You lean a lot harder onto faith when your luck runs out
              F#
The pain cuts to the nerve
             C#
And I'm no stranger to the hurt

When I was a child, I walked like a child

                    B
And hope they come back around
             G#m7                  F#/Bb
And if they do, you let them in a little more
         B
Hit your knees and thank the good Lord

And if they don't, oh, you thank him all the same
