My Only


John Mark McMillan My Only From "Hope Anthology Volume 1" and re-released on "The Medicine" Tabbed by thechadmiller (Twitter) **To get the proper sound for the rhythm guitar, play this capo 7 in the C position (hit transpose up 5 half steps to get the chords)** When you play it Capo 7, leave the E string open on the three chords throughout the verse to get that sound you hear on "The Medicine" version. Here it is in standard G position for the lead guitar and bass, no capo. Intro x2: G - D/F# - A Verse 1 G D/F# A G D/F# A All day long, we are sinking just like stones into the shadow of Your kindness G D/F# A G In this shade, between the wingspan of Your face is D/F# A the only place where we can bed these burdens down (so I) Pre-Chorus Bm7 A G Bm7 A G Lift my eyes up to the hills... Who is gonna help me now? Chorus Em7 D/F# G A G A G You're my only, You're my only, You're my only hope Intro Verse 2 G D/F# A G D/F# A Tangled up, in the great ridiculous, way You love. It is the only way to live. G D/F# A G There's no escape, when You look at me that way D/F# A Staring like a deer into the headlights of Your praises (so I) Pre - Chorus Chorus 2 Em7 D/F# G A G A G You're my only, You're my only, You're my only hope G A Bm7 E7 G A Bm7 You're my only, You're my only, You're my only hope Bridge G D/F# A and You come like the sun with pockets full of redemption G D/F# A and You come with the sun, with the sun Main riff e|---------------------------------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------10--------------------10-----------| G|---------11~~~-----------11~~~---------------------------------------| D|--9--12--------------12--------------11h12-11~~~--11h12-----12-11----| A|-----------------12--------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------| this position works better for me e|----------------------------5---------------5------------------------| B|--------7~~~---------7~~~--------------------------------------------| G|-----7------------7-----------6h7-6~~~--6h7----7-6-------------------| D|--9------------7-----------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------| This is the backbone of the entire song.
