Back to You MercyMe
This is definitely one of my favorite songs by MercyMe on this
album. It's very simple, but carries a really good message.
I probably didn't need to write out all the lyrics, but just to be
thorough, they're here for you. I've put the standard chords above
the lyrics, although I think it sounds a little better with the barre
chords, so those are here as well.

-Intro-
[D] [A] [G]
[D] [A] [G]
-Verse I-
[D]Nobody said[A] it would be easy[G],
[D]Nobody said[A] that life's a breez[G]e,
Tossi[D]n' and turnin[A]', oh the wind [G]keeps churnin' like I'm
[D]A little toy boat[A] out on the sea[G].
-Verse II-
[D]If I'm down, d[A]on't count me out[G],
[D]I'll slowly get ba[A]ck on my feet[G],
[D]Stumblin' and fumbli[A]n' but I keep[G] on comin', just as long
[D]As you're not givin[A]' up on me[G].
-Chorus-
And when I t[D]rip, f[A]all, and s[G]low down to a crawl,
And feel like,[D] I got n[A]othin' left to l[G]ose,
Well I may [D]slip, sl[A]ide, and w[G]atch our worlds collide,
But I will[D], hit the ground runnin'[A] back to You[G].
-Verse III-
[D]There are days [A]my head is spinnin[G]g,
Wishin' I[D] could hit the switc[A]h and end this ride[G],
If it cam[D]e to a st[-]op, and someone let[G] me off, I know,
[D]I would just get [A]right back in lin[G]e.
-Chorus-
And when I t[D]rip, f[A]all, and s[G]low down to a crawl,
And feel like,[D] I got n[A]othin' left to l[G]ose,
Well I may [D]slip, sl[A]ide, and w[G]atch our worlds collide,
But I will[D], hit the ground runnin'[A] back to You[G].
-Bridge-
[Bm]What kind of Love would say[A], I love you anyway,[G]
Oh time and time again[D], [A]
Yeah[G] yeah yeah...
[D] [A] [G]
-Chorus (extended)-
And when I t[D]rip, f[A]all, and s[G]low down to a crawl,
And feel like,[D] I got n[A]othin' left to l[G]ose,
Well I may [D]slip, sl[A]ide, and w[G]atch our worlds collide,
But I will[D], hit the ground runnin'[A] back to You[G].
(Repeat chord progression to fade - for the most part)
Yeah and I will, hit the ground runnin' back to You,
Oh, I may slip, slide, and watch our worlds collide,
But I will, yes I will, hit the ground runnin' back to You
Oh yeah, I hit the ground runnin' back to You.
||: I hit the ground, crashin' down, rollin' round, but I rebound,
I get back up and I'll be found, runnin', runnin' back to You :||
I'm runnin' back to You,
Back to You, back to You, back to You...
Runnin' back to you...
