You say I've always been a sinner

Until you open up the gates
                      Db
Took me in with those arms that are forgiving
         Db
Washed away from all this hate
           Gb
And now I'm trying just to find
         Gb
A little piece of hope in you
          Db
Could you please just take me back
            Db
To when you took me by the hand

Say hallelujah
