Verse 1:

The morning comes like an enemy soldier

I feel the weight across my shoulders

I feel the shadows getting colder
C majorC Am/C
But that ain’t you
C majorC Am/C
This noose ain’t getting any looser
C majorC Am/C
I get so fearful about the future
A minorAm G+G FF
I hear the shame of my accuser
C majorC E7E7
But that ain’t you
Chorus:
FF C majorC
I found strength, but it wasn’t what I thought

I found out the day I lost myself
Was the day that I found God

I keep on looking for my own solutions

But that ain’t you, that ain’t you no
Chorus:
FF C majorC
My enemies weren’t the ones I had fought
FF C majorC

Was the day that I found God

Where is God out in the darkness?
A minorAm F2
’Cause the voices in my head ain’t talking honest

They’re saying maybe you made us then forgot us

But that ain’t you, that ain’t you no
Chorus:
FF C majorC
And all I know is that I still don’t know a lot
FF C majorC
I don’t know how it ends, I’m in the middle of this plot

Yeah, and I found grace for the man that I am not
A minorAm G+G
Yeah, I found out the day I lost myself

Was the day that I found God
