AmG/A
i kept the right ones out and let the wrong ones in
C7F
had an angel of mercy to see me through all my sins
Fm/G#C/G
there were times in my life when i was goin’ insane
Am/F#F
tryin’ to walk through the pain
AmG/A
when i lost my grip and i hit the floor
C7F
yeah, i thought i could leave but couldn’t get out the door
Fm/G#C/G
i was so sick and tired of livin’ a lie
Am/F#F
i was wishin’ that i would die
chorus
CEmFEmGG7
it’s amazing, with the blink of an eye you finally see the light
CEmFEmGG7
it’s amazing when the moment arrives that you know you’ll be alright
FEmD7G7(III) CC/B
it’s amazing and i’m sayin’ a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight
AmD7
that one last shot’s a permanent vacation
FCC/B
and how high can you fly with broken wings’
AmD7
life’s a journey not a destination
FG
and i just can’t tell just what tomorrow brings
(same as verse)
you have to learn to crawl before you learn to walk
but i just couldn’t listen to all that righteous talk
well, i was out on the street, just tryin’ to survive
scratchin’ to stay alive
chorus
