Were It Not For Grace Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
[A]Time
measured [G]out [D]my days.
[A]Life car[G]ried me [D]along.
In my soul I yearned [G]to follow [F#sus4]God
[F#]But knew I[A]'d never b[Bm]e so strong
[A]I l[Bm]ooked hard [Bb]at this world
To learn [C]how heaven could be [F]gained
Just to end where I [Bb]began,
where hu[Gm]man effort is [Em]all in v[A]ain.
[D]Were it not [G]for grace,
[A]I can tell y[D]ou where I[A]'d b[Bm]e.
Wandering down [Em]some
pointless road to [Asus4]nowhere
[A]With my [Dsus4]salva tio[D]n unt[A]o me
[Bm]I know how that woul[G]d go
[A]The battles I would fac[F#m]e[Bsus4]
[B]Forever run[Em]ning, but losing the [A]race,
were it [D]not for [Dsus4]grace.[D]
[A]So here is [G]all my [D]pra[A]ise,
ex[G]pressed with all [D]my heart.
Offered to [G]a friend
who took my [F#sus4]place
[F#]And ran [Bsus4]a course I could n[Bm]ot start
And when he saw [Bb]in full
Just [C]how much his love [F]would cost
He still went the final [Bb]mile
Between me [Gm]and heaven
So I would not [Em]be lo[A]st
But [D]were it not [G]for [A]grace
I can tell [D]you where, [A]where [Bm]I'd be
Wandering down [Em]some
pointless road to [Asus4]nowhere.
[A]With my sal[D]vation up to [A]me,[Bm]
I know how that [G]would go,
[A]the battles I I [F#m]would [Bsus4]face
[B]Forever run[Em]ning, but losing [A]the race
Were it [Bm]not for [G]grace
[D]Forever run[Em]ning, but losing [Asus4]the race
[A]were it not [D]for grace.
[Bm][G]
