Intro:
G   D   C   G
C   G   D/F#   G

Verse 1:
G              D       C            G
I woke up this morning to a garbage truck
C                   G                D/F#
Looks like this ol' horseshoe's done run out of luck
G         D     C                G
If I came home, would you let me in?
C           G              D/F#       G
Fry me some pork chops and forgive my sin?
Chorus:
C                               G
Surround me with your boundless love
C                               G
Confound me with your boundless love
G                   G7   C
I was drowning in a sea, lost as I could be
         G                  D         G
When you found me with your boundless love

Verse 2:
G                D        C              G
Sometimes my ol' heart is like a washing machine
C           G             D/F#
It bounces around 'til my soul comes clean
G            D         C           G
And when I'm clean and hung out to dry
C                  G      D/F#     G
I'm gonna make you laugh until you cry

Chorus:
C                               G
Surround me with your boundless love
C                               G
Confound me with your boundless love
G                   G7   C
I was drowning in a sea, lost as I could be
         G                  D         G
When you found me with your boundless love

Break:
G   D   C   G
C   G   D/F#   G

Verse 3:
G     D               C              G
If by chance I should find myself at risk
C         G         D/F#
A-falling from this jagged cliff
G      D            C    G
I look below, and I look above
C      G               D/F#      G
I'm surrounded by your boundless love

Chorus:
C                               G
Surround me with your boundless love
C                               G
Confound me with your boundless love
G                   G7   C
I was drowning in a sea, lost as I could be
         G                  D         G
When you found me with your boundless love
C       G                  D         G
You dumbfound me with your boundless love
C       G                  D         G
You surround me with your boundless love
G  C  G  D  G

Note:
The first two lines of the chorus (and the last two lines of the last chorus)
should be proceeded by a bass note walk down from G to C as so...
