]I used to live my life in [D/F#]fear
Was [G]worried all the [D]time
[D/F#]
I [G]had no peace of [D]mind
The [A]world became a [Bm]darkened place
A [C]struggle without [Bm]end
[G]Although bitter [D]times those were
The [A-Bb-Bm]days that I began to under[G]stand
I was [A]only a [D]man
Verse 2:
I grew up singing songs in church
With questions in my mind
Then turned my back and ran away
Then one night His presence fell
I wept and shook in it
I fell down and cried dear, Jesus
Rescue me again, I understand
I am only a man
And He saidā?¦
Chorus:
[G]What will it be now
Will you choose Me or keep swimming up [D]stream now
Iā??ve been inside your head
Hearing you [G]scream out
But here I am just take My hand and Iā??l[Bm]l take out
All of the [G]pain, and all of the [D]fear
Outro: (Just D, D/F#, G...listen to the song for the placements)
Iā??ll give You my burdens
Iā??ll give you peace
All of my desires
Iā??ll give you what you need
And what about these chains Lord
Iā??ll set you free
But theyā??re so heavy
Lay them at My feet
Iā??ll lay them at Your feet
Just promise You wonā??t leave
Iā??ll never leave
So where do I go from here Lord
Just follow Me, just follow Me
Iā??ll follow You, wherever You lead
Wherever You leadā?¦
Something like that. There are hammer-ons and pull-offs I didn't write in, but they're
to pick up if you listen to the song. It's pretty easy, just listen to it and you'll
it pretty quick.
