Artist: MercyMe Album: The Generous Mr. Lovewell Chords by: Kurtis This is definitely one of my favorite songs by MercyMe on this album. It's very simple, but carries a really good message. I probably didn't need to write out all the lyrics, but just to be thorough, they're here for you. I've put the standard chords above the lyrics, although I think it sounds a little better with the barre chords, so those are here as well. Chords used: D A G Bm D A G E|--5------5------3----|-- B|--7------5------3----|-- G|--7------6------4----|-- D|--7------7------5----|-- A|--5------7------5----|-- E|---------5------3----|-- -Intro- D A G D A G -Verse I- D A G Nobody said it would be easy, D A G Nobody said that life's a breeze, D A G Tossin' and turnin', oh the wind keeps churnin' like I'm D A G A little toy boat out on the sea. -Verse II- D A G If I'm down, don't count me out, D A G I'll slowly get back on my feet, D A G Stumblin' and fumblin' but I keep on comin', just as long D A G As you're not givin' up on me. -Chorus- D A G And when I trip, fall, and slow down to a crawl, D A G And feel like, I got nothin' left to lose, D A G Well I may slip, slide, and watch our worlds collide, D A G But I will, hit the ground runnin' back to You. -Verse III- D A G There are days my head is spinning, D A G Wishin' I could hit the switch and end this ride, D - G If it came to a stop, and someone let me off, I know, D A G I would just get right back in line. -Chorus- D A G And when I trip, fall, and slow down to a crawl, D A G And feel like, I got nothin' left to lose, D A G Well I may slip, slide, and watch our worlds collide, D A G But I will, hit the ground runnin' back to You. -Bridge- Bm A G What kind of Love would say, I love you anyway, D A Oh time and time again, G Yeah yeah yeah...
