Key: D
Introduction:
A
There were nights where I was sure
D
I wouldn't see the morning sun
F#m
And there were days that seemed so dark
E D
I couldn't wait for night to come
A
I couldn't stand to think about how
D
My life used to be
F#m
And how without a single warning
E
It all slipped away from me
(Riff)
A
Like a fool I thought I could fight
D
The shadows on my own
F#m
To the dark I was no stranger
E D
But this was stronger than I'd known
A
And by the time I knew that I was
D
too deep I'd gone too far
F#m
And the light that used to guide me
E
Had faded from my heart
D F#m E
And I found myself in places I thought I'd never go
A D F#m E
Surrounded by stangers I was so far from home
A D
And I don't know how you found me
A Bm F#m E
All I know is I owe everything to you
Yes I do
D A
And I thank you for my heart
D
I thank you for my life
F#m
And I thank god for grace and mercy
E
And that you became my wife
D A
I'm seeing for the first time
D
The stars, the sun and moon
F#m
But they've got nothing on the power
E
Of this love I have for you
D A
And I thank you, thank you
(Riff)
A
Now people say they'll stand beside you
D
They swear they never leave
F#m
But when the rain started falling
E
You know it only fell on me
D A
And it was hard to keep believing in myself
D F#m
When all I felt was so much pain and guilt and shame
E
I couldn't even ask for help
D F#m E
I don't know if I believe in other lives
But when you came
A D F#m
There was something so familar
E
About the way you said my name
A D A
And the whole world started turning
Bm E
And I swear that I'd been born again brand new
And it's all because of you
D A
And I thank you for my heart
D
I thank you for my life
F#m
And I thank god for grace and mercy
E
And that you became my wife
D A
I'm seeing for the first time
D
The stars, the sun and moon
F#m
But they've got nothing on the power
E
Of this love I have for you
D F#m A E)
And I thank you
Bm
And I've seen so many things
F#m
That I just can't explain
Bm
But the miracle of miracles is how
E
With your love I was saved
(Riff)
A
And I thank you
D A
And I thank you for my heart
D
I thank you for my life
F#m
And I thank god for grace and mercy
E
And that you became my wife
D A
I'm seeing for the first time
D
The stars, the sun and moon
F#m
But they've got nothing on the power
E
Of all this love I give to you
D A
And I thank you for my heart
D
I thank you for my life
F#m
And I thank god for grace and mercy
E
And that you became my wife
D A
The day I started breathing
D
Was the day you took my hand
F#m
And until the day I die
E
Baby, I'll forever be your man
D A
And I thank you, I thank you
(Riff)
