Verse 1:
 A minorAm    FF            C majorC
If I were You I would've given up on me by now
            A minorAm     FF
I would've labeled me a lost cause
              C majorC
'Cause I feel just like a lost cause
 A minorAm     FF               C majorC
If I were You I would've turned around and walked away
            A minorAm      FF
I would've labeled me beyond repair
            C majorC
'Cause I feel like I'm beyond repair

Pre-Chorus:
      A minorAm  G+G     FF      C majorC

Somehow You're still here

With wide open arms

From the God who stays

Verse 2:
  A minorAm     FF
I used to hide
            C majorC
Every time I thought I let You down
             A minorAm      FF
I always thought I had to earn my way
              C majorC
But I'm learning You don't work that way
