// Intro
G C D C (2x)
// Verse
[G] She was so beautiful[D]
[C]Lightning in her [G]hair
She was in his [D]sight[C]
[G] But the flashing lights[D]
Of re[C]sentment filled his [G]eyes
Left him scared and [D]blind[C]
// Pre-chorus
[Am] Life is [Em]cold now
[Am] He wishes he could [D]see
// Chorus
[G] Forgiveness [D]walks right by him
[Em] But [C]he can't see her [G]face
It's [D]bitterness that blinds him[Em] [C]
[G] Oh, she [D]walks up to him
[Em] He would [C]look her in the [G]eyes
If he [D]still believed in [Em]grace
[C]Still believed in grace
[G] [C] [D] [C]
// Verse
He used to dance with her
This old man in a chair
Now he don't walk no more
They used to dance like the wind
Until a storm blew him down
Left him broken on the floor
// Pre-chorus
Life is slow now
He wishes he could reach
// Chorus
Forgiveness dances by him
But he can't join her
Cuz bitterness leads instead
Oh, he reaches for him
And he would take her hand
If she could raise the dead
Oh, she could raise the dead
// Pre-Chorus
Looking back now
At what others have missed
// Pre-Chorus
I am pleading
For redemption's kiss
// Chorus
Forgiveness walks up to me
And I will join her
Cuz bitterness leads to death
Oh, she reaches for me
And I will take her hand
Together we will dance
Oh, together we will dance
G C D C (4x)
