Things That I'm Afraid Of chords by Ross King

Intro:
G

Verse 1:

G
When I am shaking and my heart’s pounding

C                      Em          D
You always take me and make me lay down in

G                                    C   Em   D
Peaceful fields where I can clear my head.

C
‘Cause I get so overcome with anxiety

C
Like there’s an enemy living inside of me

       Em
Like a mocker yelling out telling lies to me


Chorus:

      D
And I don’t feel brave, but I don’t have to be

       C                    G
‘Cause I walked through the valley of shadows

D                Em
And it scared me half to death

    C              G                D     Em              C
But You’re with me everywhere I go --  so I don’t give up yet

              G             D            Em
My fear would surely kill me if I didn’t know the truth

    C                G             D        G
The things that I’m afraid of are afraid of You.

G


Verse 2:

G
When my emotions turn against me

    C                Em       D
Not faith nor reason could convince me

     G                                   C  D  Em
That You have patience left to fight for me

          C
When my depression is affecting every ounce of me

C
I can get the medication and the counseling

      Em
Still I can hear the fear calling out to me


Chorus:

      D
And I don’t feel brave, but I don’t have to be

       C                    G
‘Cause I walked through the valley of shadows

D                Em
And it scared me half to death

    C              G                D     Em              C
But You’re with me everywhere I go --  so I don’t give up yet

              G             D            Em
My fear would surely kill me if I didn’t know the truth

    C                G             D        G
The things that I’m afraid of are afraid of You.


Bridge:

Em            D                                 C
You prepare a table for me right in front of my worst enemies

Em                   D
You’re as calm and relaxed as can be.

G
There’s no place where the demons won’t find me

    C                             G        D
But just wait ‘til they see who’s standing behind me.


Chorus 2:

G
I walked through the valley of shadows

    D            Em
And it scared me half to death

    C              G               D   Em                 C
But You’re with me everywhere I go --  so I don’t give up yet

              G             D            Em
My fear would surely kill me if I didn’t know the truth

    C               G              D
The things that I’m afraid of are afraid of You.

              G             D            Em
My fear would surely kill me if I didn’t know the truth

The things that I’m afraid of are afraid of You.
